Mr . Black has returned to the fray of modulation pedals with the Drunken Monkey , an envelope controlled pitch vibrato that ’ s four years in the making . Players can dial in rate and depth settings , and then dial in the amount of envelope control with the Alc / Vol control . This knob is key to getting some seasick warble worthy of the pedal ’ s name .

Mayer using a specially-selected transistor grouping that ends up cutting through the mix at any and all settings , a requirement for major-league fuzz lovers .
