Born in (or at least near) the ancient Athenian caves where trapped men saw shadows hinting at greater truths, the Jam Octaurus is an octave-up fuzz pedal designed for versatility and creative exploration across diverse musical genres and applications.
Its circuit emphasizes clarity with an apparent octave that remains distinct in all pickup positions, while preserving the full, rich body of notes throughout the guitar’s range.
Its signature tone is a singing fuzz that cuts through mixes, with symmetrical clipping for precision and asymmetrical clipping for a dynamic, looser response. The second toggle delivers full range or mid-scooped voicing.
Other unique features include a ring-mod effect when rolling back the guitar’s volume, without losing double stops or fundamental intervals. It delivers overdrive-like clarity for open power chords, maintaining tightness and girth with a scooped voicing.
