'79 V5 tone-bypass switch
It can remove the passive tone stack from the circuit for a rawer, more open sound.

Independent shopping perspective
Eye See ’78 OG Fuzz is an IC-based fuzz and distortion pedal built as a big-box replication of the V4 Big Muff circuit. Its selected ICs and through-hole components pursue that vintage circuit character, while the ’79 V5 tone-bypass switch removes the passive tone stack for a rawer, more open response. An internal adjustment provides further fine-tuning beyond the stock V4 circuit. The hand-screened, lacquer-coated folded-steel enclosure is intended for stage, studio, and rehearsal-room use.
