Description

Introducing the Seymour Duncan Fooz, a one-of-a-kind analog fuzz synthesizer that brings the spirit of synth creativity right to your guitar. If you're looking to generate authentic synth sounds with your guitar, look no further. The Fooz is not just a guitar pedal, it's a tactile and interactive experience that combines the unique elements of an analog synth into one versatile box.

At the heart of the Fooz is a heavily saturated square-wave fuzz, transforming your guitar into an 'oscillator', ready to be shaped and sculpted. The Filter, which can be set to a classic Low Pass Filter or a Wah-like Band Pass Filter, adds another layer of customization. A tweakable LFO and an Envelope follower provide the modulation, controlling the overall volume and Filter Frequency. The Fooz also offers interconnectivity between blocks, allowing it to be used not only to replicate synth sounds but also as a standalone fuzz, tremolo, auto-wah, or a rhythmic filter.

The Fooz also accommodates an external expression pedal (sold separately), enabling further control over most of the surface controls. Inspired by iconic guitar tones and synth flexibility, the Seymour Duncan Fooz is a supercali-fuzzalicious-wahly-synthadocious addition to your guitar rig.

Key Features:

  • Tap Tempo
  • Powerful LFO control
  • Assignable LFO to Volume or Filter
  • Assignable expression input
  • Assignable Envelope Follower
  • Square Wave Fuzz generator
  • Warm, Analog (synth style) filter
