Delicious Tycobrahe-style Octave-up Fuzz Tones

Want to nail Hendrix's Band of Gypsys-era fuzz tone? If so, the Fulltone Octafuzz OF-2 is among the most faithful Tycobrahe-style octave-up fuzzes we've heard here at Sweetwater. But that's not all it does — flip its Octa/Fuzz switch to the Fuzz setting, and you'll conjure up some of the nastiest non-Octavia grunge tones you've ever experienced. The Octafuzz is a breeze to dial in, courtesy of its streamlined 2-knob layout, and it responds beautifully to your guitar's volume control. This fuzz guitar effects pedal boasts the same brand of transistors as a 1970s original, along with a near-bulletproof Fulltone-made 3PDT footswitch and a compact — yet eminently robust — steel housing. Tycobrahe-style fuzzes are among the most coveted around, and few stompboxes deliver the tonal goods as effectively as the Octafuzz OF-2.

Note: This pedal runs on a 9-volt battery or a reversed-polarity power adapter with a positive center pin. Using this pedal with a standard power adapter will damage both the adapter and the pedal, and it could be a fire hazard. For more information, call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer.

Includes Fulltone's Octafuzz mod

The Octafuzz OF-2 includes Fulltone's popular mod, which is accessed using the pedal's Octa/Fuzz switch. In the Octa position, the pedal delivers a standard Tycobrahe-style octave-up sound with a subtle ring-modulation character. This setting works best with the neck pickup on a single-coil-equipped guitar, especially if you play single notes on the higher frets. The Fuzz position activates the mod, removing the octave-up effect and increasing the nastiness factor for ultra-distorted fuzz tones with more compression and incredible sustain at any volume.

Fulltone Octafuzz OF-2 Fuzz/Octave Pedal Features:

  • Faithful re-creation of a Tycobrahe-style octave-up fuzz circuit
  • 2-knob layout is a breeze to dial in
  • Octa/Fuzz switch toggles between standard octave-up fuzz and modded non-Octavia grunge tones
  • Boasts the same brand of transistors as a 1970s original
  • True-bypass switching with a near-bulletproof Fulltone-made 3PDT footswitch
  • Compact, yet robust, steel housing with an eye-catching powder-coated finish

Exactly the pedal I wanted

This pedal does the Hendrix octave thing from Band of Gypsies just fine with my Strat, as hoped for. I had a big box Octafuzz that I was able to sell for several times what I paid for it, but was missing the sound in my rig. I got this as a replacement and I think it is better than the old big box version. The octave is much more prominent in this unit and the fuzz only sound is more useable. If you are looking at this pedal, keep in mind it a very specific sort of thing. It isn't a POG or other polyphonic pedal. It is a color or special effect. It has quite a bit of wildness to the sound, which can be just the thing for your art. But it isn't a clean octave, and has an atonal quality to it, as all Octavia or Octavio type effect have. Spend some time with it and it can be very creative.

Octafuzz

Got about five fulltone pedals on my board now so I'm definitely already a fan of these magic little boxes. I always like a couple flavors of overdrive to choose from at anytime and although I don't use fuzz often, same thing there. Nice to have a silicone and geranium on hand. Already have a fuzzface (jh-1 I believe it is) and the Octafuzz is quite different sounding. Even though I'm not getting much use out of the octave switch now, I'm determined and even on just fuzz there seems to be a hint of octave already. I might prefer my fuzzface slightly, but the octafuzz has definitely found it's way into a handful of tracks.

Great pedal

I was searching for a Fuzz pedal for a while and came across the Octafuzz.... I have to say, I really love this pedal... as a straight Fuzz its really awesome, I can get the old Hendrix sound and feel it. add the octive and produce some cool growling notes...

Fuzz on!

This is one very nice pedal; it can do all I want it to do. I've noticed it prefers to be closer to the front of my pedal chain; further down the chain it seems to saturate and overpower all my other effects pedals, so bear that in mind. Sounds corny, but one of my favorite features about this pedal is that is made in the USA. When combined with something like an Effectrode Tube-Vibe pedal and some delay/echo, you'll be quite close to that Hendrix / Trower sound. Nice.
