No ZVEX pedals?
You guys didn't play my favorite: the Russian Big Muff. It sounds awesome on it's own, and even better with Rhett's Bane, the Tubescreamer.
I like the Wampler Velvet Fuzz-but only to add a bit to a lead tone.
@@JustSomeGuy too soon.
The Behringer SuperFuzz is really more of a Doom-core/Sludge pedal. You play to the fuzz right? Bands & music like Clutch, is where you'll find it used mostly.
Thanks for having me man! It was a blast
Dude so much fun. I say we double down and do a Part 2 that's 80 minutes long. YOLO!
Man I really dig when you talk fuzz, passion man!! I’m in the search, obviously love Hendrix and I can’t stop listening to Doyle Bramhall II.
I'm interested to see if we see Tim playing or talking about fuzz anytime soon....
@@jorgetenamusic Can't go wrong with either. Also love Marc Ford-era Black Crowes. His work on Southern Harmony... ("No Speak No Slave" and "Black Moon Creeping") is absolutely filthy.✌️
Then there's old "Cry Of Love". Audley just straight tore it up.
YOU HAD A BOOGER IN YOUR NOSE THE HOLE TIME 🤦🏻
I never liked fuzz pedals until I reached the stage of playing when I learned how to play with my amp on a higher gain setting and use my volume knob to clean up. After I got used to that method of tone tweaking a fuzz pedal became a totally different effect. With the volume rolled down you get that subtle fuzz warmth with that edge. You can play full chords and the fuzz mostly stays out of the way unless you dig in hard. Then you can roll up for that Hendrix violin tone for the big single notes that bloom. Just like you guys illustrated so well in this video. Another important lesson I learned that also applies with other effects is subtly. Subtle use of chorus, flange and reverb also make them so much more useful.
Truth - you gotta ride those vol knobs constantly. When done well, you get such a vocal quality, especially with singlecoils.
Thanks for that, I can’t wait to experiment after work is finished kicking my ass
I loved the moment Tim went, “Oh my!” Here’s a man who’s been playing on records for 40+ years and is a master of his craft having a sort of revelation about his instrument. It goes to show that no matter how good you are or how much know, there is always more to learn.
Absolutely, I really appreciated that part as well. The big smile on his face was priceless
What a great great video. I enjoyed every single bit. Also, I’m just blown away by how authentic, kind and sweet Tim Pierce is every time I see him, such a warm hearted and empathetic human being.
I was late to the FUZZ party but I love it. I have the TC Electronic Honey Pot Fuzz and I swear it’s worth 3 times the price - you can find them used for almost nothing and they sound fantastic. Highly recommended
Thanks for putting all these pedals in 1 video. Its a Great video to come back to for reference and for anyone New that wants to explore Fuzz !
The use of Rival Sons on the intro riff got my attention, fucking awesome band ……..and Scott Holiday is the fuzzlord 👍👏👏👏🎸
No. J. Mascis is the Fuzzlord.
@@gui-texzan7477 No.
It must have "opened your eyes" like it did for me haha
Yeah. J Mascis is definitely the Fuzzlord Supreme.
This was very educational, especially the use of the volume control. Really like the Boss Fuzz a lot.
Robert, Rhett, and Tim - great work on breaking down fuzz and pedal usage in general…cheerz peace and rock on 🤙
This is the honest bst type of video that I would hope that you would come out with. Similar audience and blunded group that you could ask for in one video. Keep on keeping on fellas, fire content. Expand people's minds man... !
Great Collab video. I really like the budget Super Fuzz, and the Boss fuzz. Cheers from Canada
wow what surprise. I did not did expect to like this video so much. This is an excellent Fuzz tutorial.
Two thumbs up!
Definitely the best tip for fuzz is rolling back the guitar volume. They're so dynamic based on the input volume.
Not all fuzzes though, fuzz faces for sure but definitely not with Muff circuits
@@tompoynton That's true, when you roll down the volume on a Muff, you only get less volume that never cleans up, the same with the Foxx Tone Machine and Fulltone Ultimate Octave.
@@agriff4795
Some of the Civil War and Violet Ram’s Heads will clean up.
I use a Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh, that is based on the Ram’s Head, and it cleans up really nicely.
