Features
This pedal is a clone of the rare and valuable MAESTRO BASS BRASSMASTER which was used in the 70s by Yes, Eric Johnson's bass player Kyle Brock, and many other groups. It is a fuzz with an upper octave sound like an octavia, specifically voiced for Bass but working well with guitar also. One of the problems bass players have always faced when using a fuzz pedal is
the loss of low-end. The Bass Octave Fuzz allows the player to blend the clean
signal into the mix along with the fuzz. The result is a monstrous roar of fuzz
with a thunderous low-end rumble. Not for the faint of heart!

Black Cat Pedals was founded in the heart of
Texas by Fred Bonte in 1993, at the dawn of the boutique pedal era. Black Cat
users have included Eric Johnson, Billy F. Gibbons, Trey Anastasio (Phish),
Scott Henderson, Steve Lukather, Michael Landau, and countless others. Fred
Bonte discontinued production of Black Cat in late 2007.
The company has
since been restructured from the ground up to make way for a newly revamped line
of Black Cat Pedals. Using Fred’s same great designs, the next generation of
Black Cat Pedals has received a super-boutique makeover, featuring high-quality
components and PCBs, top-notch build quality with consistent production,
eye-catching graphics and deluxe packaging. Not everything has changed, however
– Black Cat Pedals are still individually hand-wired and made in the USA.
