Do you struggle to get usable sounds from fuzz pedals? Fear not – we take you through 10 things to try in order to find fun and inspiration from fuzz!
Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
A warm welcome to you, sonic voyagers! This fine day we are minded to ask: is there a guitar effect more divisive than fuzz? That beautiful behemoth onslaught of savage square wave so beloved of noisemongers since the mid-1960s… or is it the wanton wrecking of all that is magnificent and majestic on our sacred six-string?
Whatever your position, we hope this video will offer some ideas with which you can go forth and fuzzify.
Enjoy the episode!
