This adds another octave up fuzz stage at the input, going into the FZ2 circuit. So in the FZ2 fuzz modes, you have dual octave up for just raunchy madness. This toggle switch works more like how I wanted the octave up toggle on the faceplate to work. The faceplate octave up does this really interesting swell thing and works very interesting, was worth keeping as its own effect but due to its location in the fz2 chain, it works rather non linear and unpredictable.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Twilight Audio Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Raw Aluminum V3 (built to order)","offer_id":49810922766642,"sku":"","price":279.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"worn blue marble","offer_id":49813631467826,"sku":"","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Lemon Lime Silver","offer_id":50164497285426,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"black void","offer_id":50185083224370,"sku":null,"price":259.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Red\/Pink Silver vein","offer_id":50234992296242,"sku":null,"price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"V3 mulberry explosion (prototype ish)","offer_id":51249443701042,"sku":null,"price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0908\/1906\/8210\/files\/1_63637760-efae-4c8d-83bc-747e1a807ed5.png?v=1787723099"},{"product_id":"mk3-twilightbender","title":"Twilight Bender MK3","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe smoother, more saturated tone bender version, much more in line with modern fuzz sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tonebender series are the best circuits I have had the pleasure of encountering and working with in my life (personal opinion).

If I was forced to use only one overdrive for the rest of my life, this would be the one. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI love it as a clean boost- with the gain down and the volume up, it enhances and enrichens every little dynamic and texture your guitar and amp have to offer.

It essentially is the circuit swelling into a short compression when hitting the guitar strings hard, then blooming into its full note when sustaining the note or chord, like a flower blooming into its full, final result. This feature also is controlled by the guitars volume knob- if you want very dynamic blooming, keep the guitar volume max. If you desire tighter fuzz with no blooming, simply dial it back until it disappears and you will notice a brighter sound, and no compression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MK3 just roars. It is like all the pure rock and roll energy from the 70s trapped in a box, just waiting to be released at the stomp of a switch.

It will drive you to summon your inner rockstar, visualizing and stepping into what it felt like to be a true rockstars during the peak era of rock n roll.
