ZVex Mastotron Fuzz

www.ProGuitarShop.com - ZVex Vextron Mastotron fuzz
One of two new budget minded pedals unveiled during the 2009 NAMM show, the new ZVex Vextron Mastotron is here and the fuzz world may never be the same. Equally capable of providing fuzzy goodness for guitar, bass, keyboards or even digital recorders, this bad boy can be enjoyed by the whole family. The new ZVex Vextron Distortion features simpler graphics than you have come to expect, but the sounds are pure fuzz heaven.

The ZVex Vextron Mastotron fuzz is based on a heavy silicon fuzz design using a 2N2222 transistor ala Jimi Hendrix. Zachary Vex says it has a bumble bee quality that stays solid for all settings. Knobs on the fuzzy little fellow are Volume, Tone, Pulse Width, Fuzz and Relax/Push. The Pulse Width knob allows you to change the wave form from square wave to narrow pulse waves and everything in between. The Relax/Push knob adds source impedance to the signal that enters the pedal. This allows the ZVex Vextron Mastotron to soften the input being sent by active pickups to maximize the fuzz effect and to adjust how the pedal reacts to how you play. There is also a Subs Switch that lets you dictate how much sub content is added to the signal. If you have been searching for a fuzz that allows the complete control over wave shape, sustain, attack, decay and texture of the fuzz, the ZVex Vextron Mastotron might be the ticket.

ZVex Vextron Distortion features: * Painted Box * Single layer silk-screened graphics * Black 3pdt switch * Knobs: Volume, Tone, Pulse Width, Fuzz and Relax/Push * Switch: Subs * Powered by 9volt battery or 9v DC negative tip (Boss Type) power adapter

black keys are awesome :)

[justinsong514]

yea i think it's more useful than Fuzz Factory in tonal way i don't like the crazy oscillation so :)

@letsgetcarriedaway Thanks for the congratulations. Well, I don't mean ''if you have a shitty amp this pedal will sound like crap'', but i have to say a few thing about this pedal.I own a mastotron and i plug it into a medium range tube-amp and also into a GREAT amp.In the first it sounds terrible,the second sounds better but definitely NOT as good as this video. So, in my opinion this pedal force you changing everything to make it sounds GOOD.

i thought the fuzz factory was great! but the oscillation was ridiculous, at least for me. the mastrotron seems like its more my kind of fuzz, more controlled i guess. :{)

[charlessale]

Having used both the Mastotron and the Fuzz Factory, I couldn't recommend one over the other - the Mastotron is more synth-like or something - a bit more futuristic or something. The Fuzz Factory is more 'vintagey' but with wildly insane facets that I can't explain.

@MrLaughingarcher What the hell are you trying to say dude? That doesn't make sense...

[superreverbfreak]

@fantomius7 its not the pedal its cuz your amp sux....its not a line 6 is it??

[MrLaughingarcher]

@brazen fuzz factory = germanium fuzz + oscillations mastortron = silicon + wave for shaper

[BrazenHarbinger]

what is the real difference between this and the fuzz factory? im torn between the two

[freeheelfreestyler]

The Fuzz Factory has been burned to the ground.