I only just started rolling my volume back a little to clean up my stock katana Artist lead distortion and it really makes a huge difference. I don't know if it varies more depending on your pickups or electronics but it's a total tone hack despite how obvious it seems
Great video!! Loved seeing Tim checking it. You guys rock!
I used to work at a music store for all the great tips from the musicians you "couldn't learn anywhere else." Now I get to hang with the best guitar players on the planet and listen to them spitball about how they do everything on CZcams. I love living in 2022. Thanks for sharing.
This is the content we crave my guys! The overlap is the reason I watch multiple creators but get with the right guys abs be so inspired! Keep on keeping on my guys!
Glad you dug it Neal we will def be doing this again :)
This was great! I think we need this for more types of pedals!
that was really fun seeing the 3 of you together😎
Thanks it was great to get to hang out with these guys again.
You two guys rock man so cool to see you doing a video together. More please
I have a really old, late 70's, EHX Muff Fuzz. It's not a stomp box but rather a little rectangular box with one knob and an on/off switch that's not designed to be foot operated. It sounds brilliant
Nice Robert! Love the nod to Scott Holiday in your opening playing! I love the boost on the Behringer Super Fuzz. What a bargain that pedal is.
Well, this left me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. Good work guys. I have always had a soft spot for octave fuzzes.
I really like the videos where you're just talking about stuff, not just showing us how to so something on guitar. You seem like a really interesting person and I'd love to see more videos like this.
Rhett showing Tim how to use fuzz is going to make my day almost as much as finding out that Giles Martin is remixing Revolver for re- release this fall! Fantastic!
Ah holy shit, what a cool video!!! One of these for every effect!!!
Seriously cool guys, also, chur Rhett and Tim for joining in!
Also, Tim looked sold in the first 30 seconds of playing with fuzz 🤣
Used fuzz when I was 16. Built my own. Then years of searching for the perfect overdrive and amp sound. You plug the fuzz in and there it is !!!
Fun video! Enjoyed the “off the cuff jump in and test’m out” dialogue
Thanks for the great demo and discussion. I feel all fuzzy!
Dang, you guys have me wanting to start messing around with my nearly unused fuzz pedal now! I really enjoyed watching this and felt like we were all just hanging out jamming.
Thanks David :) get that Fuzz pedal out and riff!
There's a secret fuzz mode on the behringer that you can get by fudging the switch between the two fuzzes
its got some nice fuzz!!
Wish someone would knock off that knock-off, and put in a real Position 1.5 switch, in a metal case. I like my Superfuzz, but hate the in-between thing and the plastic/cheap aesthetic.
@@CentaurusRelax314 that could be your invention and maybe it could sell at like 60 dollars or more?
@@mrmac3971 Boss should just reissue their original, make it a Waza, with that additional switch or mode… and boom goes the dynamite. I’m surprised JHS hasn’t done it, but I expect it might have something to do with their relationship with/respect for Boss that came with their Angry Driver collab.
@@CentaurusRelax314 right! And eventually someone will make an amp that goes to 11🤣 just being goofy lmao
Excellent collaboration! I have not been a fan of fuzz but you have convinced me to try it again!
@Robertbakermusic Hi, okay this sounds cool!
Still my favorite is a Fulltone SoulBender2 Version 2, it not only beats every other Fuzz for Maximum Drive, but it also cleans up gradually, not quickly like a FuzzFace. 2nd favorite is the Keeley FuzzHead, it has more options and the gradual cleanup as well. Great show, I always enjoy these type videos.
The gradual cleanup is absolutely key, for me. That's how I get all my favorite overdrive sounds.
I started loving fuzz pedals about a year ago and i used to hate it before that. I started liking it after i discovered TC Electronic Rusty and Honey Fuzz. Now i own 5 fuzz pedals in total. The thing with fuzz is, it's a dark sound compared to an overdrive and it gets you time to find the right one. Also one more thing that i absolutely don't get with fuzz pedals is that some sound really weird. Sometimes i hear one and i think "there's no way that someone can make music with that sound" 😀
For me, there is something about Jazzmaster pickups that pairs so well with fuzz of any kind. Just amazing tone. Very volume knob and picking dynamics sensitive too 👌
As always you three are the best! thanks for all you guys do-There are some licks you do that I have Vidamied!!!
