Description
The Fumble has two knobs, true bypass switching, and creates a particularly enhanced clean tone.
OUTPUT is your master volume. Turn it up for more volume.
INPUT is the one that surprises people. It is not a standard gain knob. It attenuates bass and input gain at the front of the circuit simultaneously. Fully right has no cut — consider it a bypass of the control. As you turn the knob to the left, bass and gain are gradually attenuated. Roll it down for a thinner, tighter response. Roll it up for a fuller, louder one. There is almost nothing else on the market that boosts in this way.
Use the Fumble four ways :
1. As a permanent buffer and clean boost at the front of your board. Set the output low, dial the input to taste. It tightens up everything downstream and gives you a sweetener you stop noticing because you never want to turn it off.
2. To slam the front of your overdrives. This is the secret most players miss. We default to stacking gain after gain after gain. Putting a clean JFET boost like this before a Timmy, a King of Tone, a Klon, or a Morning Glory — that's often the better second stage you've been hunting for but just didn't know it.
3. To slam the front of a dirty amp. Tweed, Plexi, anything broken up. The Fumble makes it bigger and more articulate. Roll the input back for a tighter, treble forward attack into a cranked amp.
4. As a solo boost at the end of the chain. Crank the output, set the input where it feels best, hit it for the chorus or the solo. Done.
