Description

The Rail by Pettyjohn Electronics is a full-range fuzz machine designed with a unique approach to generating fuzz that does not rely on clipping diodes or vintage transistors. Instead, the pedal boosts the signal with extreme levels of gain into the voltage rails, hence the name "RAIL." The pedal features a streamlined control set with four knobs to adjust Level, Gain, Lows, and Highs, providing a vast range of fuzz and distortion tones.

Key Features:
- Versatile, full-range fuzz and distortion circuit with tones for everyone
- Unique 8-way rotary switch sets the gain of the circuit
- Unique INFINITY gain setting that features a musical gating effect and the highest gain fuzz
- Buffered Level control for no tone suck or loading with other pedals
- Re-designed LOWS circuit that sweeps from 30Hz to 1kHz before the GAIN stage, interacting with the fuzz
- Re-designed sweepable HIGHS control, with a wide sweep from 22kHz down to 1 kHz, shaping the harmonics content
- High headroom with internal doubling from 6v-18v power input
- Draws under 100mA
- Quiet bypass relay-based true-bypass system for quiet switching
- Handmade in Oregon, USA
- New enclosure by GORVA design
- Top-mounted jacks

The pedal operates with a dual rail doubling power supply, which can scale from +/-6v to +/-18v, affecting the headroom, tone, and feel of the pedal, achieving up to four times the headroom over standard 9v pedals. The internal supply mirrors the input voltage applied via the external power supply, allowing for experimentation and customization of the character of the distortion and fuzz as well as the output level.

The Rail is suitable for use with guitars, bass, and keys, making it a versatile addition to any musician's setup.
