Suited for psychedelic rock, experimental, and synth-texture applications.
The Beetronics WhoctaHell is a low-octave fuzz pedal combining bass octave synthesis and overdrive/fuzz, handmade in California. The Whocta knob sets the volume of the down-octave section while the Hell knob controls the fuzz and overdrive volume. A toggle switch selects between one octave down and two octaves down. A side-mounted Master Volume controls overall output. The resulting sound is an 8-bit synth-style lower-octave fuzz blending the two voices for sounds ranging from mild crunchy overdrive to aggressive sub-octave saturation. Custom steel enclosure with true bypass, Neutrik jacks. Reviewed by Guitar World and MusicRadar for killer old-school octave fuzz tones.
