Filthy octave-up grit
The Red Ringer is a filthy octave-up fuzz built around a custom circuit designed to push your guitar into harmonically rich, aggressive octave textures.
Hit the switch and the octave circuit comes alive. Keep it on LO for subtle boost, or push it hard with HI for screaming octave-up chaos.
Breadboarded, refined, designed, and assembled by hand in Canada on a custom PCB.
The Red Ringer is an octave-up fuzz designed to add harmonic lift, aggression, and unpredictable texture to your playing.
On the LO setting, it can add a little extra bite and presence without completely taking over your sound. Push it harder with the HI setting and the octave-up character gets unleashed -- delivering a classic wild, harmonic response.
Simple controls; big personality.
| Type | Octave / Distortion / Fuzz |
|---|---|
| Controls | HI / LO / Volume (internal trim pot) |
| Power | 9V DC (center negative) |
| Bypass | True Bypass |
| Build | Hand-built in Canada |
Each Red Ringer is assembled, measured, and tested by hand for consistent performance and reliability. The circuit was developed through breadboarding and refinement before being committed to a custom PCB. The result is a compact, purpose-built octave fuzz that can move from subtle harmonic lift to full-on octave-up mayhem. LO when you want a little lift. HI when you want to unleash it!
