A heavy distortion based around clipping diodes, LEDs, op-amps, and NPN transistors.

Tokyo, Japan (November 28, 2017) -- ZenZero Electronics is proud to introduce the Habu, our heaviest distortion pedal yet. We call it a heavy metal distortion because that’s what it is. No beating around the bush here. Our special MOSFETs round up a multiple stage distortion that can bring all the bark you need no matter how clean your amp is. A 3-band EQ is simple yet extremely effective to shape the tone in any style you can imagine. As long as it's heavy.

A take on two different Muff circuits from two different eras.

Tokyo, Japan (September 1, 2017) -- ZenZero Electronics is excited to introduce the FuzU, our take on the venerable Muff circuit. We took two Muffs from different eras and, instead of choosing one, we put them together inside this pedal in such a way that they can happily join forces. We then added a mids control to make it versatile, and finished everything off with our MOSFET input and output stages to round up the sound into the signature ZenZero’s crunch. If you want harshness, look the other way: this fuzz is as high gain as it is smooth.

  • Ideal to build a wall of sound and fill the sonic landscape of your song. From post-grunge to blackgaze, the FuzU will cover all your needs of harmonic enchantment and destruction.
  • As much as we tweaked it, this is still a traditional Muff at heart. All the components are there, including a tone control that acts just like the slant EQ of the original: from dark and muffled, all the way up to bright and tinny, covering everything in between.
  • Unlike the original though, you will be happy to use this as a straightforward distortion: thanks to the MOSFET amplification stages, and to the independent mids control, you can lower the gain, raise the volume and push the mids to find yourself in classic rock ‘n roll territory.

The FuzU is hand-built in Tokyo using only top of the line components. All old-school through-hole technology, including lots of vertical resistors, inside a hand-polished aluminum enclosure decorated with extremely durable silk-screen printing.

A versatile preamp/boost pedal that's dead simple to use.

Tokyo, Japan (November 28, 2016) -- ZenZero Electronics is excited to introduce the 2KP, the spiritual successor to the One Knob Pony: same MOSFET heart brought to another level.

The 2KP is the only preamp/booster you will ever need. Sweet, clean, and bright, or aggressive, dirty, and warm, the 2KP does it all.
