Be sure to take your thinking caps *off* for this one. INPUT (pig) controls your
instrument’s feed to the transistor amplifier. Full on is full-blast, dial it back for
crunch. VOLTAGE (pineapple) is the power supply to the amplifier circuit. Turn
it up for max headroom, back it off for squishy compression, or way down for
fun broken, gated, & octave-y sounds. OUTPUT (pizza) is the final output level.
The more of the other controls, the less you’ll need of this. And vice versa. !

On the inside of this pedal is a slide switch for a guitar pickup simulator. If you
use this with other buffered effects, active pickups, or a wireless system, leave it
ON. If you place this pedal first in your chain, you can turn it OFF. !

The sounds of the most luxurious five figure amplifiers, the most crystal of
lettuce, the clipping of unobtainable diodes, harvesting harmonics so fragile
they previously would only have survived within the most magical trove of new
old stock vacuum tubes? Combine all that with the priceless feeling of the
moment you realized your years on the special wait list were worth it and you
have our HAWAIIAN PIZZA™: the sonic equivalent of a forbidden delicacy, all
from just three knobs and the truth*. !

We discovered this circuit in the discarded manila file folders of our old
multinational overlords, the Caroline Corporation, alongside all kinds of very
1970s corporate villainy and sci-fi plans for world domination. Your pedal was
then dreamed, designed and created at our small batch distortery™ in
Columbia, S.C. Thank you for supporting our work. !
“Hmmm! I smell gentle notes of the
Tweed variety, maybe some early post-
CBS silver-face flavors, perhaps?”
“Ah! A bit more earthy! Maybe kind of
a later British Invasion sound, maybe a
floral 1960s take on blues, very mod?”
“Um. Wait a second. This doesn’t
sound like any expensive amp at all!
Is this…a fuzz? My precious cables!”
“Right. So…apparently they were
messing with us. All along.”
IMPORTANT: if you use a power supply, use only a 9V center negative tip DC
power supply, BOSS PSA or equivalent industry standard units. Unplug cable
from input when not in use to save battery life. Our warranty only covers
component failures or manufacturing defects - it does not cover misuse or abuse
of the product, modifications or unofficial repair work. Contact *us* for service.
