HAXAN - Vintage Dist/Fuzz

Postby Jero » Tue Mar 06, 2018 10:20 pm

Haxan -
Vintage OpAmp Distortion/Fuzz

https://stompingstones.bigcartel.com/product/haxan

Started out as a custom for Chankgeez, and turned into something more.
Based on what is arguably the first release of this type of circuit, the Dan Armstrong Blue Clipper.
Check Dandolin's post on page 2 for an excellent in depth description/review :!!!:

Two modes of clipping
Three distinct voicing options (standard, bright, & dark)
Other controls for Volume and Gain.
*Utilizes a NOS metal can op-amp & other matched NOS parts* *Lifetime warranty*

I got a chance to check out Chank's boo'ful blueclipper jawn today and was right impressed--great workmanship, design aesthetic, and righteous tones that played very nicely with some other pedals where noise could be an issue. Really nice choices for the clipping and tone filters--color me interested :snax: :drool:

Yessssss! I suppose it's time for details, eh?
I'm in the middle of finishing the one pictured, and plan to get some, more than likely, garbage clips up this week :thumb:
...BUT, if you or Jason can/want to post something in the meantime, you're more than welcome to!

:D I'll have to leave any clips to Chank (maybe we'll have to think about filming future sessions :idk: ) I will repeat my distinct impression that it is a sweet sounding, flexible dirt source :thumb: :)*

Still need to grab a new SD card for my camera. :cry:

Next time we hang, Dandolin, maybe we could make a short clip on your phone. :idk:

Definitely having fun with this pedal though. :!!!: :love:

So here's little demo...
First loop layer is clean, second is lower gain w/ bright setting
I'm moving between the voicings and the two clipping options, for the "soloing." Gain @ max.
(Tele w/ flats>Haxan>Vox Pathfinder 15, recorded on my phone)

Oh hellz yeah :joy:

:love: that dark fuzz tone; almost like a clarinet on the decay, overall a very pre-ambient Eno tone on that lead, but a lot of range overall. I was sorry it ended :no: :D

(Virus sounds great too btw :snax: )
