Steel Stingray
€9.90
Project overview:
The hype that surrounds Alexander Dumble’s creations has led to an entire cottage industry of builders trying to replicate that sound on a pedal board friendly approach. Vertex Effects’ take on a Dumble Steel String Singer is billed as a “clean drive,” but you will be quite surprised with how much gain the SS could churn out. In front of a clean amp, the pedal got very growly and, at times, heavy on the low end.
Our Steel Stingray makes possible to achieve all that Dumble tone, in an affordable super easy to build pedal, ideal for beginners in the pedal building, but also solder masters will be delighted by play with this machine.

Ever wanted to dance slowly in a burning room?
Hold on, no one wants you to set your house on fire! But here comes our take on the world famous Vertex Steel String ™ a pedal that reproduces that insane creamy Steel string singer Overdrive tone from a Dumble ™ tube amp that costs more then a (not burning) House nowadays.
Honestly was blown away when I switched this thing on for the first time. A Simple and beginner friendly circuit, with low amount of parts and only three knobs for Volume, Gain and Tone that give you so much tone should be something you try out. Works pretty well when stacked with other low gain drives as well.

Project overview: Clearly a Fuzz Face inspired circuit, but with two interesting features that totally changes the nature of this pedal, a knob for Bias control that regulates how much voltage is fed into the second transitor, and a big muff tone stack just before the output that allows you to shape the tone at taste.
