What the FX66 Does
The FX66 is a distortion pedal reminiscent of the
old fuzzy faced distortions of the 60’s.You’ll feel like
you’ve had a flashback from the Monterey Pop
Festival just by connecting your guitar to the FX66
and playing.
Connecting The FX66
Connect your guitar to the input of the FX66.
Connect the output of the FX66 to the input of
your amplifier (or to the input of another effect
device you may be running).To eliminate the need
for a 9 volt battery, connect the PS200R to the AC
power jack on the FX66.

Operation of the FX66
The FX66 was designed to give you the vintage
sound typical of what bands in the 60’s used. A few
simple knob adjustments and the groovy tones will
make you feel the flower power. You’ll find yourself
saying “peace, love and rock & roll, man.”
Start by adjusting the Volume knob to match the
level of the bypassed signal. Bypass the FX66 and lis-
ten to the volume level.Then engage the distortion
and turn the Volume knob until the level is relatively
the same.
Next, you’ll want to tune in the amount of Fuzz that
you need. Rotate the Fuzz knob until you find that
psychedelic groove you’re looking for.
Now use the Low control to adjust how heavy you
want the bass frequencies to be.
Finally, use the tone knob to give your guitar the
amount of high end edge that you want.
Don’t be afraid to experiment with different knob
settings. After all, only you know the colors that you
want your music to show. It’s now up to you to
“tune in, turn on and drop out.”
