Christopher Venter is a clever fellow. He makes great pedals. This one pays sonic homage to the KC guys and their sound. Robert himself would probably dig the pedal. I sure do. One of the better fuzzes, for sure.

During this video you will see some 'gut shot' footage. It should be noted that this pedal, the Savior Machine Ovedrive and Pixel Synthgate Fuzz that appear in my demos are all hand-wired prototypes. While the circuit remains the same, the pedals that are now commercially available are all built using PCB construction. Please visit the Shoe Pedals links to view current builds.

More from Christopher:

"All the way to the left on the bass cut knob is full bass response. This is a good starting point. As you cut bass it will become more of a middy fuzz/drive. Basically it's a design I came up with when looking to design a nice simple fuzz and it sort of reminded me of a buzzaround/robert fripp sound on the neck pickup (might be cool to show some king crimson on it but it also seems to do well for a gilmour sort of sound). It's also an original design and oddly has almost nothing in common with a buzzaround. On the bridge pickup it's good for grungey/garagey sorts of things as well as stoner rock at times. I've also been able to get some decent sabbath tones out of it as well. It's quite a dark moldy sort of fuzz and as such is intended for use with cleaner amps that would otherwise sound rather harsh with a lot of more traditional fuzz pedals. It especially likes reverb and delay afterwards."
