Discover the Charon, a groundbreaking germanium/silicon hybrid fuzz pedal that delivers raw, intense, and versatile tones. Designed for simplicity and sonic excellence, the Charon is perfect for guitarists seeking a dynamic and responsive fuzz experience.

Unleash Your Sound
The Charon’s intuitive control layout makes it easy to dial in a wide range of tones. From smoky, crunchy lows to shimmering, high-gain fuzz, this pedal offers unparalleled versatility.

• GAIN Control: Adjusts the signal level into the circuit. At lower settings, enjoy a smoky, crunchy tone with clear note definition. Medium settings introduce lush compression and harmonic bloom, while maximum gain delivers a bold, aggressive fuzz with heavy intermodulation.
• TONE Control: Reduces bass content as you turn it up, ensuring tight and articulate tones even at high gain. Perfect for crafting everything from crisp, clear sounds to massive walls of distortion.
• LEVEL Control: Manages output volume with plenty of cut and boost options, making it ideal for any playing situation.

Optimized Performance
With a moderately low input impedance of 100K ohms, the Charon performs best when placed first in your signal chain. This placement ensures a dynamic, touch-sensitive response that seamlessly couples with your guitar.