I love every fuzz I've ever played through. Even the 'bad' sounding ones. I used to have a tape deck that didn't work anymore and would plug my guitar into the mic input and crank the recording level. I even loved that tone. 💯
Many years ago, we were throwing out one of those old school tacky big screen tv's with speakers built into it. Somehow I rigged my guitar up to it and got the nastiest most low fi sounding fuzz like distortion out of it. It was awesome. If you listen to the Mentally Ill's Gacy's Place, it sounded almost exactly like that. If you have Amplitube 5, there's a preset called "garbage champ" which basically nails that tone. It's so close, that I'm convinced the guy who made it must have been a fan of the Mentally Ill.
I used tape deck fuzz for a couple of years when I couldn't afford an amp.
AcDc and Sabbath all night long 😁
Plug into a microwave. Fuzz bliss.
@@MrJohnnyDistortion Too funny 😆
@@MrJohnnyDistortion I'll plug my Les Paul into a toaster oven and see what happens. ( Hopefully I'll get back to you)😎
Amazing collab video! Keep up the awesome content everyone! Rock on
Thanks for this killer video,Robert and Rhett I think this is the best demo of what fuzz can add to your playing.
Amazing. Rhett, you're a tone genius. Thanks fellas!
Having spent too many years as an acoustic-only player, I have recently myself learned that the less is more approach is required when playing electric. It's a slow process unlearning a lifetime of bad playing habits and technique. All the great videos from guys like Rhett, Robert, and so many others who share their knowledge and passion for guitar, are an invaluable resource to me and countless others. Thanks, guys!
Thank you Robert
@@RobertBakerGuitar You're welcome, my fellow Robert! Keep 'em comin', brother!
Just get a Tele and all your acoustic playing will work on it
@@bryanherward4679 lol 😆 but I understand what you mean about Teles in general. Not quite a typical Tele, but my latest purchase (in February) was a 2021 Fender Telecaster Special Edition Custom. Even after a professional setup by my local luthier, it's my least favorite guitar to play of my three electrics. After a setup by the same luthier, my 2021 Epiphone LP Custom Koa stays in tune all day long, the intonation is dead on all the way up the fretboard, and it just plain feels RIGHT to my admittedly amateur hands. I wish I could enjoy playing the Tele more because the Seymour Duncans sound great. Hopefully once I find some more amp & tone combinations that I like for the Tele, it'll help break me out of the rut I'm in with it.
@@robertgransee8849 I get it...the Tele is always my recommendation for acoustic players transitioning to electric....but I don't get on with them either...I might be able to roll a Nashville Tele with contour cuts...but I'm at home on strats...the Les Paul was my first...but got tired of the sound ages ago and just couldn't get it to work as well as a strat in a bigger group
I like the AnalogMan Sun face, it has a blend knob to bring in some of your clean tone.
Thanks for that, guys! It was informative. I was on the side of I didn't think I liked fuzz all that much, it was way down on my list of things to get.
I like the Dreadbox Disorderrrrr. I like the versatility and the sounds it can make. I've been wanting to do synth sounds on my axe, now I can easily! Gonna get me one.
Plus, fuzz in general opens up riffs and makes them BIG!
You guys have done us a service. Tanx! 👍
Rhett should make a dedicated video series on fuzz pedals and on how to use them.
Very good information regarding the fuzz! Play less equals more, I appreciate the insight and tips!
Nice job with the Rival Sons reference at the top of the vid, buddy! That’s a BADASS track
I forgot about that Fender octave fuzz! I meant to try one out and then totally forgot they existed. The initial sales demos sounded great and I love what you guys did with it. Definitely going to have to play with one.
Oh dude...you and Rhett just approach it differently. Like both your videos. Keep on keeping on!
This could not have come at a better time! Literally looking up videos o what pedal to buy!
what an amazing video, thanks!!
I got one of those Behringer super fuzz pedals at a pawn shop for 15 bucks just to get something new to mess around with and was kind of blown away at all that it does. It was a great steal for 15 bucks, lol.
Thanks guys, 👍 learned so much from this. God bless
Love Roger Mayer`s line of fuzz pedals. Very musical pedals!
