Fuzz Head

I've been playing with the Fuzz Head, and I have to say that it's not only the best sounding fuzz I've tried, but it's also the most usable. I sold my MJM Foxey Fuzz in anticipation of this, and I can honestly say that this is a better product. Also, I want to commend you for encouraging tweaking. (That socketed cap idea is brilliant!) Your mods have inspired me to experiment, and I recently had great luck putting a Burr Brown chip in a Chandler Tube Driver. I like to think of it as a tube driven Klon." - Ian

"Robert - your Fuzz Head ROCKS big time. I used it at out gig tonight. Just got home and a quick note before I got to bed. Yeah - I used it in front of the clean channel of my Badcat. Used a Les Paul all night. I had the Fuzz Head on the GE setting, fuzz at 2 o'clock, head at 11 o'clock. Used it for solos. Very articulate. Sounded great. Best damn distortion pedal I've played in years. And I've played a lot of 'em too. You have a great product there my man."

"The Fuzz Head is awesome, like a fuzz and clean signal blended, better than any fuzz I have played (although Alfonso's fuzz is also very nice). What do I owe you? " - Thanks! Adam

Cheers, I have been spoiled by multi-channel high gain amps for years. No pedal has done the trick to sub for a fine point-to-point amp's overdrive channel. I'm not talking about the amount of gain (because overdrive amplifiers still rule this zone if one must have an insane amount of gain). What I'm talking about is the tone quality of a pedal. I have been not been satisfied with distortion pedals (be they fuzz or tube drivers) because they all fall short in the tone department. As soon as you turn up the gain, they all buzz out, or get muddy and can't hang with the lower notes. The Fuzz Head has terrific tone quality. The best tone quality out of the smorgasbord of pedals I have tried (from all those popular boutique pedal makers). It is articulate and hangs well with the lower notes. Close your eyes and you think you are getting that lead tone out of your tube amp and not a pedal - amazing. I have been looking for a pedal to use in front of real Marshall plexis for some time as an alternative to using channel switching amps. This is the pedal. One other note - this pedal will sound different in front of various amps. It enhances the natural tone of whatever amp it is plugged into. In other words, it doesn't take over the amp's tone circuit - this is good. One final note - I used the Fuzz Head before my Univibe clone (made by one of those infamous boutique pedal builders I referred to above). That Univibe clone sounded better than it ever has with this Fuzz Head driving it. I heard the swirls like never before. Great job Robert!" J
