Hailing from Japan, Animals Pedals boast some of the quirkiest effects in the business! Featuring custom illustrated graphics and some truly memorable product names, the Animals Pedals range has something for everyone. Better still, Animals Pedals are solidly built using quality components, all the while remaining at a price point that is accessible to the average musician.

The Animals Pedals Rust Rod Fuzz is inspired by the classic “Ram’s Head” iteration of the Big Muff pedal, produced in the early 1970s. With its huge, powerful tone, tight mid-range and sharp, aggressive edges, the Rust Rod Fuzz has a dynamic response with plenty of old-school charm!

With controls for Volume, Tone and Sustain, it is easy to dial in a great sounding fuzz for both rhythm and lead playing. The Tone control is versatile and powerful, allowing you to sculpt your sound to your liking. By diming the Sustain knob, you’ll be greeted with a thick, endless sustain that’ll fatten up your leads! With true-bypass switching, you can rest easy in the knowledge that your dry signal will not be affected when the pedal is bypassed! 

Controls

  • Volume: Adjusts the volume.
  • Tone: Controls the tone centred on high frequencies components.
  • Sustain: Adjusts the strength and sustain length of the fuzz's distortion.

Fuzz

A fuzz pedal is one of the earliest and most aggressive forms of distortion, turning your clean guitar signal into a thick, saturated wall of sound. It works by clipping the waveform almost flat, creating a compressed, gritty tone full of harmonic overtones. The result is raw, unruly, and unmistakable — from the sputtering breakup of vintage germanium circuits to the searing sustain of modern silicon designs. Fuzz pedals react strongly to your guitar’s volume and pickup choice, making them dynamic tools for expressive players.

Whether you’re chasing the classic tones of Hendrix and the Smashing Pumpkins or exploring heavy, experimental textures, fuzz remains a favourite for its personality and unpredictability. It can sound smooth and sustaining, or wild and velcro-like, depending on how it’s set up. A good fuzz pedal cuts through the mix while adding thickness and attitude, turning any riff or lead line into something bold and unmistakably alive.
