Desert Island Fuzz

I own all the mini fuzz faces from Dunlop and an MXR 108 fuzz. This pedal can do all of them by just adjusting the Variac and tone control. Works so well with any guitar I throw at it. Strats are especially nice. Amazing clean volume roll off tone and excellent fluid lead tone ala EJ with the volume pot all the way up. This pedal is also on JF's board from RHCP. I tend to like maxing… read more the Variac out, maxing tone, output around 8 o'clock, and gain around noon. My fuzz search has ended.

I'd see this thing pop up from time to time but I'd never seen any demos or anything, I only picked it up because I knew what a variac does (Van Halen used to use one before attenuators were a thing) and thought it would be interesting. But this thing could use more hype! The character of the fuzz is kinda like a JHS crayon or other desk-pre type mixed with fuzzface but honestly… read more I prefer it for it's bang up job as a heavy pushing boost. It makes a great signal driver. It could be your Swiss Army Knife of the chain for gain stacking or beefing up any anemic part of the signal path. And it gets loud!

I have a dozen fuzz pedals, all good ones, but this will replace all of them. I can get more great sounds than I can use out of this pedal. Fabulous!

This pedal marks the first real design advance in fuzz since it was invented. The Variac function lets you augment the voltage applied to the effect circuit - this provides an entirely new harmonic to the fuzz. Don't let the small & simple description deceive you, this feature and sound is BIG!

I"m a fan of MXR pedals. I use the Carbon Copy, the EQ, and the 78 Distortion all the time. This just caught my eye, and had to try it. It"s amazingly versatile! You can get anything from slight overdrive out of it, all the way to full on doom fuzz. The Variac knob really sets this apart from other pedals. It"ll take it from a fizzy type tone down to chainsaw grind. If you want… read more something versatile to cover a wide range, this is it!
