The Pigtronix Star Eater Fuzz Pedal is an all-analog, dual-footswitch super-jumbo Fuzz pedal designed for maximum versatility and sonic inspiration. Featuring a footswitchable booster and a variable filter stage, this pedal allows you to easily shape a wide range of unique and massive fuzz tones.
Precision-Matched Transistors
On the fuzz side, the Star Eater utilizes newly-available, precision-matched transistor pairs. This ensures that every unit is expertly tuned to hit “the sweet spot,” a feature that’s notoriously difficult to find in vintage fuzz pedals.
Germanium or Silicon Voicing
With a simple rocker switch, you can choose between Germanium or Silicon coloration, giving you access to classic and modern fuzz textures at your feet.
Booster and Filter Stage
Following the fuzz circuit, a robust booster stage pushes the signal into the filter. This filter offers remarkable tone-shaping power: using the Sweep control, you can select from Scoop or Bump voicings with another rocker switch. This dramatically changes the filter’s frequency response across its range, opening up new creative possibilities.
Quality, Durability, and Power
Built with both durability and inspiration in mind, the Star Eater stands out in the world of boutique fuzz pedals by offering exceptional flexibility, reliable build quality, and a forward-thinking design. It operates on standard 9VDC power, making integration into any pedalboard setup seamless.
