Jan 9, 2021 · The Fuzz Face sound relies on the circuit's low input impedance heavily loading down the guitar pickups - sticking a buffer in between removes that loading, which is why the sound changes so drastically. But the FF's output section is more traditional - it takes the output signal straight from the volume pot, like many other designs. This means ...

Jul 1, 2020 · So, I have a battered Fuzz Face coming to me in the mail at the moment and it will most likely be sent of to Analogman for internal and electrical love. I'm on the edge between a few color choices and wondering which you guys would like to see? I already have a regular red FF, a grey FF and one painted like Jimi's Monterey strat.

Dec 13, 2012 · Well, if you're using a fuzz face style circuit, and you want the fuzz to load the guitar when the wah is off, both to limit the overvoltage that causes clipping in the first transistor when you drive the fuzz with a low impedance and to preserve the clean-up-with-the-guitar-volume thing, then, yes you'll want to have the wah be true bypass ...

May 22, 2017 · That being said, the Fuzz Face and Triangle, I feel, are the weakest on there... Here's my general feelings on each of the models (I'm copy-pasting this from a block-by-block review I'm working on): Arbitrator Fuzz - Doesn't really sound like my preferred Fuzz Faces (Analog.Man germanium, FoxRox Hybrid), but is usable as a very "square-wavey ...

Jun 26, 2023 · Purple Stardust > WC Your Face > tuner > Unit 76 > Dicibelics Golden Horse (klone) The Decibelics is a buffered pedal, you don’t necessarily want to place it before the fuzz face. * Unit 76 is also a buffered pedal, so it shouldn’t be placed before fuzz face, even stomped off

Jul 3, 2024 · Hey guys Just got a new K pedals fuzz face. Was super excited, it’s all hand wired, and has a switch between germanium and silicon. Came in, plugged it in, just the fuzz I the chain to get started, put isolated power into it (I know fuzzes like batteries but it …

Feb 10, 2012 · The first fuzz pedal I owned was a Tone Bender clone. For years it was my go-to fuzz sound. Then I started messing around with Fuzz Face clones, both germanium and silicon. I ended up with a germanium FF clone (Fulltone '69).

Jan 12, 2024 · So might be a tall order finding someone who has played or owned all 3 of those. I have experience with exactly 0 of them, haha. But I do have a BART Sun Face and a BC183 fuzz face "Majik Boy" from Jimmy C. Based on those two pedals, the Ge BART cleans up a little more clean and has a more scooped sound to it. Really nice, very big and fat low end.

Aug 18, 2021 · I use a Tubemeister 18, fuzz on clean channel. OD's, Distortion and Muff get stacked, other fuzz pedals not so much. I use my Lovepedal GGSS, a Tube Driver, and a Hot Cake to stack into the dirty channel (set to 70's Aerosmith tonez). I have used the GGSS and a TC Jauernig Luxury Drive to boost a muff and a fuzz face, but that's about it.

Dec 21, 2012 · Try following it with a BadgerPlex Pre or a ClinchFX EP-PRE. The FET preamp of a Echo-Plex is seemingly made for a made for a Fuzz Face. For a real experience stick a Rangemaster between the two. An EQ pedal last in line can work wonders too. Add all of that together and that's my chain (followed by a volume pedal and delay).
