General

Carcosa is a fictional city created by writer Ambrose Bierce in the short story 'An Inhabitant of Carcosa' (1886). Later, Robert W. Chambers used it in his collection of short horror stories entitled 'The King in Yellow' (1895), in which he describes Carcosa as a mysterious, possibly even cursed city. The DOD Carcosa Fuzz is designed to recreate the abstract sound of this spooky town by creating a portal to an alternate fuzz universe, offering effects that are sure to surpass your wildest dreams. From a classic fuzz to complete and utter abstraction, this pedal offers you the works. To make your Carcosa experience complete, the top of this stompbox is adorned with an expressive drawing of 'The King in Yellow' himself!

The Carcosa Fuzz: The King in Yellow

The Carcosa Fuzz works well with both clean and overdriven guitar amps as well as bass guitars. It can produce masses of sound pressure, which means it's guaranteed to cut through the heaviest mixes. The sound remains well-defined and articulated - even while playing chords - and using the fitted controls, you can determine just how insane you want the fuzz effect to be. The Carcos is also true bypass, so your signal will always remain intact even if you're not using the effect. Whether you're a fuzz veteran or your fuzz journey is yet to kick off, the DOD Carcosa will take you on an unforgettable trip!

5 sterren.
1 van de meest veelzijdige fuzzes die ik heb geprobeerd.
Gaat van een raspende overdrive tot full on stonerrock, naar piepende en krakende gated fuzz, met een oorverdovend volume en een veelzijdige toonregeling.
Voor bassisten, in de Demhe-stand blijft al je laag mooi intact.
En, hij werkt goed samen met andere pedalen.

Super, gaat van klein overdrive tot heavy fuzz gewoon door je speeldynamiek
Vervangt alles wat ik ooit had (en dat was veel). En zomaar voor heel weinig geld.

Wat een geweldige Fuzz! Werkt van subtiele tot zware oversturing.
Met de Before-knop stel je de benodigde gain in.
Met de After-knop bepaal je het type fuzz geluid, dus vintage of modern. Draai je deze knop voorbij 12uur dan krijg je een geluid waarbij het lijkt of de batterij van het pedal op is.
Met de kleine schakelaar kan je bepaalde frequenties een extra boost geven, wat handig is al je wisselt tussen humbuckers of single coils.
Conclusie: een een zeer goede Fuzz die een divers fuzz geluid kan produceren. Super, zeker gezien zijn prijs.

Werkelijk een goed fuzz pedaal waar ik veel plezier van heb en regelmatig kippenvel van krijg. Ik heb meerdere fuzz pedalen maar dit ding is zo veelzijdig en regelbaar van "nette fuzz" tot helemaal over de top! Zeker gezien de prijs een aanrader.

Pedal fuzz impresionante. No es un fuzz de los que desaparecen en la mezcla en cuanto tocas con una banda. No tiene un único sonido bueno, mezclando los controles Before y After se pueden conseguir muchos buenos sonidos. Realmente merece la pena tenerlo en la pedalera.

Super lekkere sound voor bluesy of rock, rest heb ik nog niet geprobeerd, ook minder mijn stijl. Vond Fuzz eerder eigenlijk alleen maar lelijk qua sound, maar ben door deze echt verkocht. Van een normale drive of crunch kun je dezelfde sound afstellen met meer sustain en dan zijn de knoppen nog lang niet vol opengedraaid. Ik gebruik mijn Boss sd-1 en bd-2 nu meer als boosters en de fuzz meer als basis toon. Reageert ook prima op je gitaar volume knop al moet ik daar maar eens meer gebruik van gaan maken. Als je een fuzz pedaal zoekt hoef je niet verder te kijken, je zult niet snel naar een andere willen overstappen.

Excellente fuzz, le son est très sixties, mais très modulable. Les potards sont progressifs et très efficaces pour sculpté le son. De plus le switch permet de varié entre un son tranchant ou plus epais.
Tout y passe, Fuzz à la Hendrix, Jack White, Black Keys, Pumpkins etc...
Fan de fuzz n' hésitez pas, à ce prix là, ça vaut le détour

Wat een te gek pedaal! Zeer degelijk gebouwd, true bypass en veel controle over je fuzzsound. Werkt met de verschillende standen perfect op zowel cleane als overstuurde amps en geeft een grote range aan dikke fuzzsounds. Mijn gezicht ging na één keer aanslaan scheef zitten en bleef nog een aantal dagen zo.
