My take on Fuzz. I started playing guitar in 1960, played Chet, The Ventures and sang etc. Used guitar clean for years. Bought my first (and only Fuzz pedal) in late'66. It's a Gibson Maestro Fuzz-Tone. During that period I played through a Black Face Pre-CBS Fender, Super Reverb. I have owned many amps, but that is still my Go-To Amp. The last band I was in was called The Coelacanths, in 2005. Me, my original drummer and bass player from the band I was in when I bought the Fuzz-Tone and various other members gigged for about 3 years. I love fuzz. I have never needed any other Fuzz pedal. All I ever have to do is put in a new battery when needed. I don't understand why someone wouldn't like that sound. It was used sparingly and appropriately, when a song needed it only. I no longer gig but we Jam still, and I still use that pedal and amp.

@@sergedenovo2389 Jesus Christ dude lmao

[@Metalbass1979]

You're never too old to gig out until you're pushing up daisies. 😉 Very good post, sir. Have you seen the OneSpot 9v battery adaptor plug? It plugs into those old pedals into the battery terminal. It'll save you a ton in battery costs.

[@mattdyck9931]

@@stanislavmigra Yes, I actually have a tubescreamer. Occasionally I find the sound to my liking, but since building my fuzz pedal and Bluesbreaker pedal I've noticed all the same problems with it that Rhett described in one of his last videos. I've basically not really used my TS-9 more than like twice this past couple years, so I'll either mod it or sell it and build something (subjectively) better.

Fuzz Addict here! I got my first fuzz 12 years ago; It was an MXR MC 402, which is called a boost/overdrive, but is based on the Freddie Fuzz. The next two were the EWS Fuzzy Drive, then the Retro Channel The Fuzz, which is a Mk. 2 ToneBender 'clone'. This past weekend I put the Retro Channel on the board again and it was Awesome! It works well with humbuckers, but singles work just as well. I have a reissue EH Ram's Head that is really good too. Great video!

You really coax great Tone out of Fuzz pedals. Always benefit from watching your walk-through posts. There’s a huge squishiness that doesn’t always come through in other demos? Fuzz is so interactive, that I think a lot of players get thrown off? You have really helped me to TOTALLY get into Fuzz. I LOVE it! Way more than “ordinary” High Gain. There’s a FILTHINESS that you can ONLY get from Fuzz!

[@nazfrde]

While other people can do wonderful things with fuzz, I can not. Therefore I am not particularly enamored with the effects.

[@slydogtom]

Rhett, that was fargin fantastic. Man, you’re the bomb !!!

[@nurk_barry]

Six months ago I was one of those guitar players we never really “got“ fuzz and I’ve been playing for over 20 years. Used a lot of hi-gain Marshall amps live over the years and considered that pop-punk rock tone to be my home base. Needless to say, I’ve recently acquired a jhs 3-series fuzz after realizing I wanted to build a new pedalboard and expand my tonal palette and now I’ve been looking to buy an EHX op-amp fuzz to get the Billy Corgan pumpkins sound. That modern fuzz sound. Before I got a chance to buy that pedal I saw this lovely thing pop up a few days ago and I immediately ordered it from SweetWater mi utes after learning that it existed, mostly because I know how things sell out nowadays and I didn’t want to miss this pedal. I “get” fuzz now and use it when jamming with my brother all the time now. It’s one of my favorite types of distortion. It’s just so cool and chewy. Of course I’m also in deep with pedals now, having recently bought a photocell univibe and the new mxr deep phase. I must be trying to channel my inner-hendrix subconsciously….

[@yourichosuarchive]

this is probably one of the best videos I have seen from you, tone sounds great

[@R3TR0R4V3]

A Fuzz Face type circuit is a great place to start.. Super versatile and not overwhelming, but the volume knob is key! 👍 I think my favorite fuzz pedal is the VFE Fuzz Duo though.. It has both switchable germanium & silicon transistor options, so it pretty much does everything. 😎

[@mattgilbert7347]

Vfe are underrated

[@DRAGONGOD008]

Great video! The guitar volume knob is one of our most important tools.

[@brianhuguley5448]

Great video as always. Longtime Boss FZ-3 user which appears to be the inspiration for the design of the FZ-1w. I preordered the FZ-1w immediately when it was announced without even watching a video. Now I’m assured I made a great purchase decision.

[@4stringz.]

I love the tones on this pedal! Dying to hear a demo on bass

[@danvitco771]

Well...I learned something today. Rolling off the Strat volume gradually cleans up the sound in a musical way. Well done.

[@redguitar6062]

I rarely take my Strat above 7.

[@--BA--]

Great tips! Don't be afraid! Making friends with fuzz is easier if you understand what it is. When you gently overdrive a tube amp (edge of breakup) you tend to get even-order harmonics, which are essentially stacked octaves. This doesn't add much dissonance, so doesn't need to impact what you play. But when you hard clip, especially with most solid state gain stages, you get square waves, which stack ODD-order harmonics. This is good for making single notes sound more like power chords, but since it's adding 5ths etc, it gets ugly fast if you hit it with complex intervals, especially thirds. You can use fuzz comfortably dialed back, as Rhett demonstrates beautifully here, or use it to brighten & enrich simple lines & punchy rhythms. Less is more, listen and adjust.

Great video on fuzz! My first distortion type pedal was a muff fuzz in 1980. I loved that pedal and after a few years it stopped working and unfortunately, I moved away from fuzz into regular distortion pedals. However, I've circled back around to fuzz pedals again and after seeing this video I'm excited to get the Boss Fuzz pedal that you are showcasing. Thanks for the great explanation into the various uses for fuzz!

[@gcvrsa]

Killer opening track. I wouldn't have expect something like that out of you, so thank you for surprising me!

