{"product_id":"jhs-pedals-coyote-431756","title":"Coyote","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA resurrected Moonrock Fuzz: G.S. Wyllie's lost circuit\u003c\/h3\u003eThe CoyoteSwell is part of a unique story: that of the \u003cstrong\u003eMoonrock Fuzz\u003c\/strong\u003e, an obscure model conceived by \u003cstrong\u003eG.S. Wyllie\u003c\/strong\u003e, a discreet builder from North Carolina, known for crafting \"old-school\" (sand-cast enclosures, hand-etched circuits) and especially for developing a fuzz \u003cstrong\u003eusing a transformer in an unconventional way\u003c\/strong\u003e. The result does not fit into any classic category: it's neither a Fuzz Face variant, nor a Big Muff, nor a simple Octavia. This is a \u003cstrong\u003enew species of octave fuzz\u003c\/strong\u003e, built on a circuit long considered lost.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor which guitarists, styles, and contexts?\u003c\/h3\u003eThe CoyoteSwell is aimed at musicians who appreciate effects with a true personality, from the \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate guitarist\u003c\/strong\u003e seeking a signature sound to the \u003cstrong\u003eadvanced player\u003c\/strong\u003e looking for expressive and inspiring fuzz. The Fuzz mode (center) excels for \u003cstrong\u003eshoegaze\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epsychedelic rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, stoner, and all dense rhythm parts where chord clarity is desired. The Octave mode naturally leans towards \u003cstrong\u003evintage rock\u003c\/strong\u003e and Jimi-style leads, while Swell opens a perfect field for \u003cstrong\u003eambient\u003c\/strong\u003e, cinematic intros, or textured layers in the studio.\u003cbr \/\u003eLive, it's a \"highlight moment\" pedal: just one control to manipulate, and you change your sonic language. In the studio, it becomes a texture box: guitar doubling, mono lines transforming into wild synths, or reverse tape effects without complicated reamping.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOne central control, continuous progression: Swell, Fuzz, Octave\u003c\/h3\u003eThe heart of the CoyoteSwell is its \u003cstrong\u003eSwell \/ Fuzz \/ Octave\u003c\/strong\u003e control. These are not three separate modes toggled by a simple switch: the potentiometer's sweep \u003cstrong\u003eevolves the circuit\u003c\/strong\u003e and lets you settle precisely \"between two\" if you wish.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwell zone\u003c\/strong\u003e: notes \"appear\" progressively, with a \u003cstrong\u003egate\u003c\/strong\u003e texture and a character reminiscent of reverse tape. The attack is delayed and softened because the circuit's final stage activates gradually, introducing the signal smoothly. The result: a natural swell, very sensitive to dynamics and touch, ideal for transforming a guitar into a pad or a saturated violin line.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFuzz zone\u003c\/strong\u003e (around noon): you get a full, thick fuzz with \u003cstrong\u003erich lows\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eaggressive mids\u003c\/strong\u003e. The feel is closer to a \u003cstrong\u003eTone Bender family\u003c\/strong\u003e fuzz by grain and attack, with sustain that remains usable on chords. It's a \"mature\" fuzz: present, textured, ready to carry a wall of guitars without collapsing.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOctave zone\u003c\/strong\u003e (to the right): clipping becomes deliberately \u003cstrong\u003easymmetric\u003c\/strong\u003e, altering the harmonic balance and emphasizing even harmonics, especially the second harmonic. On single notes, you get a powerful \u003cstrong\u003eupper octave effect\u003c\/strong\u003e, very expressive and particularly musical when playing higher up the neck.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe sound\u003c\/h3\u003eThe CoyoteSwell stands out by its \"living\" behavior: it doesn't just add saturation, it \u003cstrong\u003ereacts\u003c\/strong\u003e. In Swell, you find that organic, almost unstable side of gated fuzz, but with a progressive rise reminiscent of \u003cstrong\u003ereverse tape\u003c\/strong\u003e, instantly giving identity to a simple phrase. In the center, the fuzz is dense, grainy, with a bite that highlights the pick and a nice fullness in the low end.\u003cbr \/\u003eMoving toward Octave, the tone becomes sharper and more harmonic: on a monophonic line, the upper octave emerges with an incandescent quality, very much in the \"Greenwich Village spirit,\" perfect for leads in the tradition of great octave fuzzes. Playing tip: neck pickup, slightly rolled-off guitar tone, and crisp attacks often produce the clearest octave reading.\u003cbr \/\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eOctaver \/ Harmony, Distortion \/ Overdrive \/ Fuzz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esector\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eAnalog\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eelectric guitar\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePedal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGreen\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInspiration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003efull reproduction of the Moonrock Fuzz (G.S.
