Charon v2 Mod: Ge+Si Fuzz
An updated take on Spaceman's germanium/silicon hybrid fuzz, reworked to lean harder into the germanium side for more texture and dynamic response.
About this pedal
The Charon v2 Mod reworks the original Charon circuit, shifting the balance of its germanium/silicon transistor blend to favor the germanium side for a more textured, dynamically responsive fuzz. Spaceman also revised the Lows control for more pronounced low-frequency shaping and gave the pedal a new faceplate design.
