The G.O.A.F. delivers two
vintage-equipped units
into one crushing box,
with each interacting with
the other in an extremely
musical way. The first side
is a fully-germanium take
on the old-school Baldwin-
Burns Buzzaround, a grimy
fuzz used by Robert Fripp.
The second component is
a vintage-inspired octave
up, and the combination is
enough to bring fuzz lovers
to their knees. The Skyline is a highly
dynamic fuzz that uses the
power of a resistive filter to
push the fuzz circuit, giving
a super articulate fuzz effect.
Instead of standard fuzz
controls, you get a new set
of frequency and sensitivity
controls that give you access
to never-before-heard fuzz
textures. Each and every
Recovery pedal is hand-
wired, point-to-point for
quality construction. The Quickstep is an
interesting plot twist within
the book of delay: the
footswitch is a momentary
type, so it is only active
when your foot is depressing
the switch. This gives you
blasts of lush delay only
when you want them, with
a Trails switch that lets the
repeats spill over into the
bypass signal or choke
off immediately when you
release your foot.
