If you are a fan of the old school or want to add a twist to your sound you have probably looked at a muff style fuzz at some point. While there are many versions of this design very few have been able to match the original Triangle Muff from 1971. Thorpy FX however have got it down with a pedal that not only matches that original muff but offers more control and works with a much wider range of gear. This is the Fallout Cloud Fuzz and if you want some classic 70's and 80's tones this may be your new favourite pedal. 2 Band Active EQ The secret behind the versatility in this pedal comes from its 2 band active EQ circuit. This allows you to really dial in the sound you want from silky smooth fuzz that would fit great into classic rock and blues to more modern doom laden style fuzz's that are heavy enough to punch a hole through a few speakers. With separate high and low controls you really can take your tone anywhere with this. Works With Everything The biggest problem with old Muff style pedals is just how picky they are. While one day it will love your rig the next day it will just squeeze the life out of your tone for what seems like no reason. Thorpy couldn't stand the idea of an unreliable pedal so with the Fallout cloud he made it that no matter your guitar, pedals or amp you would still be able to get pro grade fuzz tones every night. Bombproof Like all of Thorpy's pedals the Fallout Cloud has been made to be able to withstand a lifetime of punishment on the road. With its top grade components, incredible build quality and custom fabricated enclosure you know this pedal can sit on your board for years to come without worry. Same Pedal New Name The Fallout Cloud is the new name for the very popular Muffroom Cloud pedal That Thorpy made a couple of years ago. While the name has changed this is still part for part an identical pedal to the original Muffroom design. Here's what Thorpy FX say about the Fallout Cloud Fuzz I was asked to create the FALLOUT CLOUD by a number of vintage pedal enthusiasts I know. They were after a MUFF style pedal that would work with a variety of guitars (Humbucker and singlecoil's including P90's) and amps and be bombproof so it could be gigged. The brief was simple, make a Muff Style Fuzz that could beat their original 1971 Triangle Muff pedals when placed head to head. The brief was simple, the task was not, however after many prototypes and a bit of lateral thinking the FALLOUT CLOUD was born. This pedal has the ability to beat any Muff you have heard (including the best vintage units). By adjusting the perfectly voiced EQ you can achieve fuzz tones from silky smooth through to doom laden whilst maintain the ability to cut through.
