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.
