Fulltone Standard Line Octafuzz 2 | High Octave Fuzz
Tycobrahe Octavia Style w/Mods
Sometime in the mid 1970s someone brought a funny looking white Octave-Up/Fuzz pedal into the Tycobrahe Sound Company in Hermosa Beach, CA. This broken Octavio, as it was named, reportedly had once belonged to one James Marshall Hendrix. They fixed it, and it sounded so funky that they decided to put it on the market as the Tycobrahe Octavia. Thanks to its use by Stevie Ray Vaughan and a few others, it has become the most sought after and expensive octave-up pedal for effects junkies ever made, fetching thousands if in mint condition, if you can find one. In the late 80s Michael Fuller made and sold an exact reproduction of the Tycobrahe Octavia which he named the Fulltone Octafuzz. The transformer was analysed and copied to the T, even using the exact same brand of transistors as the original, something he still does to this day. In the early 2000s he devised a mod that cut out the octave feature and made the Octafuzz double as a powerful dynamic fuzz.
Octafuzz... the only exact circuit copy of the legendary Tycobrahe Octavia. Cool Octave-Up sounds a la Hendrix "Band of Gypsies" and SRV's many live shows! Housed in a steel enclosure with a beautiful ranar-blue gloss powdercoat finish and antique-white logo, this pedal is the reincarnation of the Tycobrahe. Please note that the adaptor needed to power this pedal is centre-pin positive - not the normal centre-pin negative. Using the wrong power supply will damage equipment and could even start a fire. You can use the supplied 9-volt battery or a reversed polarity adapter. The battery life should be around 20 hours of use.
