Description
The Suhr Rufus Black Edition Fuzz pedal delivers a vast range of vintage and modern fuzz tones with an innovative octave-up effect. Designed for guitarists and bassists seeking to push the boundaries of fuzz, the Rufus gives you powerful distortion and a dynamic octave up that responds evenly across your instrument's tonal spectrum. Two distinct modes—Normal and Octave Up—are easily selectable via the Rufus' Multi-Function Technology, allowing you to switch between modes mid-performance with the touch of a footswitch.
Shape Your Tone with 3-Band EQ
The Rufus provides ultimate versatility with its 3-band EQ, giving you the ability to craft your ideal fuzz tone without compromising your rig's natural sound. Each band is highly responsive, allowing subtle tweaks or radical transformations. When using the Octave Up mode, the EQ is especially useful for retaining a full, balanced tone with rich low end. Whether you want vintage fuzz or a modern distortion, the Rufus delivers.
Seamless Mode Switching
The Rufus' proprietary Multi-Function Technology allows you to switch between Normal and Octave Up modes instantly by holding down the footswitch. There's no need to tap dance between modes or have your fuzz cut out when changing sounds. The Rufus remembers your last selected mode so you can default to your preferred setting every time you power on the pedal. When inspiration strikes, you'll appreciate how seamlessly the Rufus switches.
True Bypass and FX Link
To ensure transparent tone when disengaged, the Rufus features true bypass relay switching. The Rufus also includes an FX Link connector, allowing you to control the pedal's on/off switching via an external controller. The FX Link provides additional functionality like the ability to power up the Rufus in either the on or off state. When using a complex effects rig, these premium routing options are ideal.
Low Battery Monitor
The Rufus includes an intelligent low battery monitor to alert you when the 9V power supply is running low. Once the battery reaches a voltage too low for the Rufus to operate properly, the pedal will automatically switch to true bypass mode to avoid undesirable sounds. With the Rufus' advanced monitoring system, you'll never have to worry about lackluster tone or fuzz dropouts from a dying battery.
