Catalinbread Octapussy Octave / Fuzz effects pedal

General

The Catalinbread Octapussy is essentially an octave-up fuzz in the style of the Octavia, the effects pedal designed for none other than Jimi Hendrix. This pedal is no clone though! A completely new circuit with three silicone transformers and two diodes, designed by Howard Gee, takes the Octapussy to the next level. It delivers an extremely dynamic response so that you get those famous fierce lead tones higher up the neck and an amazing range of high-quality fuzz. Dynamics are the key to discovering all of the secrets this pedal has to offer. Depending on your attack and the settings on your guitar. you can take your sound almost anywhere with the Octapussy.

Octapussy: the Catalinbread experience

Just like hippies from the sixties, Catalinbread are not afraid to experiment with new things. You shouldn't be either as this is the best way to get to know the Octapussy and have a lot of fun too. Start by setting the Gain and Body controls at maximum. If the volume is too loud, use the Attenuation control to scale things back a bit. Check that the volume control on your guitar is also all the way up and try out a few licks. After this you should have an enormous smile spread across your face. Next turn the volume control on your guitar back down again to experience a pure, sweet octave-up generator. Catalinbread may be a new player in the world of fuzz pedals, but fans of this effect can kiss the sky with the Octapussy.
