Those who among you are in love with the word “gnarly” may have found a new best friend – or maybe a new “lover”?? – in the Vaderin Pedals Vaporizer Fuzz. We would be seriously remiss if we didn’t warn you, though, that the creator himself warns that this octave-up fuzz suffers from a concerning case of schizophrenia, which rarely bodes well in a love story… unless, of course, for those looking for a wild (sonic) ride!
This octave fuzz pedal has multiple personalities; ring-mod octave-up, Super Fuzz-esque eggs-in-a-frying pan octave sizzle, straight ahead gated octave fuzz tones and everything in between.
Check out the range of bad behaviors this baby can display in the following video by collector//emitter.

This pedal is in the Ampeg Scrambler/Green Ringer/Fender Blender/Ace Tone FM-2 family of octave-up fuzz peals, producing its octave-up effect via diode signal rectification. However, it is not a modified version of the aforementioned pedals.DIAL-IN A WIDE RANGE OF TONES:
The Vaporizer’s unique controls allow the player to dial-in a prominent octave-up and combine that with a velcro fuzz, resulting in a wide range of tones.
