The MXR M 236 pedal is a fuzz effect for electric guitar and bass, featuring a silicon circuit and adjustable operating voltage via the Variac control. At a low voltage of 5–9 V, it recreates the fuzz sound produced by a dying 9 V battery, while at 12–15 V, it increases the headroom for a cleaner, more open sound.
The Output, Gain, Tone, and Variac controls adjust the output, gain, tone, and operating voltage. The Variac control covers a range of 5–15 V, while True Bypass keeps the signal clean when the effect is bypassed. The pedal has a metal construction and is made in the USA.
