A Dual JFET Texture Machine! Fairfield Circuitry ~900 Fuzz | Secret Weapons Demo & Review

[@emilyharpist]

This one is SO good!!! Great demo!

[@markjohnstonofficial]

Thanks! Few things better than a really articulate fuzz.

[@Quicksilver_Cookie]

This might just be the fuzz I'm looking for. I've been on the search for something very dynamic, touch sensitive, maybe slightly out there, but with possibility to go into that chainsaw revving velcro ripping fuzz. This seems to tick all the boxes. I absolutely love that JFET gain structure. It's granular, uneven, grinding, but somehow still very pleasant. It sounds organic, if that makes sense.

I’ve had this pedal for a little while now, loving it more and more. I love that JFET grit, it’s versatility from low to high gain, that it’s so low-noise, that it cleans up beautifully, that it is effectively transparent in tone, and that it can go ANYWHERE in my chain. My fave setting is with input level fairly low and gain level maxed, gives me a lovely light gritty base (almost always on) tone. Then… I’ve got a treble booster in front of it (in full-cream mode), slamming into the first stage to punch it into extra ballsy full gain for solos etc! It’s a killer fuzz pedal! Thanks for the great demo, Mark.

subbed halfway through the intro song. nicely done

[@Nixxal]

Loving the intro with punchy music and sharp intense looks with intent into the camera :D

[@markjohnstonofficial]

Absolutely a creative choice and totally not my checking my monitor to make sure the shot looks ok. Haha

[@hekakain4108]

Mine arrives in a couple of daze. The fuzz is lovely but I'm buying it for the overdrive textures that give it an added je ne sais quoi compared to some of my many overdrives...nice demo as always Mark...

[@dorianford6227]

I was gonna sell this pedal but you actually helped me clarify great ways to use it

[@dorianford6227]

Update I found the sweet spot for me and you are right high input and low fuzz is the way to go with this pedal. Sounds incredible.

[@crystallineanthology595]

Thanks for putting in the effort/technique/time to work with the spectrum of sounds// clean fuzz thru dirty fuzz. Many happily neglect this dynamic picture of what a circuit is capable of. You happily embrace the dynamics. 🙌🙌

[@thisisworsethanyahoo]

Thanks for explaining how this pedal works. I've had one for a few months and just kind of blindly messing around with it!

[@alexfletcher9915]

Cant beat JFETs! That opener is so good too. Great dynamics!

[@wheresallthezombies]

That intro song was sick! Everything about this video is killer. I have my heart set on the benson fuzz at the moment but this thing is great.

[@tmacdaddy46]

Sounds great. And Mark, like others here have already said, your tune featuring the ~900 fuzz was remarkable !

[@TheInfiniteFret]

Great sounds. Great video.

[@patrickschilcher9386]

Great Review!! Patient with each section and focused on the subtle nuances the pedal. Thanks!

[@bassimprovjams3772]

Always look forward to your videos Mark! Your intros are getting better and better! I would pay to have all these as full tracks and able to listen to them all!

[@cyberprimate]

Nicely passionate video. Funny that I was contemplating the idea of getting a Mini the orher day because if the Bias knob, but this is changing my ideas.

[@1redgate8]

seems to work well with chords (retains some clarity) and single note runs. Got one on order...

[@ebowdan3138]

Man... Great video, that pedal sounds huge. 🔥🔥🔥

[@markjohnstonofficial]

A truly dynamic fuzz really is the best thing.

[@bradruhfel4883]

I love this one, but I like the unpleasant surprise even more.

[@drewroze4168]

It’s here! 👌🏽 Big smiles for this content. …. The first hits. Already. 🤘🏼🥴🤤😭 haha

[@Michael_Is_Avg]

This thing sounds so damn great. Do we know if it's buffer sensitive?

[@locomusikbox2130]

Hey Mark, i liked that video. Would you say you could run EUNA into it without a problem will it take it or will it have the impedance problem older fuzzes have with buffers/line drivers?

[@nicholasrella6904]

I love fairfield

[@theoutlawdekepatton]

Great intro. You got a little bit of Biffy going on.

[@Matthew-px9nu]

Do you think it works with an already driven amp like orange rockerverb? I use BAT pharaoh

[@heyheymymind1939]

Is this an alternative to mini?

[@personalfreedom2700]

Sounds awesome! Was the fairfield put first to see the guitar? before the tuners buffer?

[@markjohnstonofficial]

Nope. A few pedals deep

[@RajivSamaroo]

Is it just me or was he repeatedly teasing us with a backstreet boys riff

[@markjohnstonofficial]

Did the Backstreet Boys have riffs?
