The Fuzz Bender reminds us just how
versatile fuzz can be when supported by an
active EQ circuit and powerful gain staging.
Further experimentation with the level and
fuzz knobs brings out a wide variety of
usable, no-compromise tones which retain
the high-quality character of the pedal
throughout. “You have to get it to explode
and bloom,” says the Fuzz Bender’s creator,
Robert Keeley, of the ideal fuzz sound. That
is exactly what he’s achieved here.
