Every played an
original FuzzFxxe from around 1970? Hint: not AT ALL the same
sound as ones with the same namesake being mass-produced
currently) Ours has Two intentionally mismatched (for Harmonic
content)
Silicon transistors that
snarl and spit... not for the meek! If you put the
"Fuzz" on 10 you will rip, and you might get all sorts
of oscillation and weirdness...but that's Rock. Don't try using
it with a wah wah...you can't, and neither could Jimi, without
it screaming and howling. You want polite and quiet?...go
elsewhere. You want art in a box? Come on in.
Housed in a 16 gauge
steel box and Powder coated Deep Blue, this pedal is
a bit unruly but with some warmth... ideal for older 4
input Marshall amps, it has much more FUZZ than the '69
Pedal and includes a Mid control for extra clarity and
cut.
I got my
hands on Eric Johnson's Blue Fuzzface that he used from "Tones"
through "Ah Via Musicom" period (now owned by Ian
Moore) and incorporated a few of its tonal secrets into the
'70 pedal with staggering sonic results!
