The Dirty Haggard Audio Arachnid is an octave fuzz pedal based on the Fender Blender. The tone circuitry has been restructured for optimal performance, with the removal of the knob and reworked input frequency-response to avoid attenuating the lows of the clean bypass. Additionally, it features a NOS germanium diode in the clipping section alongside the familiar 4148 for a harmonically rich asymmetrical distortion. The pedal offers very rich, highly usable fuzz tones at lower gain settings and out-of-control/distorted tones at higher gain settings. It is designed to be super quiet when not playing but fully raging when in use, minimizing hum and buzz.
