The Facet VX fuzz is a specialized variant designed to replicate the iconic sound of the Vox Tonebender, originally crafted in Italy at the Jen Electronica factory. Revered for its distinctive biting tone, the Vox Tonebender has become a classic in the world of fuzz pedals.
Reeves, in creating the Facet VX, sought to capture the essence of the Vox Tonebender while enhancing its functionality. The addition of the Trim control ensures compatibility with high-output pickups and allows users to fine-tune the pedal's response, making it adaptable to different setups and accommodating the use of Wah pedals.
By carefully tuning the Facet VX to mirror the characteristics of the Vox Tonebender, Reeves has created a fuzz pedal that not only pays homage to a legendary sound but also addresses practical concerns in modern guitar setups. Whether you're chasing that distinctive biting tone or require a fuzz pedal that seamlessly integrates with different equipment, the Facet VX stands as a testament to Reeves' commitment to sonic excellence and practical versatility.
