FUZZ- WEIRD NOISE PEDALS Fuzz It ...a one Knobby!

 WEIRD NOISE PEDALS FUZZ IT 
$150.00 USD
A good ol' one knob Fuzz. It uses a silicon transistor that is biased for a bit of spit and sputter and a Russian made NOS germanium transistor for a classic fat warm sound. A switch gives you the choice. The pedal is heavy on the bass and seem to be aimed at the Doom Metal guy and other Metal genres that also use similar sounds.
Weird Noise is a new kid with 2 Fuzz pedals and this is the one with a video. A lame demo video. The info on the pedal is as basic as it comes. 
CONCLUSION
It sounds good but there are many others that cover very similar ground. Even when the single knob is a volume knob I often find that the volume and tone of the pedal can shift by increasing it. This causes a lot of headache if you use other pedals since you need to 
match the volumes of your pedals live to use them as a group. 
On some Fuzz pedals like this the gain is not linear and can max out any time after as little as a third of the way through it's travel. In short many of these pedals turn out to be toys for amateurs not a pedal you can put on a board and use in a band. Until we get a real video review there is too much we don't know so hold off until we know more.

  1. I’m know you didn’t play this pedal but did you even read about it before you “reviewed” it? What a joke!
