DESCRIPTION:
Some people love fuzz pedals, some pedal don't like them at all. Some love them through dirty amps, some prefer fuzz faces, big muff pi's, tonebenders, (etc) through a clean amp.

Me personally? I prefer them through dirty amps generally. I love the raw gnarly fuzz tone and "feel" when it's running right into a cranked tube amp, be it a plexi-style, bassman style, or even blackface style amps. Personally, I'm not a fan of them through "Vox" style circuits generally.

That tone can be hard to get if you are playing at home, a club, church, or most gigs where you simply can't turn your amp up that loud; this is why I created the Velvet Fuzz, but that's not what this video is about.

I wanted to show you the differences between running a fuzzface pedal or a Big Muff Pi Fuzz pedal, and show them into a dirty amp and a clean amp. Comment below which one YOU like best. Also, comment what your favorite fuzz is - I'd love to your hear thoughts on it!

Equipment used is a Dunlop germanium fuzz face, An Electro Harmonix / Sovtek Russian Big Muff Pi, a Whitfill Stratocaster, and a Deluxe Reverb (reissue). Speaker is a WGS Veteran 30 which is similar to a Celestion Vintage 30, and mic'd with a MXL ribbon mic and a Shure SM57.
