More Gain Music is proud to be an early dealer for Rare Buzz Pedals.
THE SNITCH IS A RAT-INSPIRED, HIGH GAIN DISTORTION THAT WILL SATISFY EVERYONE FROM 90S KIDS TO METALHEADS. HAND ASSEMBLED USING CARBON FILM RESISTORS, WIMA AND NICHICON CAPACITORS, AND A LO-FI TEXAS INSTRUMENTS OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER FOR GAIN, THE SNITCH HAS THE VINTAGE GRIT YOU’D EXPECT. THE DIODES SWITCH ALLOWS YOU TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THREE DISTINCT VOICINGS – SILICON FOR THE TRADITIONAL SOUND, LEDS FOR TURBOCHARGED RIFFS, AND SURPLUS SOVIET GERMANIUM FOR WHEN YOU’RE FEELING DIRTY.
CONTROLS:
