“One year ago, we released the very unique Octa Psi. Today, we celebrate our 24th anniversary by modding our own pedal! The Taiga Edition features a massive overhaul of the fuzz circuit, meticulously re-engineered with 20 component changes to capture the iconic sound of the Green Russian Big Fuzz. Get the legendary, thick mids and focused lows you’ve been craving, with more dynamic range to dial in everything from saturated doom to classic overdrive. “The pitch-shifting perfection you love in the OG Octa Psi, remains untouched. I love the new Taiga and it’s the perfect reason to have two in my signal chain!” – Robert Keeley

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Fuzz — Fuzz is one of the earliest and most distinctive guitar effects, known for its thick, gritty, and saturated tone that completely transforms your sound. It works by heavily clipping the audio signal, producing a raw, almost broken distortion that defined the sound of the ’60s and ’70s rock era. Classic pedals like the Fuzz Face and Big Muff became legendary for their roaring sustain and rich harmonic texture. Modern fuzz pedals range from vintage-style warmth to wild, synth-like chaos, making them perfect for players who want to add character, attitude, and a touch of chaos to their tone..
