Stone Thrower
The Stone Thrower Fuzz from Summer School Electronics is a captivating tribute to the rebellious spirit of Syracuse's Tipperary Hill. In the 1920s, Irish-American youths in this neighborhood defiantly shattered the red traffic lights, a symbol of British rule, until the city relented and installed a unique green-on-top signal. The Stone Thrower channels this raw, unapologetic energy, delivering a dynamic fuzz tone that ranges from subtle grit to full-on aggression. Powered by a pair of silicon transistors, this pedal offers a versatile palette of fuzz textures. Crank the volume and fuzz controls for a ferocious, snarling distortion that cuts through the mix. Roll back the guitar's volume, and the Stone Thrower transforms into a more sensitive, touch-responsive overdrive. The pedal's organic, dynamic response rewards players who explore the interaction between their instrument and this unique circuit. For optimal performance, Summer School recommends placing the Stone Thrower first in your signal chain, without a buffer in front of it. This allows the pedal to work in harmony with your guitar's natural characteristics, unleashing its full expressive potential. Handcrafted in Syracuse by working musicians, the Stone Thrower Fuzz is a must-have for any player seeking a distinctive, historically-inspired tone that captures the spirit of rebellion.
