The main concept of the TrebleTool Junior© is based on the Dallas Rangemaster, a germanium transistor based treble booster developed around 1965 in London, UK by a company called John E. Dallas & Sons Limited. The Rangemaster was used to drive Tube
Amplifiers into saturation because (high) gain Tube Amplifiers were not available during the 60‘ties. Famous guitar players who created their unique sound with a treblebooster are: Rory Gallagher, Eric Clapton, Ritchie Blackmore, David Gilmour, Bryan May and Tony Iommi.

Technology concept
Like the original Rangemaster, the core of the TrebleTool Junior© is a single stage transistor preamplifier based on a selected NOS germanium transistor with the correct technical specifications combined with a high pass filter. It creates a transparent dynamic
sound that will cut through the mix without being perceived as over the hill. The TrebleTool Junior© is basically a Rangemaster extended with features that increase operating flexibility and solve short comings of the original design but do not change the original Rangemaster sound character.

FEATURES

• Gain control – adjust the effect output volume
• Continuous variable range control (T.M.F.) – dial in the amount of bass with a specific guitar type or pickup combination
• Tone control – adjust the amount of treble for a specific amplifier
• The PaulSwitch Jr.® – robust true bypass footswitch to switch effect on/off & to avoid tone sucking in bypass operation
• External power supply – (noise reduced) providing the optionto use an external power supply without inducing noise or changing the character of the sound.
• Reverse and over voltage protection – to protect the sensitive germanium transistor and keeping the pedal running for many years to come
• Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) suppression – avoiding radio signal reception when using high gain setting in combination with turning down guitar volume

The Fuzz Face is the most famous type of fuzz pedal and has become a legend because of it’s dynamic character. It is developed in 1966 by a company called Dallas Arbiter. The Fuzz Face is known in two configurations (1) the pre 1969 version executed with germanium transistors and (2) the post 1969 silicon transistors based version. They both have a different distinct character; germanium is soft and bluesy, silicon has more gain and sounds more harsh, thus more rock character. Famous guitar players who create(d) their unique sound with a Fuzz Face are: Jimmy Hendrix, Steve Ray Vaughan and Billy Gibbons.

Technology concept
Like the original Fuzz Face, the core of the FuzzTool Junior© is a dual transistor voltage feedback amplifier. The voltage feedback principle is intended to get more gain from a lower gain transistor, in the Fuzz Face it creates the typical touch sensitive character and dynamic response on the use of the guitar volume knob, the so called “clean up” effect. The FuzzTool Junior© is basically a Fuzz Face extended with features that increase operating flexibility and solve shortcomings of the original design but do not change the original Fuzz Face sound character.

FEATURES

• Hybrid transistor setup – a NOS low gain silicon transistor combined with a medium gain NOS germanium transistor. This results in increased temperature stability while retaining the germanium character and clean up capability.
• Gain control – control the amount of Fuzz
• Continuous variable range control (T.M.F.) – dial in the amount of bass or highs with a specific guitar type or pickup combination
• Volume control – adjust the overall output volume of the effect
• The PaulSwitch Jr.® – robust true bypass footswitch to switch effect on/off & to avoid tone sucking in bypass operation
• External power supply – (noise reduced) providing the option to use an external power supply without inducing noise or changing the character of the sound.
• Reverse and over voltage protection – to protect the sensitive germanium transistor and keeping the pedal running for many years to come
• Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) suppression – avoiding radio signal reception when using high gain setting in combination with turning down guitar volume
