Groovy Wizard’s  open and transparent response lets the character of your guitar and amp shine through while  accentuating every playing nuance. The wide ranging controls go from boost to amp-like touch sensitive overdrive all the way to raging fuzz! And it was specifically designed to extend the range of  your guitar's volume control - from amazing cleans, to tight overdrive, all the way to raging fuzz - all by  merely turning your guitar's volume control and varying your picking attack. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAdapted and extended from a classic ’60’s two-transistor console preamp circuit originally associated  with Jimi Hendrix, the Groovy Wizard is not a mere clone, nor is it a fuzz face. The circuit was modified  and voiced from the ground up to achieve the perfect sound + response. Utilizing a combination of a  PNP germanium transistor coupled with an NPN silicon transistor running at up to 18 volts, the Groovy  Wizard has a greatly increased range of gain from clean to fuzz, more tonal control, bigger soundstage  and punch, and more transparency to create the perfect fuzz driver for any musical style or rig. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis is your always on dirt pedal! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePower Requirements \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Groovy Wizard is powered by either two 9-volt batteries or a standard DC power supply at 9-18  volts. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eYou can tune the response of your pedal by trying different voltage levels to the DC jack. 18-volts give  you a loud punchy response. 9-volts will remind you of classic fuzz textures. Try running a voltage  somewhere in-between, such as 12-volts, for a perfect balance of punch and saturation. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eGrab those used 9-volt batteries that you have in the junk drawer that are drained down to 6 or 7 volts,  and give them a new lease on life. Two batteries at 7-volts gives you 14-volts of warm tone with a  satisfying pick attack. And the Groovy Wizard’s ultra-low current draw means you can keep running  those used batteries for many many hours. There are also subtle differences between different types of  9-volt batteries: alkaline, carbon-zinc, or lithium-ion. Experiment with these to really fine tune the  response of your Groovy Wizard. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIncluded with the Groovy Wizard are two custom kcFX Ultramega Super Heavy Duty batteries to get  you going! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTo change the batteries, simply unscrew the four rubber feet with your fingers to remove the bottom. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eUnplug the your cable from the input jack when not playing to turn the battery off—or keep the DC  jack plugged in and this will also turn the battery off. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specs \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Input impedance. ~380k Ohms \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Output Impedance. 18k Ohms \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e BypassTrue bypass, grounded input \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Current draw .5ma @ 18volts\u003c\/span\u003e  .25ma @ 9volts \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePower supply 9-18volts DC (standard center-ground 5.5mm x 2.1mm barrel), or two 9-volt  batteries.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"kittycasterFX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42642037965043,"sku":"20KFX000","price":229.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/99E41D36-1A26-4CC2-835A-21A0020E7CC3.jpg?v=1685558300","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/kittycaster-fx-kc-101-groovy-wizard-fuzz-driver-guitar-effect-pedal","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
