FUZZSTORTION 

$165.00 USD

A Fuzzstortion also called a Fuzzy-Drive is a high gain OD circuit blended with a Fuzz. The concept is just that. It is not just a thing 

you can do one way. In short one guy did not invent one and all 

others are clones of it.

That said companies like Way Huge have had one for years so it 

like any could be cloned.

The company is from Portland Oregon. They make dirt pedals 

and with prices all under $175.00 USD they are a welcome 

newcomer.

The layout is Volume,Tone & Gain with Range adding more gain. 

A second footswitch adds a boost.

      CONCLUSION__

Well first thing is the pedals old school enclosure is dead cool. The price tells me it is likely an OpAmp hard clipper 

using a blend of softer or harder sounding clipping diodes. 

The tone is very dark and bloated. In my book it is simply 

muddy. It lacks bite and note definition. That 

said I have a few pedals That are too dark 

but I stack on other pedals to fix it.
