My Top 5 Favorite Fuzz Pedals

[@harrysachs2274]

"talking about fuzz for an hour and a half wouldn't work for KZbin" That Pedal Show entered the chat.

[@mattgilbert7347]

They can do an hour on just one boost pedal. Some say crazy..I say that's entertainment.

[@harrysachs2274]

@@mattgilbert7347 damn right. Probably my favorite two guitar nerds on KZbin.

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

If you look at Leonardo da Vinci's painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel..god reaches out and touches man's finger. If you look really close that man has a Maestro FZ-1 Fuzz Tone clutched in his other hand. So a few hours talking Fuzz pedals can not be treated lightly :-)

Things on Rhett’s “you can never have too many…” list: 1) Fuzz pedals 2) Novo guitars 3) Any amp that isn’t a Fender black or silver face

[@kodykindhart5644]

Missing out on those sounds You don’t like Jerry or srv or allman bros?

[@mightbefamousofficial]

Fender Blue JR is a good amp for pedals

[@DGoetz26]

Black panel Fenders are my favorite, just not what Rhett seems to gravitate towards, hence the way the comment is structured.

[@graysingleton6456]

@Not In The Box I don’t think he’s ever said anything knocking those amps. But he definitely has a thing for amps with gain. Also a lot of people know what fenders sound like (clean and loud) his channel is more about teaching people about gear than showing you his favorites all the time

[@chrisegg7936]

please feel free to make as many 20-minute videos as you need to go through every fuzz you own! I for one would happily watch an hour and a half of that but I also recognize that I'm insane.

[@MatthewScottmusic]

Sounding huge as always Rhett! ✌🏻🤘🏻

[@maxchristofferson]

We need a collab between you two!!

[@sirstashalot7441]

@@maxchristofferson I agree

[@RhettShull]

Thanks man!!

[@RafaelAbiSaber]

Awesome guitarists !!

[@ZaneDalton]

Collab coming?

[@adrianwarner8686]

That laugh at 5:00 is exactly why everyone should own at least one fuzz. They're raw, crazy and pure joy to play around with.

[@markojur1]

Can’t believe your sola sound bender didn’t make the cut. Literally the best sounding fuzz I’ve heard you play. Ever.

[@coffeemug8469]

if this was a promo for that beetronics pedal, well done because im sold

[@kcussrebutuemos4815]

That sounded the best to me too.

[@jimmynholly7677]

So your favorite pedals of all time just came out a few months ago. This sounds like an advertisement

[@ZRobertson91]

"All Time Favorite," is for sure a series I'd be interested in watching

[@absea7918]

Congrats! You are a natural for this format - glad you are able to support you and your family with this side of the music industry. I don't think many would have imagined 10+ years ago when KZbin started that so much would shift to it, but you do a great job educating, and entertaining.

[@matthewcole6456]

I yearn for the day when we can finally see an end to this slide tone war between Josh and Rhett. Far too many a string hath broken, far too many a glass, shattered.

[@timchalmers1700]

I hope the war never ends. It makes me laugh - I know it's all just a nerdy joke.

[@duanehealing5965]

To be serious for a moment, the way Rhett, Josh, Rick Beato, Keith Williams, Dave Onorato and others all lend their expertise to each other to make all of their channels better is an inspiration.

[@LiechtensteinGuy]

Only the chosen one can bring balance to the world: Derek Trucks.

[@Henry-uv9xu]

Rhett is such a guitarist that he turns the bass down in the mix even when he’s playing the bass 😂 Love your videos dude

[@migrantfamily]

I guess it’s testament to my geekdom that the thing I choose to comment on is your fabulous impression of Josh, well done!

[@Zeinzu2]

I was ready for this to be a mini-series. PLEASE do!!!!! Love from Akron. HOME OF EARTHQUAKER. (best pedals ever)

[@Llyrin]

My favorite fuzz box is the Maestro FuzzStain. I bought this for $50 in 1978 (my SG Studio was $400 at the same time). It has a Sustain, Soft, and Hard, with a Drive selector wheel (0-10), and a Volume wheel (also 0-10) that acts like a Boost. And it has a bypass. I love the tone on this pedal and have for 43 years.

[@IanOPadrick]

20 minutes dedicated to my favorite effect from one of my favorite players? Yes please

[@mapledelight]

Congrats to you and your wife on your new home. Hopefully a nicer home than if you were a college or uni lecturer ! You taught us all loads so you well deserve it.

[@DCJayhawk57]

Hoof Reaper is great, it's my only fuzz and plenty for me. Can get some great overdrive tones with it as well, and pretty much any classic rock fuzz tones.

[@urile9912]

I love how you make the video so entertaining to watch, good job😁

[@Ben.Morrison.]

That Fuzz Factory (CBA) was huge!!!!!!!!! Great vid..!

