Olympia

The Caroline Guitar Company Olympia is a Supa Tone Bender-style fuzz built around BC184 transistors. It served as the foundation for the later Crom pedal, offering thick, menacing fuzz tones.

The Olympia delivers the classic Tone Bender character: thick sustain, harmonic richness, and dynamic response to playing touch. It cleans up well with guitar volume adjustments and responds to pick attack variations.

As Caroline's earlier Tone Bender design before they developed the Crom's tweed-style tone circuit modification, the Olympia provides more traditional fuzz voicing. Hand-built in small batches at their Columbia, SC Distortery.
