Here is what Sweetwater says about this great pedal:
All-original Fuzz Circuit with Impressive Sonic Versatility
"Instead of re-creating an existing fuzz circuit, the Matthews Effects Whaler v2 fuzz pedal is an all-original fuzz design that sounds absolutely monstrous. Now in its second generation, the Whaler v2 adds another gain stage, which drastically increases its sonic range. Whether you’re after subtle breakup or full-on mayhem, you’ll find it here. Guitarists at Sweetwater especially appreciate the Squish control, which gives you easy access to how smooth or ragged the fuzz sounds. If you still haven’t found your ideal fuzz tone, you definitely need to check out the Matthews Effects Whaler v2 fuzz pedal.
"The Whaler’s Body control is basically a midrange boost/cut control. Dial it back for scooped-mids tones, or crank it up for a girthy midrange boost. Combined with the Tone control, you’ll discover a fuzz tone for practically any musical style in the Whaler v2 fuzz pedal."
Thanks for looking, and happy bidding!
