Bispell Audio Gleam Fuzz Guitar Effects Pedal

$239.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a Bispell Audio Gleam in mint condition and in perfect working order. Gleam is a Silicon based fuzz that can precisely recreate the sound of several vintage Germanium fuzz pedals; the Tone Bender MKI, MKII, Fuzz Face, and FZ-1. A “best of both worlds” stompbox, the Gleam offers the stability of Silicon and the tone of Germanium.

The internal 9V to 25V conversion, along with other carefully crafted elements of the circuit, allow the Silicon transistors to accurately mimic the sound of the OC81D transistor, providing exceptional distortion characteristics and dynamics. Roll back the guitar's volume a little and enjoy some truly inspiring touch-sensitive fuzz.

The Bias control provides even more sonic possibilities, turn it down for a more choppy/reedy fuzz effect, a little lower for an effective noise gate, and all the way down for 8-bit video game sounds.

The Impedance Switch provides access to the low input impedance tones of the MKII and Fuzz Face, the higher impedance of the MKI, or the lower gain of the FZ-1. The Tone Switch can replicate the high frequency roll-off cap on the input of the MKII, the warmth of the higher capacitance transistors of a Fuzz Face, or the untouched clarity of the MKI/FZ-1. These controls in combination with the passive EQ allow for an incredibly wide range of tonalities.
