When your effect’s battery has lost its voltage and is about to run out, it causes a broken and dirty sound, especially in fuzz and some overdrives… a sound so characteristic that some artists intentionally cause it.

With our Sag! which simulates a spent battery, you can get that sound: as simple as putting it between your power supply and your favorite fuzz or overdrive, and adjusting with the potentiometer what level of battery “wear” you want.

Depending on the effect used, the result is very different. With some overdrives it can be too radical, but with fuzz (especially germanium ones or in the Fuzz Face or Tone Bender range) it works wonders.
