"After a year of development, testing every transistor obtainable and painstakingly listening to every component available for this pedal… the Third Stone was born. The key to the tone of the pedal is the natural mid-range, control over the bass, and the incredible feel. The mid-range will cut through better in a live performance. Inspired by the Fuzz tones of the 1960’s the Third Stone was designed to be the most organic and versatile fuzz made.
