Description:

The Analog Man ASTRO TONE fuzz is somewhere between a fuzz and distortion, it acts differently into different amps. But it sounds great into almost anything! If you have always had trouble using Fuzzfaces live, this one is MUCH easier to use and you can hear it well with a band.

Analog Man's first new pedal of 2010 is the ASTRO TONE fuzz. This pedal is based on the 1960's SAM ASH FUZZZ BOXX and ASTROTONE FUZZ made in New York City in 1966-68 by the Astro Amp company. It was one of the best fuzz pedals.

The Analog Man ASTRO TONE is not quite the same as the old pedals. AnalogMan took their first prototype, made to 100% original specs, to play with his power trio. At the shop he compared it to an original and the sound was exactly the same. But he did not like it, he could not hear it well with the band, it was not thick enough. The problem with the original design was that there was very little low end, the sound was quite thin. You REALLY had to crank up the volume on it to get a good sound. But this would make the ON sound too much louder than the OFF sound for live use. And the tone knob was really limited in the useful range. So Analogman took the circuit and with some modern software analyzed it and found out how they could retain the low end, and make the tone control somewhat more useful. But they made sure that they could still get the EXACT sounds of the original pedal if that was desired. By turning the tone knob up higher, you can still get the original sounds which are good into a large, cranked amp. But they made it so that it now sounds awesome even into a little amp like a Fender Deluxe Reverb, at near unity gain on the pedal.

AnalogMan found several hundred original Astrotone transistors about ten years ago, and have been saving them. Many even have the same 1966 date codes on them as the original pedals! You can see "641" in the picture which means the 41st week of 1966. They are little plastic, flat, pill shaped Fairchild transistors. They have gold plated leads - they were made back in the days when gold was cheap and transistors were expensive! These transistors are pretty consistent, and usually well behaved, but they had to discard some that were too noisy for a fuzz pedal. AnalogMan should be able to make hundreds of these pedals with these original, excellent transistors. When they run out, they will no longer make a pedal called the ASTRO TONE.

Many people have problems using a Fuzz Face type pedal, like our Sunface, live with a band. Analogman had the same problem which is one reason they are making these pedals, it’s something they need to get the sounds they want. AnalogMan plays Fender amps with a Les Paul, which is not too favorable to fuzz face pedals. But this pedal works great with that setup.

The sound is not as compressed as a Fuzz Face, not SUPER thick and saturated, something between a fuzz and distortion. It’s fuzzier into a smaller amp (Fender Deluxe), and more of a BOOSTER into a large distorted amp (Marshall 1970s Super Lead). It can also be stacked with other pedals, for example running a fuzz face into it can get a sound like Spirit in the Sky, which buzzes and cuts out. Or run the Astro Tone into an OD pedal like a TS808 or KoT to make it fatter.

Very disappointed
Color: Enno
The toy was split into pieces in the first 5 minutes of the dog playing with it. Apparently not as durable as advertised.

Dog toys need to be sturdy - maybe you should sew them with a 5-thread machine like a serger?
Color: Elroy
My dog's full size teddy is disintegrating, so I ordered this one. It's very cute, but the seams are really weak. I've already repaired 3 seams in just a few weeks.

Great toy!

Great toy! Dog loves it and it is durable. We’ve bought other toys that he tore apart within a week, not this one! He takes it everywhere we go!
