Caroline Guitar Company 24k Golden Pizza

Caroline Guitar Company 24k Golden Pizza is a special anniversary edition of the beloved Hawaiian Pizza fuzz, released in honor of Caroline’s 15th anniversary.

The striking gold casing refers to this milestone as well as to the more than three thousand Hawaiian Pizza pedals the brand has built by now. But this Gold version distinguishes itself not only by its exclusive appearance.

Inside, Caroline has modified the circuit with two NOS Motorola 5089 transistors. These vintage components deliver more gain than the transistors in the regular Hawaiian Pizza while simultaneously producing slightly less noise. The result is a more aggressive and raw fuzz sound, with extra saturation and a distinct character that perfectly matches the idiosyncratic personality of the original.

Especially when you turn down the effect’s input or power supply voltage, the Hawaiian Pizza Gold reveals its unique side. The fuzz then transforms into sticky, crunchy, and almost sputtering textures that respond perfectly to your play style and settings. This makes the Gold not only a beautiful limited edition but also a unique variant of the Hawaiian Pizza with more gain, less noise, and an extra dirty fuzz character.
