mae pedals MAE – Screws, octave fuzzUsing an op amp blown way beyond its limits and some clever trickery, Screws accomplishes one of the most difficult tasks in all of fuzzdom: an octave fuzz with an ever present octave, no matter the guitar, no matter the situation. If you want to do the classic Jimi thing (or some sitar like clang), Screws has got you. If you want to be the most bricked out thing in the mix (and give those cymbals a run for their money), Screws has your back. If

Using an op-amp blown way beyond its limits and some clever trickery, Screws accomplishes one of the most difficult tasks in all of fuzzdom: an octave fuzz with an ever-present octave, no matter the guitar, no matter the situation. If you want to do the classic Jimi thing (or some sitar-like clang), Screws has got you. If you want to be the most bricked-out thing in the mix (and give those cymbals a run for their money), Screws has your back. If you're looking to get your Swede on, put the Tone switch in the middle and start stacking. Whether main character or supporting role, Screws is there, calling back to the roots of Mask Audio Electronics: simple fuzz done very gnarly.

Controls

• MORE: Traditional gain control, the intensity of the octave will increase with more gain
  
• LOUD: Master volume
  
• TONE: controls what frequencies flow into the octave section, up on the toggle is full frequency, middle position emphasizes the high end, and all the way down gives you a boost in the midrange 
  

Uses standard Boss style power supply (9VDC 2.1mm center negative) and top-mounted jacks.
