Crunchy distortion goodness with outstanding tweakability.

The Fat Sandwich Distortion represents an advanced era in guitar pedal design for Way Huge. In addition to carrying on the Way Huge tradition of amazing tone and rugged construction, the Fat Sandwich Distortion Pedal delivers heaps of crunchy distortion goodness via its innovative multi-stage clipping circuit. Meticulously designed from the ground up, the passive tone stack was tuned to bring out the "sweet spot" with any guitar and amp combination. The Volume control produces tons of output, making it ideal for driving the headroom out of the most powerful tube amps. Additionally, the Fat Sandwich guitar effect pedal has two internal mini controls: the Curve knob lets the user fine-tune the corner frequency of the overdrive filtering and the Sustain control adjusts the gain of the final distortion stage. The Fat Sandwich is versatile and over the top — the consummate distortion pedal for any genre of playing style.

Each pedal has been rigorously tested to ensure quality, durability, and reliability and will deliver many years of exceptional performance. All Way Huge guitar pedals feature: heavy-duty footswitch with quiet relay-based true bypass, blue LED indicator, 2.1mm power jack with AC protection, easy access (non-detachable) battery door, super-duty .09 aluminum anodized chassis, high grade components, great tone and cool name.

Launched in 1992 by Jeorge Tripps, Way Huge Electronics began as a result of Tripps' search for great tone, and his desire to perform with reliable, rugged and pedalboard-friendly effects that had the magic of his coveted vintage pedals. The very first pedal — simply labeled "Fuzz Box" — was quickly followed by such staples to the product line as the Red Llama Overdrive, Foot Pig Fuzz and Green Rhino Overdrive II, which quickly found their way into the hands and onto the pedalboards of the world's guitar elite. Ensuing years would see the introduction of pedals such as the Swollen Pickle Jumbo Fuzz, Aqua-Puss Analog Delay, and the Saffron Squeeze. Over the span of a few years, Tripps helped revolutionize what would later be known as the 'boutique' effects market. In late December 1999, the company closed its doors as Tripps pursued other opportunities, sending demand for Way Huge products soaring, and driving online auctions well into the hundreds — sometimes thousands — for used Way Huge pedals. Now teaming up up with Dunlop, Way Huge pedals will once again be available to the masses, so all can enjoy their finely tuned electronics, high-grade circuitry and road ready construction, built under the watchful eye of Mr. Huge himself.

Thanks to Way HUge, I can't put my guitar down

Comments about Way Huge Electronics WHE301 Fat Sandwich Harmonic Saturator Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal:

This is the most organic sounding versatile distortion a player can have. It'll do overthing from slightly dirty blues, to full tilt John McLaughlin like saturation. It's voicing is not very well suited for modern metal, but you can buy 100 different pieces of junk that'll give you that sound for under $50 ... if you're willing to spend a little more on a distortion pedal, you probably don't plan to use it to chunk out palm muted Slayer riffs anyway. Now, this isn't nessesariily a plug in & play type pedal, it really takes some work to get your sound, but it is well worth the effort. I spent the 1st week tweeking, & tweeking (8 adjustment knobs - 5 on the top, 3 on the inside), but this thing really gets the job done, I play alot of bluesy type rock music and I like to clean my sound up with the volume knob,& this really retains the dynamics of your sound. When it is on full tilt, the chords ring out nicely & do not at all muddy up. I also push it with a Boss Super Overdrive when I really want to saturate my tone, and it still sounds crystal clear, never muddy. It works well with other pedals (chorus, wah, phaser & delay) - you really get what you pay for and much much more. Oh, 1 thing I didn't mention is how loud this thing is ... I run it @ 9 o'colck & it really kicks, no need to open it ip - it is a loud mutha. If you love those saturated 70's saturated guitar tones & dirty blusey licks and are not afraid to put some effort into getting your tone, then this is really worth every penny ... just make sure you write down your settings somewhere, so when your gutar playing buddy starts turning dials, you don't spend another 2 days tweeking again.
