Thank you!
We really, really appreciate that you have chosen to
put your hard earned gear dollars into one of our
pedals. It means the world to us.
So...what is this thing?
This pedal is not a clone. Like the Interfax Harmonic
Percolator, at its heart the Pigpile has a very strange
and unique configuration of two transistors (which
we've cheekily dubbed the Harmonic Porkolating
Pair, or HPP) not found in any other type of fuzz or
distortion. But the similarities pretty much end there.
We used the old Percos as a jumping off point, and
with our ears to guide us, we analyzed, explored,
experimented, made dozens of prototypes, tried
hundreds of ideas and tweaks, and then smashed
all the best circuit bits together in a tiny box until
they made friends. The end result is this flexible
maniac of a fuzz pedal, huge and weird and gnarly
when unleashed, but tweakable enough to be house-
trained. There are whole worlds of new tones in this
thing, waiting to be discovered. We hope you'll
enjoy finding them as much as we have.
Below you'll find a few of our favorite settings to get
you started!
