The Boss FZ-5 Fuzz Effects Pedal is a modern fuzz designed for the guitarists of today but delivers the purely retro fuzz soundscapes of yesteryear. Inspired by three famous fuzz pedals from the 60s the FZ-5 recreates each classic effect with its state-of-the-art COSM technology providing the vintage warmth that made up so much of their character. The three selectable modes correlate to each legendary fuzz: F for a certain face-shaped fuzz M for the FZ-1 Maestro and O for Hendrixs favourite the Octavia. If that wasnt enough the Boss Fuzz Pedal also includes a boost control allowing you to dial up the aggression for fuzzed out madness. With its roadworthy metal construction making it ideal for touring musicians the Boss FZ-5 Fuzz Effects Pedal is the perfect weapon to give your sound extra helpings of retro fuzz.

Fuzz Pedals

Fuzz pedals push a signal into intentionally non-linear clipping, often with strong sustain, compression and harmonic roughness. Designs range from gated splutter and octave-up textures to broad, woolly or saturated sounds, and they can react strongly to pickup level and guitar volume. Bias, tone, gain, input impedance and clean-up behaviour affect how playable the circuit feels. Some fuzzes prefer to see the guitar directly, while others tolerate buffers and complex boards. Check the power requirements, noise floor and useful volume-control range.
