This one-of-a-kind Titan II features a Blue Starlight, sparkle blue powder-coated enclosure. It features a vintage Soviet-era bakelite indicator, with blue lens. Control knobs are of vintage ALCO, deluxe aluminum persuasion. The Titan II has been out of production for many years, but we found this pristine original hand-made circuit and wanted to do something special with it.
This Titan II is signed and numbered on the inside, and a hand-hammered number tag on the enclosure states it’s 1-of-1 status.
The Titan II Fuzz Machine is a unique discrete circuit using silicon transistors. Despite only having three control parameters, the Titan II packs a wide array of distinct tones within its cast aluminum shell. At full bore, you will get splatty, nasty fuzz tones; but the wide range Gain control also delivers great low gain tones that start to crossover into overdrive territory. In between these extremes, there exists fuzzy distortion tones as well.
To introduce even more tonal variety, the Titan II cleans up nicely with the volume on your instrument, adding additional levels of fuzz textures and expression. The Tone control offers a complex tonal shift, which really allows the Titan II to cover an incredible range of fuzz tone and texture. The Titan II sounds awesome with standard, bass and baritone guitars, as well as most things you plug into it.
The Titan II is completely hand-soldered and handmade in Portland Oregon to the highest degree of quality possible. It utilizes true-bypass switching, while your tone is transferred via open-frame Switchcraft jacks. Open one up and you’ll see an unparalleled display of craftsmanship; with immaculate hand-soldered PCB, detailed wiring, and custom heavy-duty battery connector.
