«  Fuzz Fuzz in »

Analogman designed the original Fuzz pedal based on the Astrotone 1970s. A study analog circuit components selected on the flap, an original case with rounded and very solid paint. Analogman proposed a time black boxes with gold lettering. This is the model I have. Fuzz works on 9 volt battery or from a 9v adapter. Nothing complicated, a button to gain another for volume, a little to the tone. The sounds are rich, I would say slightly compressed tone that really affects the sound. It has especially compared to other pedals, is that it does not saturate at the point of no longer distinguish the notes, as they may have on Benrod. So a warmer less fat saturation, and with a sharp attack.

UTILIZATION

A simple and effective use, it comes in a small canvas bag like all the pedals Analogman, and sometimes a gift as a keychain or something foam to put his beer can. The manual is in English, but very simple, no need to complicate the head. Obviously the Fuzz is used on specific songs, rhythmic or devastating solos.

SOUND QUALITY

It depends on the guitar and microphones, of course, but the sound is at the rendezvous. Well, I must say that Mike, the Analogman worked on this model for several months. We must also say that small business is not passed to the industrial stage, so there may be several months waiting for some models in the range. Be patient, but patience pays. Behind the Fuzz is clearly recognizable guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had three years, nothing to say. Efficient and always ready to use. I have several other models, including a Sun Face Fuzz, a Benrod, and the sound is always different. So give it a try based on what is expected or not.
What I like is the craft side, and therefore the singular side of the pedal. For the price, this is equivalent to a good pedal shop, but sometimes add customs fees which currently are salted. (The fee is calculated on the total amount, including shipping, so it is necessary to add 40 to 50 euros.) Hence the interest to find one in France.
