Reuss The Tingler - Kid Congo Powers Signature Pedal "Free Shipping in the US"
In the words of Reuss Musical Instruments:
So, the idea of combining the two into one artist signature pedal was obvious, and when Kid Congo Power approached me with it, we went straight to work. The artwork of The Tingler comes from the hand of Kid's partner, artist Ryan Hill, who also designs the record sleeves for Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds.
The overdrive part of The Tingler is 1:1 identical to the Backslide Overdrive, and the fuzz parts is identical to Kid Congo Power's first version Goo Goo Fuzz, featuring six vintage new old stock Panasonic 2SC828 transistors. We did one mod to the fuzz in The Tingler, giving it an internal trimmer for dialing off some treble. This gives it a warmer, more vintage sounding character to the sound.
