Crazy Tube Circuits Limelight

Versatile Germanium Fuzz with Vintage Character!

The Crazy Tube Circuits Limelight is an analog fuzz/distortion pedal that captures the sound of the first commercial fuzz circuits and their British derivatives. With its unique Beam control, it offers a wide range of sounds – from aggressive, gated fuzz to classic British distortion. Thanks to the use of three handpicked NOS germanium transistors, the pedal delivers an authentic vintage tone with modern versatility.

Beam Control for Flexible Tone Shaping

The Limelight’s Beam control allows continuous adjustment of the tonal character. It ranges from an aggressive, "Satisfaction"-style gated fuzz to an open, harmonic distortion reminiscent of the MKI/MKII era. This flexibility makes the pedal suitable for both classic and modern music styles.

Low-Gain Boost Function

Besides its fuzz qualities, the Limelight offers an exceptional low-gain boost function. At minimal gain setting and maximum Beam control, the pedal can be used as a transparent booster that drives your amplifier into the desired sweet spot. This feature greatly expands the pedal’s range of applications.

The Crazy Tube Circuits Limelight is a versatile pedal that appeals to both vintage enthusiasts and modern players. With its combination of authentic tone, flexible sound shaping, and rugged construction, it’s a valuable addition to any pedalboard.
