SCRAM - Octave / Ring Mod
PRICE: $175
It's a Fuzz! It's an Octave! It's a Ring Modulator! It's all that and a bag 'o chips (crisps for my friends across the pond!)
Here is my wild, bulletproof version of the original inimitable Ampeg Scrambler for your enjoyment.
CONTROLS AND FEATURES
TEXTURE - So many fantastic colors..........flavors and hues to trip the mind!
BALANCE - So cool - blend from "zero" to infinity of the effected tones with the dry signal - amazingly effective. In addition, this knob acts as your power switch. This way, you can keep all your pedals plugged in on your board and simply turn the knob all the way counter-clockwise to power off... or keep it “on” and unplug the input jack (that is also switched)...it’s all up to you.
The circuit is only “live” when the Balance control is turned above 0... If the Balance is clicked "off", the effected output will be zero (no sound). Turn the knob clockwise (click) and light some incense. . . .
TRUE BYPASS - When the effect is “out” of the loop your signal passes from input jack to output jack unscathed.
LED Indicator - as one would expect, not that you would need a reminder that the green weenie is on
DC Power Jack - All products also include an DC Adapter socket, for ease of pedal board use. Now, my personal opinion is "use a Carbon/Zinc battery...quiet and pure". That said, many prefer the convenience of a pedal board supply. This is a NEGATIVE PIN jack (like Boss and others). Please use a dedicated AC adapter (or a unit with isolated and filtered outputs) to insure noiseless operation.

CUSTOMERS SAY ...
"Joe!!! This thing is f@*^n' great!!! and it LOVES working with other ODs placed after it! DOES do a really cool cleanish ring mod if placed there. I REALLY like it!"
"The Scram is a killer fine fuzz tone, with all the same responsiveness and feel of the original. I know -- I A-B'ed the new one against my old one (Original Ampeg SC-1) last night and today... and I can't tell them apart, except that the Ampeg SC-1 is a little noisier"
"Now I can't imagine my solos w/o your Scram. With Scram I can make my guitar speak and cry and much more. Even my wife noticed that my playing techniques has improved a lot...since tone of my solos has been changed".
