Astro Cat:
a redesigned 60s fuzz
Starting at €105
Astro Cat brings back the Astrotone Fuzz, also known as the Sam Ash Fuzz Box, one of the very first silicon transistor fuzz pedal, released in New York in the late 1960s.
At a time when germanium was the norm, the Astrotone stood out for its greater stability and tighter, more focused grain. Astro Cat refines this legendary circuit to deliver a more musical sound, better balanced, and usable on a modern pedalboard.
