Using an external power supply

You can operate your FY-2 Fuzz on an external power supply that meets the

following specifications:

• 9 volts DC, at least 50 milliamps (mA)

• 5mm x 2.1mm connector, tip "negative"

For best performance, we strongly recommend you use a well regulated and

filtered power supply. Any ripple or noise in the power will be amplified by the

FY-2 Fuzz, and come through your amplifier. Cheap power supplies from your

local electronics hobby store may not be regulated nor well filtered.

Observe the following precautions, or you may permanently damage your FY-2

Fuzz pedal:

• Do NOT use a power supply which is rated at more than 9 volts DC.

• Do NOT use a power supply which provides AC rather than DC current.

• Do NOT use a power supply with the tip connected to "positive".

You can operate your FY-2 Fuzz on an external power supply while you have

a battery installed. No power will be drawn from the battery when there is a

plug in the external power supply jack.

A note about "daisy-chained" power supplies

A "daisy-chained" power supply can be an enormously useful addition to your

pedal board, but they can also cause problems with analog pedals like the FY-

2 Fuzz.

If you have some pedals connected to the input on your amp, and other pedals

connected to the effects loop on your amp, then you should not operate these

pedals from the same power supply. The effects loop is often not on the same

ground level as the input, and using the same power supply for input and

effects loop pedals can cause a ground loop, which will result in hum and

noise in your analog pedals. You should use one power supply for your input

pedals, and a different power supply for your effects loop pedals.

Because the FY-2 Fuzz is a fully analog pedal, it is highly susceptible to any

noise on the power supply line. Some digital effects may generate high

frequency noise on the power supply line, and the FY-2 Fuzz may pick up this

noise and amplify it. If you encounter this problem then you should operate

the FY-2 Fuzz on a separate power supply from the digital effects pedals

which are causing the problem.
