Unlock a world of sonic exploration with the Ross Fuzz, a fuzz pedal that pays homage to the transistorized distortion of Bud Ross' iconic Kustom amplifiers. This pedal stands out in the fuzz landscape with its unique circuit design that veers away from the typical Fuzz Face or Big Muff configurations. The Ross Fuzz is your gateway to a tone that marries vintage warmth with modern clarity, providing a dynamic range of sounds from smooth, subtle distortion to aggressive, treble-tinged leads.

Switch effortlessly between Vintage and Modern modes using the side-mounted toggle switch. The Vintage mode offers a tonal tribute to the classic Kustom amp sound, beloved by artists like John Fogerty and The Jackson 5. With a smooth distortion that transforms into a biting treble on higher settings, this mode is perfect for those looking to capture that retro vibe. Meanwhile, the Modern mode enhances clarity and articulation, making it ideal for darker rigs or humbucker-equipped guitars.

Designed by JHS in collaboration with Bud Ross' family, the Ross Fuzz is housed in a vintage-correct slanted enclosure with recessed control knobs, ensuring both aesthetic charm and functional durability. A soft-touch bypass and reduced noise floor enhance its usability, making it a versatile addition to any pedalboard.
