Adding to his line of vintage fuzzboxes, Ananashead has announced the MARK2 Hybrid, a silicon and germanium transistor benderish fuzz.
Barcelona, Spain – August 1, 2024 – The MARK2 is an hybrid silicon/germanium handmade pedal based on the second generation of 3-transistor boxes from the mid sixties like the used by Page with The Yardbirds and early Zeppelin. With a great amount of saturated gain, this one is equipped with an external bias to be able to dial the different bender tones we heard on records bringing the chance to remove hiss, add sustain, get better cleans with volume roll off or get sputtery and gated tones. Also it has a switch to change the last cap to bring back some lows.

- Selected NOS transistors

- Shielded inputs/outputs to avoid RF

- Daisy-chain friendly
- Popless True Bypass switching
- Current draw: 4.5mA
The MARK2 pedal is hand-made in Barcelona with careful selected components and has a price of 110.00€. The pedals are available and can be purchased directly from the Ananashead online store at https://www.ananashead.com
