Revised item description. Show revisions
Before:
Vintage fuzz for today's bassist.

The Jim Dunlop MXR M84 Fuzz Deluxe bass effects pedal is part of the award-winning MXR Bass Innovations line. Dunlop dug up a rare vintage fuzz and modified it for the modern bassist. The resulting stompbox delivers a cutting and bold fuzz tone without degrading the punch and clarity of your original signal.

With separate Dry and Wet level controls, the Bass Fuzz Deluxe sounds like you're running two different amps. Blend to taste, from subtle hairiness to full on raging fuzz, with Fuzz and Tone controls affecting only the Wet signal. The Bass Fuzz Deluxe features true hardwire bypass.

Before:
Huge sound in a small box from the minds at ZVex

The Fuzzolo is a silicon fuzz with a rich subby ripping texture and aggressive midrange, with plenty of volume on tap. Because of the way it preserves the bottom end of your signal, it works great on both guitar and bass. It has two knobs, one controlling Volume and the other controlling Pulse Width. The pulse width knob adjusts the shape of the waveform, radically changing the harmonic structure from a square wave on the left to narrow pulses on the right. So what you get is a raging beast on one side and a splatty, gated fuzz effect on the other. It comes in a micro sized enclosure, which is great for saving precious real estate on a pedal board.

Before:
Hot fuzz tones at your finger tips!

A great third companion to the regular distortion and overdrive pedals found on most boards. Where those two staples cover familiar sonic territory, fuzz pedals tend to reside in a section all their own. From buzzy breakup to an avalanche of chaos, Fuzz pedals create a specific voice for a specific player. The ModTone Fuzz delivers a unique proprietary voiced tone that can add a hint of buzz to full on fuzz to your signal. Pure and toneful anarchy in a blue sparkle box!

Improved item category.

Revised item description. Show revisions
Before:
Vintage tone with a ramped-up midrange.

The King Fuzz guitar fuzz pedal is inspired by the guitar sounds of Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys). With the aggressive midrange character of a vintage valve amplifier and touch sensitive dynamics, the range of fuzz tones are infinite. We have taken great care to thicken the bass frequencies, unlike some thin and fizzy sounding fuzz pedals, while retaining upper midrange clarity to avoid the typically muffled sound of vintage fuzz designs.

Gain control: This control will increase the amount of distortion produced by the effect. At higher settings you will hear a stronger treble response, which will soften at lower settings. Increase the gain control to bring up the natural compression for a highly sensitive and detailed tone, or back it off to increase the headroom for more dynamic and articulate playing and a mellower sound. Volume control: In addition to controlling the volume level of the effect, this dial will increase the bass response at higher settings, and reduce it at lower settings. There is a powerful volume boost available from the King Fuzz, and it can be used to push your amplifier into breakup. Try a low gain/high volumesetting to yield a larger than life distorted tone. An initial setting of both dials pointed at 11 o'clock is recommended.

Before:
The sought after fuzz from Park Amplifiers reborn and updated with modern features.

EarthQuaker Devices and the newly resurrected Park Amplifiers have joined forces to deliver a reissue of the vintage Park Fuzz Sound! The Park Fuzz Sound is a germanium fuzz from the Tone Bender family that produces a brighter, almost distortion-like tone compared to its Fuzz Face counterpart. The new Park Fuzz Sound remains faithful to the original in topology and tone but adds some additional functionality for the modern player. Earthquaker increased the fuzz range, lowered the noise floor, hand matched all the transistors for optimal performance, internally regulated the power and added a DC power jack to allow for use on all modern 9v power supplies, added an LED, crammed it all into a smaller enclosure and made it readily available for a small fraction of the cost of the nearly impossible to obtain original!

Before:
A redesigned, bass-heavy version of the classic Hoof fuzz.

The Cloven Hoof is an extension of the popular Hoof fuzz, only more¦ cloven. Earthquaker kept the clarity of the Hoof along with the wide range of dirt tones and redesigned everything around it. The Cloven Hoof delivers a grittier, more bass heavy tone with more crunch that can not be achieved with the standard Hoof.

They did away with the germanium transistors and replaced them with 4 specially selected silicon transistors for higher gains, cleaner cleans and improved temperature stability. The fuzz control has four times the range of the regular Hoof, it will go from completely clean to an all out fuzz fury with more grind at the top end of the dial. The tone control has been refined to allow a more even sweep with enough mids to handle all the additional low end. The shift control still boosts or cuts the mids and there is still a TON of output on tap. The Cloven Hoof is the perfect solution for those of you who always wished the Hoof had more. Each Cloven Hoof is made by hand in the majestic mountain top village of Akron, Ohio.

Time-tested tone in a more compact package.

Guitarists of all styles, from Hendrix devotees to garage rockers and stoner-metal fanatics, will dig the familiar late-Sixties/early-Seventies crunch delivered by the MXR M-173 Classic 108 Fuzz. Dunlop has taken the guts of the BC-108 loaded Fuzz Face, placed them in a more pedal board-friendly shape, and added the modern conveniences of a battery door, optional AC operation, and true bypass with LED. The M-173 pedal's Buffer switch eliminates the audible oscillation caused when some wah-wahs are placed in front of a Fuzz Face. The Classic 108 Fuzz Pedal comes in a heavy-duty Phase 100-sized box with a sweet hammer-tone turquoise finish.

Before:
Big Hendrix sound in a mini size.

Over the course of '69-'70, Jimi Hendrix appeared at a few of his most noted live appearances - Live at Woodstock, Live at Berkeley, and Live at the Fillmore East - using a mysterious red Fuzz Face Distortion with white knobs. That fuzz box sounded like a completely different animal from any of the other Fuzz Face pedals in Jimi's arsenal, snarling with a far more aggressive, biting tone.

The pedal itself has been lost to history, but its unmistakably unique tone lives on in the recordings of those three iconic shows, and Hendrix aficionados have tried to cop that sound for years. We are happy to say that their tonal quest can finally come to a glorious end.

Poring tirelessly over all of the different customized circuit designs Jimi used over the years, Dunlop's engineers narrowed down this elusive fuzz tone to a version of the Octavio circuit that didn't have the octave up signal. After making a few tweaks, they nailed it.

Now, you can get the same Fuzz Face tone Jimi used to woo the masses at some of his most famous performances. It comes in a pedal board-friendly Fuzz Face Mini housing, complete with an AC power jack and an on/off status LED.
