Cog Effects Mini Bass Board


Smaller, better, meaner. The Tarkin mk2 is based on the Green Russian, just like the mk1, great for the bass guitar and thick guitar sounds, but this time it's squeezed into the pedalboard-friendly 1590A enclosure. It'll do the classic, smooth fuzz sound we all know and love, but it will also do a lot more than that.

Increase the Fuzz knob for more sustain and distortion. The Tone knob takes you from deep rumbling wool through to nasty ice-pick fizz. Bass players will likely not venture past the 2 o'clock point without physical abuse from bandmates, but it's there if you need it.

The LPF and HPF switches adjust the corner frequencies of the filters that make up the Tone control, allowing you to add low- and high-mids respectively. These controls help cut through a live mix and give you the option to add more punch to your fuzz sound. As you would expect, these switches interact with the Tone knob, so experimentation is highly encouraged.

Inside you'll find switches to adjust the two clipping stages. In position 1, the clipping is smoother, and in position 2 the clipping has more bite. You can also remove the clipping diodes from either stage using these switches.

Overall, this tiny terror will fit on any pedalboard and is an extremely versatile fuzz box for guitar and bass.


* Fuzz, Tone and Level controls provide a range of fuzz tones

* LPF and HPF allow classic Green Russian tones or more cutting tones

* Internal switches adjust clipping flavour and can remove diodes 

* 2.1mm Boss-style 9v DC input (power supply not included)

* True Bypass Switching

* Die-cast Aluminium Hammond 1590A box

Tarkin Fuzz

A streamlined version of the two-channel Knightfall 66, the Mini 66 provides simplicity and versatility in a tiny Hammond 1590A enclosure. Don't let the size fool you, this thing sounds massive.

The Voice knob of the Knightfall 66 is replaced with a three-position Fat switch, giving control over low end content before the gain stage. Similarly, the Tone knob is replaced by the three-position Cut switch to tame high end post-clipping. The filtered Clean channel of the Knightfall 66 is included, designed to integrate in a more natural sounding way than a typical full range clean signal.

With nine different and repeatable settings to use in conjunction with the Gain knob, plus the Clean level knob, the Mini 66 is a huge sounding overdrive in a pedalboard-friendly enclosure. This is absolutely the mini overdrive your pedalboard is crying out for.

Mini 66 Bass Overdrive

Huge analogue octave tones, tiny enclosure. The T-16 is the smallest analogue octave pedal around, yet still has the flexibility and tone to run with the big boys. As well as level controls for the clean signal and octave down signal, a variable Filter control (like the one on the T-16's big brother, the T-65) is included to allow shaping of the octave down signal from buzzy and synthy through to fat sub tones and everything in between. Find the right octave tone for your sound and your rig. 

The T-16 is built to last, with all jacks panel-mounted rather than PCB-mounted, and features true bypass switching. No need to compromise on size, on quality, or on tone. Awesome. 


* Clean and Down level controls are independent

* Filter allows you to shape your octave down tone

* 2.1mm Boss-style 9v DC input (power supply not included)

* Built into the tiny Hammond 1590A aluminium enclosure

* True Bypass

Sag Hallo zu R-1 (ehemals Rogue One). Ein solides Stück gebäudezerschmetternder, die erste Reihe dezimierender Großartigkeit.

R-1 hat zwei voll ausgestattete Grand-Tarkin-Kanäle plus einen zusätzlichen analogen Oktavkanal, der parallel hinzugefügt werden kann. Jeder Grand-Tarkin-Kanal hat Regler für Fuzz, Level, Tone, Mids und Clean Level sowie Kippschalter, um die Dioden von jeder Clipping-Stufe zu entfernen und die Fülle des Kanals zu ändern, um Ihren idealen Fuzz-Sound aus allen Modellen der Triangle-, Ram's Head-, Russian- und NYC-Ära einzustellen. Der A/B-Fußschalter wechselt zwischen den beiden Fuzz-Kanälen und ermöglicht Ihnen, mit Ihren Füßen auf drastisch unterschiedliche Einstellungen zuzugreifen.

Say hello to R-1 (formerly Rogue One). A solid chunk of building-crushing, front-row-decimating awesomeness.

R-1 has two full featured Grand Tarkin channels, plus an additional analogue octave channel that can be added in parallel. Each Grand Tarkin channel has knobs for Fuzz, Level, Tone, Mids, and Clean Level, plus toggle switches to remove the diodes from either clipping stage and to change the fullness of the channel to dial in your ideal fuzz sound from all the Triangle, Ram's Head, Russian and NYC era models. The A/B footswitch swaps between the two fuzz channels, allowing you to access drastically different settings with your feet.

R-1 Fuzz Octave

The T-47 Analogue Octave is the perfect solution when you need more than one octave sound but don't need the complexity of the T-70 or the hassle of multiple octave pedals. Problem solved.

The T-47 features the full control sets of two T-16's, with level controls for clean signal and octave down signal plus the Filter control to adjust the octave down tone for each channel. The A/B footswitch allows you to swap between the two presets on the fly. Simplicity and versatility. 

With north-mounted jacks and a footprint not much wider than a single T-16 with jack plugs engaged, the T-47 provides amazing flexibility and incredible tones in a super compact enclosure.
