I am the second owner bought it off a fellow musician who used it for 3 studio recording sessions.Came with a Moog EP-3.The problem is it worked fine for 2 days then the bias went bad = haywire for lack of a better word, and the exp pedal function packed it in? I tested the exp pedal with a $1000. Fluke volt/ohm meter– works fine. It sure sounded good the 2 days it worked for me. I did email ehx/support to find out if a repair was possible.I really want to find out what went wrong with this.

I’m also experiencing issues with my CF, and I was somehow wondering whether or not it started after I used the expression pedal with it. What’s your symptom? I have a case where the fuzz circuit is extremely soft- when it’s disengaged the volume is fine.

January 23, 2017 at 10:06 am #122532MikeR61MemberHi Hugo,it’s my believe that we may have similar problems.My bias adjustment cuts in/out when any kind of pressure is applied to the top of the knob.It does this in both pre/post switch settings for fuzz selection.Faulty knob perhaps?. Same problem with the tone knob, cuts in/out when slight pressure is applied side to side and on top. These all happened at the same time with no expression output.It’s a mystery to me.I would guess it feels like a poor connection.The bias adjustment when it did work properly was kinda useless for me,I left it full clockwise position.

I did email ehx/support to find out if a repair was possible.I really want to find out what went wrong with this.I am having the same problem. I’ve already exchanged a unit and the new unit is doing the EXACT same thing. The bias knob produces a hum at around 12’oclock when the post fuzz and talk functions are engaged. The expression pedal doesn’t work. Plug it in and the volume just gets killed.
Any solutions to this? Sorry, I know this is an older trend.
