The Alpha Haunt from Old Blood Noise Endeavors takes fuzz to a new level of control and creativity. Building on the original Haunt circuit, it offers an enormous range of tones—from smooth, vintage warmth to sputtering, gated chaos. Designed for musicians who crave texture and flexibility, this pedal transforms your signal into anything from rich harmonic drive to full-blown sonic destruction.
Its circuit features a switchable fuzz range and bias control that let you fine-tune the fuzz character, while a parallel “Enhance” clean blend adds clarity and punch to your tone. The active three-band EQ (Low, Mid, High sliders) combined with a Low-Pass Filter toggle provides surgical tone-shaping power, allowing you to dial in precise frequencies or sculpt massive, dark walls of fuzz. The Gate and Bias knobs invite experimentation—tightening your sound for percussive punch or opening it for raw, unfiltered aggression.
The Alpha Haunt’s rugged design and soft-touch relay bypass make it a performance-ready powerhouse. It runs on standard 9V DC power and features intuitive control layout for fast adjustments. Whether you’re chasing vintage fuzz saturation, sludgy doom textures, or experimental gated tones, the Alpha Haunt delivers endless sonic possibilities—all with OBNE’s unmistakable character and build quality.
