--> 1. FZ-Bulb : OUT NOW
Audiobulb has teamed up with experimental noise specialist ruin in production of a custom made distortion box. The FZ-Bulb brings a warm fuzzy glow to your sound ideal for warming up ambient textures or adding grit to industrial landscapes, beatbox or guitar.

The Audiobulb FZ-Bulb is a Analog Fuzz and Bandpass Filter Combo inside a small (2 3/4"x3 1/4") metal enclosure. The FZ-Bulb was a cooperation between RuinElectronics and the Audiobulb Label, to be sold on the audiobulb site. The unit has two knobs (gain and bandpass frequency.), 1/4" ins and outs and a true bypass on/off (bypass) toggle switch. It runs off of a single 9v battery. The unit follows the typical ruin aesthetic of "looks like it was found in a World War 2 bunker".

The FZ-Bulb retails at £49 + p&p. Contact audiobulb at sales AT NOSPAM audiobulb.com to order your unit.

The res is a little silly on these clips, it gets pretty shrill higher up. right now im not remembering if its still like this or nto actualy. ill have to get david to confirm. i know i changed a bunch of stuff around after i did these clips. so if not you get a little quirk at the top range of the bandpass!

but hopefuly david can confirm otherwise. my mind is so hazy right now, and i dont have another one in my workshop. all were sent to him.

no dc input? is it a clone/replica? schematics?
Recent blogs: The Future Sound Experience?  

no DC input, but maybe if we make another round we will get a DC input on there.

its not a clone, but the bandpass was inspired by forrest mims.

I'm really wanting the FZ-Bulb, but I don't know if I have $100 dollars to spend on it.

This looks cool.

Does it ship from Canada? If answer is generally no, can I get one shipped from Canada (purchased still in GBP, it's just Canada Customs has been a bit on the slow side lately, to the point of driving me nuts, and since Psyingo only lives a few hours away, I was hoping...), or were they already all sent over to England?