[@mindfall82]

You always have the coolest guitars! And I love everything I've heard from BeeTronics

[@BV_Beve]

Ce sont les sons la fuzz!! .... félicitations pour la nouvelle maison, Tilly et Rhett

[@andrewwilkey]

Love the summary and demos. Dig the idea of a “favorites” series. And congrats on the house!

[@santiagocolina]

I LOVE YOUR CONTENT! PLEASE DONT STOP UPLOADING- ITS HELPING ME DURING MY REHAB

[@TraneFrancks]

The slide tone meme between you and Josh always makes me giggle. Absolutely classic. Gotta admit that I was a fuzz naysayer when I joined the channel all that time ago. Between you and TPS, I've been converted. I now have an EHX Octavix. Into a Soul Food and then a Maxon FL301 flanger, it's the sound of the gods.

[@discobunny4eva759]

Love my Octavix and Crayon.

[@TraneFrancks]

@@discobunny4eva759 I've since added a Deluxe Big Muff Pi to the arsenal. Really, really enjoying its flexibility.

[@robcerasuolo9207]

So glad that I tuned into this video, cuz the slow burns through fuzzies and timies are my JAM, and you nailed that shit so nicely.

[@ignacioernesto]

thanks for taking one step back from the camera so it doenst feel creepy when i watch your videos. also your fuzz tone in this videos is amazing

[@meeno_the_man]

Huge congrats on the new home. It’s a great next step, home ownership. The deeper the roots, the sweeter the fruit. And yes, a favorites series would be appreciated and devoured.

[@Scoots1994]

A series? Yes please. My next 5 favorite fuzz pedals part 1, part 2, part 3 ... All you need is Fuzz, Fuzz is all you need. (TPS tm)

[@albertplaysguitar]

Killer tones! Fuzz makes you smile, man! The tracks sound inspired! Hell, I’m inspired to explore more fuzz...

[@Jack_S_Albert]

I was a drive guy before I know my first fuzz...fuzzes are very expressive!

[@toddbeeman5933]

Intoxicating tones, as usual.. another great upload, Sir Rhett! Congrats on the new home/studio! If I lived locally, I'd offer to help with the move and set up.. Sending peace & love from Missouri -Todd

[@rickybella7224]

Absolutely turn this into a series please!

[@tommasobaron9027]

Yes please Rhett! Make it a series! And about the home and the new studio, YOU DESERVE IT!

[@Prettynoise]

Rhett and Tilly, congratulations on your new house. So stoked for you two. I can't wait to see the next vlog studio you will be building. I will no doubt be epic.

[@benher973]

YOUR SO VAIN......I WILL NO DOUBT BE EPIC

[@recklesstoboggan]

LOVE Beetronics! Have the Swarm and the Royal Jelly. Vezzpa sounds like a must have. Put me on the list. Sounds phenomenal!

[@richardsp2794]

What amazing sounds and songs. This was one of those videos where it was all about the playing and listening.

[@unfinishedBridges]

The Bliss Factory and Cheese Ball are my two go to fuzz pedals.

[@donnystephens8032]

Great vid and playing Rhett as always. Congrats to you and your wife and the new home !!!

[@EasyHeat]

Okay Rhett, that jam for the Caroline Shigeharu Fuzz just had me straight groovin' to the point of harmonically belting out random lyric and syllable Bu11 $h1t! Woke up my GF! Hahaha! Very good stuff my dude. Within this metaphorically vast KZbin fog of aggro "metal" content? Your vids are always like a reassuring lighthouse reminding me of my original Rock roots and influences. ✌🖖

[@druwk]

Great Post! I think I could watch a whole hour of Fuzz! Over drives, echoes...great idea for a Series

[@aaronkim2090]

Congrats on the move! You probably wont see this or care, I'm a working bassist from NJ, I used to never use any sort of distortion, but after watching your videos over the last year, my ear has come to like and expect it, I use fuzz alot now, I have a Walrus Jupiter, and I have a SunFace on order. Im genuinely surprised not to see a Fuzz Face style circuit on this list. Anyways do make this a series, I'd love to see your top 5s for other effects. And, it has become a dream of mine to play/jam with you. Maybe next NAMM if you have some time?

[@427viper]

Love the Favourite thing. Please make that a series!

[@srsanders455]

Thanks Rhett, this is a great selection of fuzz pedals. Keep these videos coming.

[@arleighhelfer49]

Love your reaction at 18:33 or so. It's as if you think the pedal is about to leap at you, spitting fuzz like a wounded alley cat.

[@daveduval674]

Congrats on the new home!! Keep going with the favorite pedal theme.

[@srvmotoman]

Hellz yeah! Even the camera is jamming out @2:25

[@trolabee]

Thank you for taking the time to thank us. We all appreciate the effort you make to create informative, educational, inspirational content for us guitar nuts!

Bliss Factory nails the Gary Clark Jr tone. Nice demo. Opened up my ears to new possibilities in the world of fuzz.

[@ieblack37]

The mystery blip 18:34: Rhett's reaction cracked me up.

