We explore the bite, grit and rasp of 10 ferocious fuzzes!
Welcome to the show. Every now and again Dan and I like to check out a bunch of new-ish guitar fuzz pedals. Now we understand that fuzz isn’t for everyone. The gritty, raspy nature of the sound can feel like a desecration of the instrument we know and love.
For many others however, the savage sonic assault of a well-aimed square-wave is just about as rock’n’roll as it gets: a spitting, belching, slamming wall of noise.
Wherever you stand on the subject, behold these 10 effectors designed to verily knock you right over again!
Enjoy the episode!
