You have been transported back in time. Or into the future. Or another dimension. Youʼre in a land where you make the rules and answer to no one. Welcome to the world of fuzz. Made in the USA — Amber Waves of GAIN!

We named our fuzz Olympia™ in honor of its “hammer of the gods” ’60s roots, the Pacific Northwest locales where this sound came back with a vengeance in the ’90s, and the Columbia neighborhood that is now a home to our emerging musical and artistic scene.

To the best of our knowledge, Olympia™  is the first guitar effect pedal to be funded by Kickstarter.com, a fundraising website for creative endeavors. Thanks to the superb support of  our campaign by our community of players and friends.

Inspired by our favorite timeless and classic transistor-based fuzzes, we tweaked every component we could to squeeze as much performance as we could out of the designs, listened to what our testers and players told us, then forgot about the math and went for the red line. As Lemmy from Motorhead once sang: “You thought you knew the answers/but you only knew the rules.”

Controls:

• The “bolt of Zeus” controls the amount of authority you have over mortal man. Think of it as a one-stop-shop for gain and texture. Remember with great power comes...respect
• The “speaker” is how bold you want your public appearance to be. Turn it left to be understated and ride in on a donkey, and turn it right to...well, “HEREʼS JOHNNY!”
