Electro Harmonix Percolator Harmonic Saturator
Product information "Electro Harmonix Percolator Harmonic Saturator"
The Harmonic Percolator pedal is a homage to one of the rarest and most mysterious overdrive/fuzz pedals of all time — the Harmonic Percolator. Only a handful of these pedals were built in the 1970s and it has since achieved cult status — a strange fuzz box with a unique sound. Electro Harmonix have recreated the legendary circuit and given it some modern tweaks. On the PCB there is a trim pot that lets you adjust sub-octaves and add more gain. The pedal's sound palette ranges from rich overdrive through sub-octave fuzz to crunchy "dying battery" tones.