[@Birbdup]

The Mythos - Golden Fleece and the Royal Jelly - Beetronics are my two favourite fuzz pedals of all time.

[@kalkidasofficial]

Indeed!!! 🙌

[@GlennMichaelThompson]

There are so many great fuzz units available now compared to when I bought my first Big Muff Pi in the early to mid 70's. One that I've been having tons of fun with lately is Walrus Audio's Kangra Filter Fuzz. Didn't make your list, but man... I'm really blown away by it! Especially flexible and versatile when using an expression pedal with it. Great for filtering other effects and for stacking gain stages. Great video and tones as always... cheers!

[@treemantravisdavis6273]

Dude! This is some of your best playing. The echo stuff and the very first thing you played were mint. Keep up the tunes man.

[@timm6399]

This is why I like this channel. I like learning about gear.

[@RambleTone]

Congrats on the new house! 🎉🏡 Can’t wait to see the new pad’s home studio 👍

Def like the idea of the top 5 series and would love to see it. Good luck with the move!

[@jjnolan]

Congrats on the new house, good luck with the move (never fun). Great video, nice idea for a series. That Earthquaker sounds awesome. Spiral makes interesting fuzzes too.

[@benjaminlittle7916]

great video on fuzz pedals, would love to see it made into a series! Also would be awesome to see a beginning to end video on setup of the studio in the new house. Congrats on the home!

[@marcsullivan7987]

Nice timing. I’ve been watching this channel for a couple years. But I’ve wakened to fuzz a couple days ago. Been playing for decades, and never had a fuzz! I really want to be able to make the always-on-ride-the-volume-knob cleanup and I’m looking for the right entryway pedal

[@chicopacha2169]

I see what you did there with the "Cissy Strut" lick!! Very cool man, congratulations for the video!

[@mightbefamousofficial]

Nice choices. Grwat job demoing these. I love Fuzz pedals. Just made one under Might Be Famous and happy we did. Great sound!

[@jat6291]

Damn that Vespa sounds amazing. I think I NEED that pedal.

[@Jack_S_Albert]

me too! really curious to hear more about this new pedal!

[@tatoberry]

Me too !

[@gmanchefboy]

And congrats on the house! Would definetly like to see more Top 5s.

[@BruceKnouseMusic]

Love hearing your pedal picks, they're always good but different from a lot of the stuff we usually see on KZbin!

[@michael_caz_nyc]

Congrats on the new house. Look forward to the new home studio video-tour.

[@richhubacker4012]

that little ditty at 2:22 is SMOKING.

[@dylanadams1455]

Please do many, many episodes like this! You have a wonderful touch and obviously know how to get great tones - there is a surprising range of sounds coming out of these pedals. I am yet to buy my first fuzz pedal other than what is onboard the MS3, I feel like my eyes have been opened here. And great news about the house!

[@guitarifuldexter6366]

Fuzz is one of my favourite pedals ever! I don’t have one but it sounds AMAZING!! 🤘🎸

[@alpha120689]

Been waiting for this one. Fuzz is my go to effect.

[@xdoctorblindx]

Fairfield Circuitry's Unpleasant Surprise is ridiculously underrated and is my personal favourite.

[@mitchellbotting]

Really liked the Cissy Strut quote. Great stuff as always.

[@peterdueland4043]

[@ReiCow]

I love that his fave fuzz pedal show doesn't include the only one he sold me on - the positron collider. Moo!

[@andrewcerecedes4757]

Sounding epic as always!! Also, though guitar is my main instrument I've been playing bass for over a year and your bass playing is also epic! :)

[@lewisgeyer1440]

Congrats on the new home, thanks for producing great videos.

[@davidjameschamberlain]

For me, my favorites are the Catalinbread Perseus (A better Blue Box), the Voodoo Labs Proctavia, and the Electro Harmonix Microsynth (when you ignore the filter sweeps and triggers, and just stick to the voices, you get an amazing noiseless parallel octave/drive/fuzz)

[@bernardofernandes2226]

Rhett, you do deserve the best! Keep on shining!

[@julianbulatao9527]

YESSS more of these "my favorite" videos please!!

Congrats for your moving and your new house wish you a wonderful time Rhett.

[@sheppardrj]

Congratulations on the new house and studio! Well deserved.

[@j.hammer573]

1.Fuzz, 2.Delay, 3.OD would be my favorite effects. I like all fuzzes I’ve owned but I keep coming back to the Big Muff type of circuit. The Russian muffs are the most versatile for me. I currently have the Hoof (sorry Hewf) on my nano pedalboard. But, even weird Muffs are fun like The White Elk. I’ll look for the Hoof/Reaper on the used market. Thanks for the video.

[@phillseagram]

9:24 what a fun jam. Your enjoyment of the pedal shows through :)

[@jasonmcgary]

Beetronics is definitely one of the coolest pedal companies out there.the circuit boards everything just shows how much they care.
