Although originally released in ‘68, the Vox MKIII is most famous for its prominence in the shoegaze scene on the late 80’s and early 90’s. Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine uses it regularly.
Brandon from Circle Electric tunes his to replicate the tones from the original units. With tight and cutting attack and flowing sustain. The Glider has three usable controls for Volume, Fuzz, and tone. He sets his to go well above unity gain, a wide reaching Fuzz control, and a tone control that can go from a fat and warm woolly fuzz to ear piercingly bright and nasty and everything in between.
The Glider MKIII is a incredibly user friendly and versatile fuzz great for anyone who wants a one-stop-shoppe kinda thing. These are hand-made to order, constructed of vintage new old stock and/or salvaged capacitors intentionally selected for quality and tone, vintage new old stock and/or salvaged resistors hand selected for performance and aesthetic quality from a mix of vintage Allen-Bradley, Piher, Iskra, and others, and 3 carefully matched vintage germanium transistors.
