Strymon Canoga Series A Analog Fuzz Guitar Pedal, Vintage Style Silicon, Simple Drive and Level Controls for Pedalboard, Keyboard, and Synth

Canoga is a simple pedal to use—one knob for Drive, one for output Level—but the magic happens in the interaction between your guitar and the pedal's input, and between the pedal and your amp. As with many classic fuzz pedals, Canoga works brilliantly when plugged into an amp that already has a bit of "hair" on the tone, much like guitar greats of the 60s and 70s that ran their rigs. Traditional unbuffered fuzz pedals like to be connected directly to your guitar, allowing the circuitry to "see" your pickups and volume pot. Canoga honors this tradition. With both pedal pots and your guitar volume full up, you get the complete, saturated fuzz experience. But roll back the volume on your guitar, and a new world opens up—semi-clean blues, rock, Americana, and pop sounds that stay clear in the high frequencies without getting muddy. The Canoga guitar effects pedal joins Fairfax as the second pedal in Strymon's 'Series A' line—a collection of pure analog pedals designed to offer something different from traditional Strymon offerings. There's no MIDI, no USB, no firmware, no digital processing. Just 100% analog circuitry, true bypass switching, and a tweaked version of a vintage silicon FuzzFace style fuzz circuit. The wide range of gain makes it suitable for multiple styles of music, from classic rock and blues to alternative and beyond. An internal jumper lets you set the initial power-up state, either bypassed or engaged. Power requirements are simple: 9VDC center negative with a minimum of 50mA (power supply sold separately). Dimensions are a pedalboard-friendly 4.53" deep x 2.83" wide x 2.33" tall.