Hi Great Video Rhett! I like that you did not simply run through the pedal characteristics just like many others will do (which is always useful don't get me wrong). But it is nice that you instead show how to use it for those who have difficulties handling them (I am one of them). Also it looks to me like a great alternative to all those who could not get a TB-2w. Hopefully this one will be in the same price range as other Wazza Craft;

[@harrassee]

I fell into the "don't know what to do with fuzz and kinda scared camp" - now I actually have some fuzz options I really like its interaction with guitar volume and turning back the guitar volume and layering it on an amp at the edge of break up creates a really nice OD tone which is more my bag (I layer all my dirt/distortion over amp breakup) Oh, and please do a video on the TripleGraph.

[@carterwalker6006]

Best intro so far. The shot at 1:47 literally made my jaw drop. I also love these types of videos ( waiting on the Shoyles fuzz ) but a lot of pedals have a barrier to entry for me as a broke college student. I love listening and getting into pedals, but there isn't anywhere local for me to try them. And for the price point, it's hard to blindly buy off KZbin demos. It would be really cool to see you review or talk about some of your favorite plugins, although I know you're mostly an analog guy. Keep it up, Rhett!

You've definitely peaked my interest in fuzz now... you did an earlier video I remember featuring the JHS series of fuzz pedals and that video helped me realize that I was a fan of the Tone Bender circuit. Now I haven't yet used it but it's definitely on my list of new gear. I can't say that I ever "hated" fuzz but it's clear I just didn't understand it and most likely just associated it with stoner rock or doom metal which wasn't my thing... but the context of using it the way you've explained in this video definitely makes me want one now...cheers

[@formulajoe2]

The intro reminded me of “High” by Tripping Daisy. Awesome video.

[@Mr.D34]

I used to not like fuzz pedals but that changed a couple of months ago. Fuzz pedals are great. They respond differently every type of pickups more so than any other drive pedal. Also beware that there are too many weird sounding ones as well. One thing i don't understand is the weirder they get the more expensive they become. Start with a big muff or fuzz face type of pedal, you can't go wrong with those.

[@NuwandaSM]

My first use of Fuzz was a Big Muff in a music store, I thought it sounded terrible, too much distortion, total disruption of sound for no reason, thought i would have never bought one. Some months later my Blues Driver failed while playing and a friend of mine borrowed me his Big Muff because I needed some kind of distortion. I was blown away how much it sounded good while playing with the band, cutting through in the right spot for guitar. TL;DR: Fuzz should never be heard on its own, listen to it in the bandmix, it really is gamechanging.

[@hunkydorian]

I mostly play clean but I got a Big Muff many many years ago and it's all I need.

[@sgeggbub1008]

Lent*

[@tritonmosquito9348]

And the Big Muff doesn't really clean up with the guitare volume. Which is a good thing to me because I can set my volume to work with the overdrives on my cleanish tone, and then kick the BM in for a heavy chorus. It's all I need !

[@KaninTuzi]

Fuzz also sounds wildly different when run on battery power vs DC. Battery is much better.

[@ethanpearson897]

There are other reasons why you might not have liked the sound. Fuzz really always needs to be the first pedal in your signal chain, if not it can be kinda funky sounding. But it all is up to personal taste, I still love the sound of fuzz even when it’s not in a mix.

[@pensatorseven1898]

Another great video Rhett.

[@bellsclubsbarsandbows76]

I think I might just use this as a saturation pedal to back up my box of war as a serious distortion box. Thanks for the awesome tip Mr. Shull!

[@redguitar6062]

Hi Rhett. Excellent video. Thanks to you and a few other channels I finally took the plunge and bought a mini Fuzz Face (red) and it's now on my rather minimal board as an always on pedal. I just use the guitar volume pot to get what I need out of it as a when. After the fuzz I just have a compressor and a klon-clone overdrive in that order. I run the lot into the UAFX Ruby and out into Logic. I can't recommend fuzz highly enough. Many thanks again for giving me a different way to think about this effect and do something genuinely new (for me at least).

[@joelcraig7524]

I've been studying Hendrix and have not used a Fuzz before. I was on Amazon and found a $25 Azor Fuzz. Got one today and plugged into my Marshall plus Boss reverb and DD3. I was able to recreate Jimi's smooth Fuzz tone. Something to consider. I'm an overdrive guy normally but I'm adding this to arsenal with my Nobels ODR mini. Thanks for this lesson.

[@shellsjoint]

Been checking this out and best Fuzz pedal I’ve heard… GO BOSS!!

[@jimwilliams746]

The trick is finding the right amp and fuzz combination. Then keep the amp at a level that you can control the fuzz tone through the volume on the guitar.

[@adylp7818]

I’m not into the really high gain fuzz sounds but enjoy using a fuzz for low gain sounds in a swampy blues context. I know it’s not transparent but I think fuzz can add loads more character than an overdrive (especially the TS 😉). Great video Rhett.

[@ianmac4201]

gotta say that opening jam was just AWESOME

[@createlovehappy]

Cool video. Maybe do a part two where you go deeper with more examples of the ways you can use it in a band setting to fill in like you talked about. I could have used this in the 90’s for my band PEEL which was heavy grungy drop d territory. We were a trio with me as singer. With this I could have done single note lines but have it sound fuller. Great tip.

Add: You can put a tube screamer overdrive in front of the fuzz and make it sound like a middy tight distorion. Or i also love Bluesbreaker style od in front of fuzz to clean it up very nicely. Dont add buffered bypass in front of germanium fuzz tho, it messes with the signal.

[@mal2ksc]

The way I put it when I listed one common order for pedals was "some pedals are divas and have to go first, or near first, and the rest of this list comes after them." Germanium fuzz was the textbook example as far as I was concerned.