That tip around the 7:00 mark on playing less with the fuzz is very helpful. I wouldn't have worked out myself why really dirty tones sound bad playing chords and double stops
One of the things I've learned early on my guitar journey is that good "bedroom tone" does not always - almost never - translates to good live band sound. I've been wanting to add a fuzz pedal to my board. I like the sound of it, but I've never used one in a live settings and I feel like it caould be hard to manage in a live setting where you often need to cut through without getting louder than the singer / other instruments.
I believe it was either Josh Scott or one of Pedal Show guys that said that most fuzzes have a lot fewer components than other drive pedals, so as a result the way that all those work together matters a lot more.
I think that applies to fuzzes as a unit as well. A specific fuzz has its own sound, but the guitar you have, the amp, the other pedals. All that affects how it sounds too, more than a lot of other pedals.
I use a mkii type bender & dial it in by diming the level, then working up the attack knob til it hits a sweet spot, so that bit about turning the knobs toward one another was spot-on.
love the little bit of third stone from the sun !
Here I liked the Fender Hammertone Fuzz and the Maestro. Those two sounded like something I want to check out.
Rhett does have a great use of fuzz. I temporarily had a modeler and used his patches. I was blown away. he knows tone so well great vid
Probably one of my favorite episodes on fuzz! Love it!
My buddy has a fuzz factory and the variety of fuzz tones and noises he could get blew my mind
Thanks for the comparison. It's interesting that nobody noted the background gain "60 HZ hiss" on the pedals (humbuckers and single coils).
The rival sons to start of the video was a welcome surprise 😎😎
I have 8 pedals on my board. 3 are fuzz, a muff, a super fuzz and a fuzz face, the boost is a line driver. Can't get enough of the stuff! The boost is after all the fuzz so I can account for any volume loss.
Fuzz in context is great, it can also help to mask a weak hand. But some artists use it too often
Every tone is useful in it's own way, it can make or break a song. I don't really use fuzz much, but it's fun and necessary in certain songs. I especially like it with added octave feature. Gets a cool Hendrix, SRV vibe.
My favorite fuzz was not a pedal. It was a built-ing switch on a Vox Bass from the 60s. I miss that guitar.
My go to fuzz is still my Vick's Audio '73 Rams Head.
I love Tim so so much! He was perfect for this. He's always open minded but doesn't mind admitting he's hunting for particular tastes and colors. So he was just like, "sell me on it!"(the premise of the video) he accepted immediately that Rob and Rhett could find HIS FUZZ rather than fuzz in a general sense.
They both know Tim pretty well. I would argue they picked his fuzz, before he joined them!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
In the 70's I used a fuzz to get a dirty tone when I was playing through larger amps in a smaller gig. Now I can see they can even add nice tone to amps at the edge of distortion. Several of the amps I had back then only had one volume control and no input and master volume controls. Great video!
Great timing for this video. I just ordered the board and bits to try building my first clone pedal. I ordered a Fuzz Face kit, as it seems to be a fairly simple thing for a first build project. I really appreciate the lesson on how to work with a fuzz, and what the guitar controls bring to it. I'll be getting a lot more out of it now.
Now, if I only had a living situation where I could turn anything above 2... I'd love if you could do a video about getting a decent tone at apartment/bedroom/hotel room volume levels. I did pick up, from Rhett, the turn the amp up and the guitar vol down trick. That works pretty well; but if I want to use my vol pot to control the fuzz, it may be a while before I find out what it can really do.
Fuzz tones are what made me want to play more. I’m 61 and grew up on Hendrix and Trower. And don’t forget Billy Gibbons. They all pulled us in to fuzz in the 60s and 70s!
Keep playing guys!
☯️
You guys gave me good ideas/inspiration for tonight.
Fuzz is fantastic. I am particularly fond of the Blackarts Toneworks pedals. I like tone benders, muffs and the Univox Superfuzz too. It's everywhere and one of the great unsung heroes of music.
Watching y’all was an absolute blast! (I’m a newer player). I’ve got to order some new tuners, I think I’m going to throw the behringer fuzz in my cart as well! …or the boss!
