Flatiron Fuzz Pedal

The new Flatiron Fuzz is a classic op-amp powered fuzz/distortion. With its late ‘70s style circuit and symmetrical hard clipping, it’s EHX’s take on the RAT2™ pedal, only we think it’s better. The RAT2 is a trademark of Act Audio.

The Flatiron Fuzz, an extremely versatile, classic op-amp powered pedal that can take you all the way from warm, round overdrive to full-on, fuzzy distortion. At lower drive settings the Flatiron Fuzz will remain fairly clean adding a pleasant mild drive. At medium and higher drive settings the Flatiron Fuzz can produce a thick classic tone circa the late ‘70s and far beyond. The expressive filter lets you dial in just the right amount of high-end...from dark to raunchy. The Flatiron Fuzz features true bypass.

Electro-Harmonix trivia: the Flatiron Fuzz is named after the historic Flatiron Building in New York City. It’s an iconic landmark located just down the block from EHX headquarters in the 1970s and it’s the building pictured on your pedal.

Key Features:

• DRIVE Knob — Controls the amount of input gain that goes into the fuzzcircuit. Turn the DRIVE clockwise to go from clean to high gain.
• FILTER Knob — Sets a low pass filter that tames the natural highs that are accentuated by the fuzz circuit. As the FILTER knob is turned clockwise, the filter’s frequency increases allowing more high-end to pass through the pedal.
• VOL Knob — Adjusts the output volume of the Flatiron Fuzz.
• FOOTSWITCH and LED — The footswitch toggles the Flatiron Fuzz between effect and true bypass mode. The LED lights when the effect is engaged.
• INPUT Jack — This 1/4” jack is the input to the Flatiron Fuzz. Plug your guitar into here. The input impedance is 1MOhm.
• AMP Jack — This 1/4” jack is the Flatiron Fuzz’s output. Connect this to the input of your next effect or amplifier. Output impedance varies from 500 Ohms to 25KOhms depending on the VOL Knob setting.
• POWER The Flatiron Fuzz can run off of a 9V battery or you can use an optional 9VDC AC Adapter capable of delivering at least 25mA to the 9V power jack, such as the EHX9.6DC-200. The AC Adapter must have a center negative plug. The battery may be left in or taken out when using an AC Adapter. The Flatiron Fuzz has a current draw of 5mA at 9VDC.
