Thanks for purchasing The Trapper – a radical
new dual fuzz pedal. The Trapper features two
distinctly different voices that can be toggled
used the Select Footswitch. The first voice features
dedicated Fuzz and Level controls, as well as a
high-octave toggle switch. The second fuzz relies
mainly on the guitar’s volume and tone controls
for modification, with Level as the only parameter.
This circuit also employs a noise gate for some
truly distinctive “glitchy” sounds.
