A follow-on to the cult classic and now discontinued 0XEAE Fuzz, the Glaive is an IC-based octave fuzz that absolutely rips.

The Electronic Audio Experiments Glaive is the most dangerous gain device in the EAE lineup. This discordant yet deceptively versatile op amp fuzz is capable of over +80dB of gain. The Weight knob adjusts a lightly resonant high pass filter at the input, for tones ranging from tight, ripped- speaker grind to bass-rich sludge. Texture blends in a full-wave rectified analog signal, producing an octave up that gets fed into the fuzz input. Use it for subtle scrambling, or to generate piercing intermodulation products and sub-bass artifacts with a synthesizer-like attack. The LPF toggle can focus harsh overtones or unleash a full-spectrum cut through any mix. Finally, the Squelch toggle enables a brute-force, highly effective bias gate that can temper even the most fanatical gain levels and impart a crumbly, ripping quality to the note decay.

The whole package is rounded out with a robust, high-headroom 24V internal power supply and quiet buffered bypass with intelligent momentary/latching functionality. Indeed, despite its belligerent nature, the Glaive possesses a deadly finesse.
