1979
Fuzz / Filter
Listing Description
The Mojo Hand Fx 1979 is a high-gain fuzz effects pedal modeled after the late-’70s op-amp Big Muff circuit. Designed for pronounced, aggressive distortion, this pedal uses integrated circuits for its gain stage instead of the traditional transistor configuration. The 1979 includes a footswitchable tone bypass that routes the signal directly, adding extended bass, treble, mids, and increased volume. An independent volume knob for the tone bypass mode allows level matching or boost. The gain control features a refined taper, enabling greater adjustability across its range.
**Key features:**
- High-gain fuzz stompbox based on a late-’70s op-amp Big Muff circuit
- Footswitchable tone bypass for enhanced frequency range and output
- Dedicated volume control in tone bypass mode
- IC-based gain stage for raw, aggressive fuzz character
- True bypass switching
- Optimized gain control taper for accessible adjustment and usability
