Along with great sound, these JFET’s give the FD3 an ultra-high Input impedance which allows the pedal to mate with any type\/gain of pickup and react well to changes in your guitar’s volume control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e3-way CLIPPING toggle switch:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eset to\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e90’s\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand you’ll get symmetrical clipping with ample midrange.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSet the switch to\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWIDE ASYM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(wide asymmetrical) and more sweet highs and lows come through, along with chimey, Class-A style even harmonic overtones.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eset to\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCOMP-CUT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emode, pure opamp-overdrive, with no diode clipping assistance.
