Introduction

This classic sounding fuzz offers
smooth, rich sustain with great note
definition. A tighter low end makes it
ideal for full chords as well as sustaining
single notes.

The empress fuzz is true bypass and has
gain control, two bands of EQ and
output control to fully tailor your
sound.
