Triptychon is a sonic artwork built around three independent tone elements, each complete on its own, yet fully realized when combined. Here, those elements become the fundamental building blocks of electric guitar tone: fuzz, harmonic shaping, and amplifier drive.
 In classic recordings, these were never isolated effects. Fuzzes, octave fuzz pedals and treble boosters were pushed into already driven amplifiers, where the interaction between stages created the compression, sustain, and harmonic richness we now associate with vintage tone.
 In modern rigs, however, players often use clean platforms and rely on pedals for gain, which changes this interaction significantly. Triptychon is designed to recreate that original signal chain, allowing those classic tones to translate properly into contemporary setups.

Fuzz: The Core Voice (center panel)

At the heart of Triptychon lies an all analog 4-voice fuzz engine inspired by some of the most iconic circuits in guitar history:

  • ff: inspired by Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face

  • vtb:  inspired by Vox Tone Bender

  • 3/2: inspired by Sola Sound Tone Bender Mk1.5

  • 2: inspired by Sola Sound Tone Bender MkII

From dynamic and responsive to saturated and aggressive, each voice retains its own identity, allowing you to explore the full spectrum of classic fuzz behavior.

Boost / Upper Octave Fuzz: Harmonic Expansion (right panel)

The right panel expands the harmonic range with a dual-voice architecture for each mode.

In boost mode, it delivers two distinct treble booster voices, from classic cutting presence to a fuller, mid-focused response.

In octave mode, it becomes an upper octave fuzz, offering two distinct voices ranging from articulate and defined to saturated and harmonically rich overtones.

Drive: The Amplifier Foundation (left panel)

The left panel completes the system by recreating the feel of a pushed amplifier.

Rather than acting as a typical overdrive, it provides the compression, response, and harmonic environment where fuzzes and boosters truly come alive. It can subtly enhance sustain and clarity or be pushed further to shape the overall gain structure, just like a real amp.

Silicon Heart. Germanium Soul.

At the triptych core lies a silicon heart, beating through a custom six metal-can silicon transistor design that delivers true germanium tone and feel, with the cleanup and dynamic response players expect but without the instability.

This is not simply a matter of using specific components. It is a carefully engineered circuit approach designed to recreate the behavior, interaction, and touch sensitivity of classic germanium-based designs, while maintaining consistency in any environment.

Designed for Real-World Rigs

Classic fuzz and treble booster circuits are highly dependent on direct interaction with passive guitar pickups. In modern setups, where buffers, active pickups and wireless systems are common, this interaction is often lost. Triptychon integrates dedicated switchable anti-buffer circuits that restore the correct impedance relationship, allowing each stage to respond as intended even in complex pedalboards. Engage the anti-buffer circuits when a buffered pedal or active pickups/circuits are present before Triptychon. When connecting directly from a passive guitar pickup, leave them disengaged.

The drive section can be assigned to either the fuzz or the boost/octave footswitch, allowing it to operate within a compact, intuitive setup without increasing pedalboard complexity. For expanded control, an external, matching artwork XT footswitch (sold separately) can be connected, enabling the drive section to function completely independently. This allows deeper control over the gain structure, seamless switching between configurations, and greater flexibility without increasing pedalboard complexity.

museum quality
Format: Paperback
This is a kid's book, which is well illustrated, and useful. I have worked as a storyteller in schools. Kids of all backgrounds love native stories! All of Joseph Bruchac's books are high quality, museum pieces, just really good, the apotheosis [ideal] of what a storybook could be like. gives a very good description of the native lifeways around stories, and gives another view of native storytelling. is another book that gives you native context, by an author who also has native storybooks in print, including . Entering into native lifeways is not necessarily judgeable by white man culture, as shows. One thing one notices in native cultures is that they ask new questions, something like one sees in . I find native metaphysics to be similar to Quantum Mechanics. While not a native book, gives some ideas on how life would work, from that perspective. has stories about tricksters, which are not dissimilar to native stories. teachingdrum.org used to have a list of books of native stories, which is the most comprehensive I've seen. That is a nonprofit, and I have no connection with them, this cites the info resource only. All storytelling is fascinating. is one example of European stories about animals, which are not totally dissimilar. Stories are fascinating. If you want to entrance, train, entertain, educate, and improve children, nothing is faster or easier than storytelling.

Wonderful book for many reasons
Format: Paperback
I recommend this book for its story, cultural accuracy, and high interest action. First it is an exciting story of how conflicts arise and can be resolved with an exciting lacrosse game at the end. How cool is that? But the cultural and historical details make this a fascinating read for all ages. If you want to know about the lives of Native Americans in the New York area, written by a Native American, and put into an historically accurate story, this is a great read. I would recommend this as a high interest type of reader for middle school readers, one that would challenge them as well. The story could be about conflicts today, but the action is naturally more intense. If you are looking for an accurate portrait of Native American life, Bruchac is a wonderful author for you to choose. It is hard to find good books about northeastern Native Americans.

Engaging and educational
Format: Paperback
We really enjoyed this book as a family. My children were enthralled with characters and depiction of life in a Longhouse village. We supplemented this book with others about the Iroquois Nation and East Coast Native Americans for our homeschooling unit. It was a hit.

Great Story about Native Americans before Europeans
Format: Paperback
I read this book with my kids (11,8) as part of our unit on Native Americans before colonization. They both really enjoyed it. It helped to humanize history for them and show them that although the cultural practices were different, the characters experienced some of the same feelings, relationship challenges, and personal struggles and triumphs that we experience today.
