FA-2 Fat Burner
The Jacques FA-2 Fat Burner is a true tone chameleon, blending the essential functions of a compressor, sustainer, and headphone amp into a single compact package. At its core, this pedal is a masterful compressor, capable of smoothing out your signal and adding that coveted "glue" that professional players crave. But the Fat Burner takes this a step further, incorporating a sustain circuit that can breathe new life into your clean tones, extending notes and allowing you to coax out every nuance. But where this pedal really shines is in its versatility. Plug in your favorite distortion or overdrive, and the Fat Burner's sustain function will transform your dirty tones, fattening them up and adding an addictive, singing quality. And when you need to practice quietly, simply engage the built-in headphone amp and enjoy studio-quality tone without disturbing the neighbors. The real innovation, however, lies in the Fat Burner's ability to act as an "amp volume optimizer." This unique feature allows you to dial in your perfect tone at lower volumes, ensuring your sound remains balanced and harmonically rich, even when you need to keep the decibels down. Rumor has it that the legendary Eric Clapton has been spotted using the Fat Burner to fine-tune his tone in the studio, a testament to its quality and versatility.
