Fuzz - talk to me

[daveybass]

I love Fuzz and want to get a new addition- any suggestions please? I’m in a 60’s beat/garage covers band so you probably get the tonal landscape - fat and creamy is what I was thinking (but never mind my obsession with custard)

 

Thanks gang

Wounded Paw “Attack Goat”

 

or their “Battering Ram” which has a very good drive circuit and the Fuzz

And a blend as well, super handy- seems germanium is the way to go

Walrus Audio Eons?

 

No blend but very versatile.

I have got a Red Muck which is great but was just thinking about another option as well, thank you- any suggestions re:Muff?

If you're after something Muff-flavoured the EHX Green Russian is fantastic - HUGE bottom end and not very expensive.

 

As always with these threads though I would say, please post a song with the kind of distortion you're after, it makes it easier to make suggestions 😁

For me the best muff I’ve found is the blue colander black emperor well worth a look

I like the Valco KGB. I found my tall font Muff got a bit lost in the mix - the Valco does exactly the same sound but allows far more control, including phase, blend, impedance and tone. Plus three voices with varying mids and gate. If you can’t get what you want out of the KGB, it’s probably not a fuzz!

[daveybass]

They all sound great, I think the bass sound on Mean Mr Mustard is probably where I’d like it to be
