The Companion is a purpose-built solution for a classic problem: making vintage-style fuzz pedals sound right after a buffer, wah, wireless system, or anything else that alters your guitar’s natural impedance. Traditional fuzz circuits, especially Fuzz Face-style pedals, rely on the high-impedance signal from your guitar pickups. Put a buffer in front, and you’ll often lose dynamics, character, and that expressive, woolly texture fuzz is known for.
Companion fixes this. It’s a compact, always-on circuit designed to sit between any buffered signal and your fuzz pedal, restoring the interaction that fuzz circuits crave. It reintroduces the impedance and frequency response your fuzz expects, bringing back the touch sensitivity, richness, and musical feel, without having to rearrange your entire pedalboard.
Whether you run a wireless rig, rely on buffered bypass pedals, or just want your fuzz to behave predictably in any setup, Companion is the invisible hero. Featuring a humbuckers/single-coil toggle, plug it in once, and forget it's there, until you switch on your fuzz.
