NPD: Lab Ratchet Oscillator!
Tom knocked it out of the park with this one! Awesome gated fuzz and with some oscillation it gets quite unruly, awesome little pedal! Looks pretty damn good too...

Re: NPD: Lab Ratchet Oscillator!
WOW!!!
You're using that oscillation to awesome effect!
I think the Lab Ratchet's oscillation is a bit more challenging than other oscillating FuzzHugger pedals.
ps - I've been asked if the LRO will be added to the FuzzHugger lineup...it wont. It will only be by very special request!

Re: NPD: Lab Ratchet Oscillator!
Wow..... IT seems like quite an intimidating beast but it may be my favourite oscillating fuzz! I couldn't handle it though, for terrible players like me it's one of those beautiful beasts you can only gaze at from afar 

Good dealings with: benjuro, hatshirt(2), Eric!, insubordination, theavondon, skullservant, Ilikewater, GardenoftheDead, AndyTran, behndy, JerryTRCD, StopReferencing, philibis, jfrey, bob the robot, Noise..., space60y(x2), jskadiang, Ryan(2), Helter, mordecainyc, many moreChankgeez wrote:True, but you can also use the Klon as a tremolo. Just stomp on the switch as fast or slow as you'd like.

Re: NPD: Lab Ratchet Oscillator!
Thanks Tom! I love this thing, one of my best pedal purchases ever
I'd highly recommend checking it out, the oscillation is a lot less extreme than other fuzzes and it's super easy to dial it back. Also you can do various non-production colors for free!
Might do a tourbox of my Fuzzhuggers (this and a Phantom Ring V2 (one of maybe three made)) if you're interested?
