Fulltone 69 MkII - Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the
This is the new smaller box version I call the 69 mkII ...it contains 2 of my favorite-ever Fat-Body
germanium transistors, the same exact ones I used in my favorite era of ’69 pedal…1994 through 1997.
This Germanium Transistor equipped Fuzz is identical to early Arbiter Fuzzfaces, but allows for a few key
adjustments to things like the Input level, the Mids, and even the Transistor Bias.
One of the desirable traits of Germanium Transistors (when matched properly) is their Tube-like
responsiveness and thick, even harmonics....the other being they clean up incredibly by turning down the
guitar's volume knob! Leave the Fuzz all the way up and use your guitar's knob to get everything you need.
Features:
Volume :controls the output level of the device when pedal is on.
Input controls input impedance...Full clockwise rotation gets stock
Fuzzface sounds. Lowering this knob lets the pedal work with wah wahs better
and removes the "woofiness" or bass that can sometimes muddy-up a Fuzzface-
type circuit.
Contour: This very effective knob adds Midrange clarity and overall gain when turned
clockwise, and is out of the circuit and stock Fuzzface-style at full counter-clockwise.
Fuzz: Controls amount of distortion/fuzz when rotated clockwise, usually best sounding at
full clockwise. You can clean-up the sound by turning down your guitar's volume
control!
Battery access: Simply unscrew the 4 knurled thumbscrews (on the sides of the pedal)
counter-clockwise and remove bottom-plate...no screwdriver necessary! Do not reinstall
these too tight.........hand tight will do!
