Finished in classic hammertone turquoise, this stompbox delivers the iconic saturation and vintage character that defined generations of rock and blues. Modern MXR enhancements, such as true bypass switching and a dedicated Buffer switch, ensure flawless integration with wah pedals and modern rigs, making it an ideal choice for players seeking authentic fuzz with contemporary reliability and convenience.

This pedal is designed for guitarists who crave the unmistakable voice of a genuine Fuzz Face but need the flexibility and dependability required for today’s pedalboards. Whether you’re after searing leads, velvety sustain, or gritty rhythm textures, the Classic 108 Fuzz gives you precise control and effortless compatibility with your favourite gear.

Vintage Fuzz with Modern Reliability

At the heart of the Classic 108 Fuzz is the storied BC108 silicon transistor circuitry, faithfully reproducing the thick, rich fuzz tones that made the original Fuzz Face a legend. Housed in a compact, rugged enclosure, this pedal preserves all the sonic magic of its predecessor while taking up less space and offering superior durability for life on the road.

Seamless Wah Compatibility

The addition of a Buffer switch is a game-changer for players who love pairing fuzz with wah pedals. Engaging the buffer eliminates unwanted oscillation and restores clarity, resulting in a brighter, more articulate fuzz sound and ensuring your signal stays strong and noise-free, even with complex pedal chains.

Simple, Intuitive Controls

With just two knobs for Volume and Fuzz, the Classic 108 Fuzz makes it easy to dial in anything from subtle grit to full-on sonic mayhem. Start with both controls at noon and explore the broad range of textures, from vintage sputter to saturated sustain, all at your fingertips.

Built for the Pedalboard Generation

True hardwire bypass maintains your pure guitar signal when the effect is disengaged, while standard 9V power options (battery or adapter) and a pedalboard-friendly footprint ensure the Classic 108 Fuzz slots effortlessly into any modern setup. This is vintage tone designed for today’s player.

Fuzz Pedals

Fuzz pedals produce a thick, saturated and often unruly form of distortion with a character all of its own. From smooth vintage sustain to gated, spluttering and synth-like textures, fuzz is one of the most expressive and distinctive effects in guitar history.

Players use fuzz for psychedelic rock, garage, stoner rock, doom, indie, shoegaze and experimental sounds. It can feel more like an instrument than a normal drive pedal, responding strongly to guitar volume, pickup choice and playing dynamics.

Fuzz

Fuzz pedals create thick saturated distortion with a raw and highly expressive character that differs significantly from standard overdrive or distortion pedals. Vintage-inspired fuzz circuits remain hugely influential in psychedelic rock, doom, garage, shoegaze and experimental music.

Different fuzz designs respond very differently to pickups, guitar volume and playing dynamics, allowing players to move between smooth sustain, gated textures and aggressive spluttering tones.
