BluesFuzz Jr

FUZZ
BOOSTER

Description

The BluesFuzz Jr fuzz pedal is based on the BluesFuzz Limited, a sought-after 49 piece model that used a low gain germanium transistor with boost, mid EQ, and Tight attack switch. It shares most of the tone-tweaking features available on its larger counterpart, while eliminating some features most players don't need in order to shrink down the size and weight. Derived from the Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. Since this model uses a low gain germanium transistor, an input boost is included to give thicker fuzz tones. And to help dial in the all-important mid frequencies, there's a Mid control that matches the tone of the original BluesFuzz when set in the middle. The ingenious automatically adjusting bias on the Fuzz controls keeps the sweet spot at hand, and is especially nice for cleaner tones.
