Fuzz
Univox – Super Fuzz
“This is my Fuzz pedal. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fuzz pedal is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fuzz pedal is useless. Without my Fuzz pedal, I am useless. I must play my … Read more
Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh
Lots of mileage left in the Big Muff yet! Marketing spiel: Fuzz for the discerning tone seeker.ﾠ The Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh is capable of tones ranging from a clean-ish boost to a good articulate OD, but the Pharaoh thrives in bringing open hairy fuzz to a clean amp. The Pharaoh’s dual tone control is … Read more
Skreddy Lunar Module Deluxe
A great modern take on the classic fuzz pedals by Skreddy: Edgy, Aggressive Silicon Fuzz The Skreddy Pedals™ Lunar Module was designed for “that” certain silicon fuzz tone guitar solo I fell in love with on a best-selling 1973 album. I intentionally voiced this thing aggressively so it will cut through any mix. Very satisfying … Read more
Colorsound / Sola Sound Tonebender MKII Professional
The Sola Sound/Colorsound Tonebender MKII Professional is probably the second most famous Fuzz box after the Fuzz Face. It’s a three transistor fuzz circuit that creates an unholy amount of gain and sustain. For an idea of how it sounds – Jimmy Page used one with his Dragon Telecaster from the Led Zeppelin 1 era, … Read more
Sola Sound Tone Bender Professional MKII
This really doesn’t need an introduction, one of the most iconic and important effect pedals to have ever been produced and an essential part of Jimmy Page’s tone on at least a couple of well known Led Zeppelin albums. If you don’t have one then just build it. Get a measured set of PNP germanium … Read more
Marshall Supa Fuzz
Made for Marshall by Sola Sound this is essentially a slightly modified Tone Bender MkII. Fuzz Central state: The only differences between the two: the input capacitor is 10µF instead of 5µF, the bypass capacitor on the “attack” pot is 10µF instead of 5µF, Q2’s collector resistor is 47K instead of 100K, the resistor from … Read more
DAM Meathead with switchable caps
This was a request from one of our members. I wondered what the best method would be to do this, maybe using a 3 position 4 pole rotary switch, but I think this method by far gives you the most versatility. With both 3 position switches in the centre off position, the Meathead stock values … Read more
Skreddy Pig Mine
Skreddy’s description: Smooth, Intense, Sustaining Distortion Tight and aggressive fuzz/distortion Lay into the notes for that deep, harmonic saturation and violin-like sustain. All your detail and articulation are preserved throughout the sustain knob’s travel. Not too much bass, not too much high end–well balanced tone. Low noise floor, too! The mods Marc did to this … Read more
Skreddy Mayonaise
I may as well add some of the others while I’m at it! :o) From the Skreddy website: A vintage, 4-transistor distortion, made with meticulous regard to detail. All audio electronics are the same as used circa 1971. Modern upgrades include DC power, LED on/off indicator, and true bypass switching.