I bought my first Octave Fuzz (Augustas) It’s completely bad ass but it totally changes how you play. Like you can’t play chords with major 3rds. :) Only straight forward blues and 1sts and 5ths sound incredible. Awesome vid guys. ✊🏽
Great video & the Behringer super fuzz is incredible but you did put the fender octave fuzz on my radar
It’s fun to experiment with effects and try stuff out, not everything will appeal to you, but it’s fun to try
And there are pedals that really suit one player that won’t work for another.
So if a pedal doesn’t work for me, I don’t write it off for everybody, just isn’t my thing.
Same if I love a pedal, I know it doesn’t work for everyone
So my advice is to keep an open mind & try it out.
(And while there are some cool sounds in this video, they don’t fit what I do, but that’s okay-if we all used the same sounds & pedals it would get boring.)
Cool video.
Man, that Firebird is jus to die for, so beautiful!
It had been YEARS (Okay... Decades!) since I had investigated the FUZZ in my Music. It's BACK!!!! I recently got the Keeley Fuzz Blender. Couldn't be happier.
That guitar volume at 1.5 thing was a little mind-blowing - thanks!
Awesome video. I only have a couple of "fuzz-pedals" in an old zoom g3. Great soloing liquid leads as well. Will buy some good but in the lower price bracket to begin with. This was a real treat. Thanks dudes!
In the mid-70s, as a Teen, I turned a Fuzz and a Distortion pedal up to 4 'o'clock, each. I got the coolest Frigid Pink, Iron Butterfly sound. 😬
I bought the 3MuF-14 by Rude Tech from RJ when he was cleaning out his demo stash. It's a pretty versatile pedal with 3 fuzz versions, a mid-drive and sustain with a trim pot etc. It's made in Nashville. Pretty cool pedal.
Dude that les Paul sounds so good any way you guys change it. That strat really shined when you Rhett had it set to be really chimey tho. I think that boss waza craft one was my favorite.
Thanks! I'd forgotten what it was like to walk into a Guitar Center during the pandemic!
That Firebird in the beginning though… 🔥🔥😍😍
Starting right out with one of my fav bands of all time!
Rhett is the coolest guys on CZcams, and also Tim is a legend. awesome video Robert!
I've never owned a fuzz pedal, but when I noticed my Headrush unit had an Octavia-style effect, I thought why not try it out.
Now I can't resist it. It's instant Hendrix, Trower, Gilmour heaven. Especially with a univibe added to the mix.
Back in the 70s, I played a Maestro “Fuzztain” and a MuTron Phasor. That fuzz sounded enormous and, with the MuTron, it sounded like clouds of doom. The guitar I used was an Ovation Breadwinner, which had active tone controls. Rolling the tone knob back boosted the bass freqs, which made that fuzz sound huge.
I still have a mu-tron phaser. My dad got it when they first came out. I dont use it very often but its fun to plug in and experiment with some trippy stuff when I'm in the mood
I liked what I heard. And I had a couple bucks to spend. So I went to my local guitar store and checked out the fuzzes they had in stock in the range up to $120.
I loved the Hammertone best, so I picked one up. I've played it all night. Next I'm going to take it to a local blues jam and see how it goes. I especially like the clean tones with the guitar at about 2 and the fuzz down low, and as a bonus I can finally get a really nice slide tone with a glass slide! I love how the notes sing.
Thanks for showing all the awesome things you can do with a fuzz!
Keep the music alive! :D
Speaking of Big Wreck the prescription electronics fuzz or the Suhr Rufus would have been cool. Cool video. Thanks.
The 1st. Pedal I bought was 1981 big muff pi. It was a good start! but I purfur tube screamers type distortions! Thanks very interesting!!
Shoegaze actually likes to sometimes use fuzz with big chord extensions, and it sounds really nice
I love that they bother to be standing during the whole demo. Fuzz is definetly very cool!
I recently picked up my first fuzz.. a jhs bender. Game changer pedal.
The Kingmaker is fantastic. It’s ridiculously customizable. One thing a lot of people do t like about fuzz is how much noise they usually make, but the Kingmaker has the best noise gate I’ve ever heard in it.
LOVE fuzz! Folks that hate it are thinking closed minded while perceiving it as wide open and/or in-ur-face. So many great tones were crafted with fuzz. Fuzz requires experimenting and creativity. Some folks are afraid of challenge and don’t know what they’re missing out on
