NICK GREER FUZZY WOOLY BEAR SILICON.
SILICON UNIT. The Fuzzy Wooly Bear is available as a PNP Silicon overdrive unit or
PNP Germanium overdrive unit. The Silicon version of this unit has two
knobs on top, one gain and one volume. All silicon FWBs sound mostly
identical. These pedals have a beautifully textured gain structure that
allows wonderful light grit to raging distortion. The Germanium version
of this unit features two knobs on top also, one for bias and the other
for volume. The bias knob does just that, adjusts the bias voltage of
the germanium transistor. This allows the user to get a range of sounds
and is most noticable on the decay of the note. If the bias is set too
low or too high the decay will sound drastically different, from a
ratty, ragged decay with sharp cutoff to that of a beautiful standard
note decay this pedal can do it (if set to full max or to zero, no note
will be produced, as the transistor will not be able to operate). The
volume knob, as usual controls pedal output. The Silicon version is
more aggressive in comparison with the Germanium with the Germanium
having a slightly fatter sound than that of the Silicon.
