Tortuga Effects: Wendigo Silicon Fuzz

The Wendigo™ is the close brother to the Tortuga Sasquatch™ but with the addition of silicon transistors, this monster takes on a whole new form. The Wendigo has a tight, rich distortion that blends extremely well with an amp yet still has all the characteristics of an over-the-top classic 70s fuzz. Like the Sasquatch, the Wendigo also has a the Make Him Mad freak-out mode that can be controlled and mastered with your guitar volume and tone knobs. The Wendigo has been optimized to work perfectly with guitar or bass.

ive been looking at the wendigo and the werewolf but i cant decide....im going for a pop punk sound like blink182 but i also want a hard metal sound like slipknot. not sure which would give me both. help me out?

@PinHead353

For the crunchy, Blink 182 power punk style rhythm and Slipknot style saturation for low tunings the Werewolf is the way to go. It's more versatile when it comes to overdrive to crunch to high gain. The Wendigo will do those sounds too but I think you'll dig the Werewolf more. Unless you really want the freak out scream of the Make Him Mad settings on the Wendigo... nothing does that like the Wendigo.

This is amazing. I'd say your tone is very close to perfect, this is something I'm searching for. Congratulations.
