SVAROG FUZZ MKII V3

The SVAROG MKII V3 is a hybrid germanium/silicon fuzz based on the insanely rare and expensive 1968-71 marshall supafuzz (MKII tonebender) using those sexy Mallory, Sprague and MOD caps as well as carbon film resistors that look as good as they sound.

Only available in hammered copper, hammered steel and blackened.

The SVAROG uses a combination of germanium NPN transistors (depending on availability) and 2N2222 silicon transistors which are low enough gain for the circuit. These are commonly used in modern uni-fuzz clones.

I've added the impedance correction transformer and a new JFET boosted tone stack based on my versions of the π FUZZ with an incredibly wide range tone and crucial midrange knob.

Incredibly tube amp like fuzz. Some value changes have been made to thicken it up even more and smooth the top end (including a low pass filter tone control) but this thing has elements of tonebender, uni-fuzz and π FUZZ for a genuinely unique sound that cleans up brilliantly and yet EASILY slays the stoner doom territory.

(VERY LIMITED N.O.S. SIEMENS OC141 AVAILABILITY! Once these are gone I don’t know if I’ll be able to track down these transistors again!)

UNIVERSAL CONTROL TRANSLATOR FOR ALL BLACKHAWK PEDALS/AMPLIFIERS:

🔱=gain
V=volume
T=treble
B=bass
C=clean
M=midrange
O=octave
D=depth
F=frequency

The SVAROG includes a completely transparent impedance correction transformer because all Blackhawk fuzz pedals can be placed anywhere in your guitar chain. You never have to worry about buffers or active pickups getting in the way of your tone.

All BLACKHAWK pedals and preamps are true bypass and standard “one spot style” 9v, Negative tip, 2.1mm barrel.

Please allow 1-2 weeks build time as every BLACKHAWK pedal is made by hand for YOU.
