    Running it into a tube vs solid state amp makes *far* less of a difference than running it into a clean amp vs overdriven amp, regardless of whether it’s tube or solid state. It’s all about the stacking of gain stages; for instance if you run a fuzz into an overdrive pedal and then into a clean amp, it will sound as good as running the fuzz straight into a driven amp.

    As I've said before, you've really touched something here that the community has really responded to, and look what just happened with the King Tone Fuzz. I think there is great potential here for an all-time-classic version 2. Personally, I think switchable Si/Ge transistors, input trim, bias control, and tone control are all great potential improvements to really take it to that level.

    I have a super reverb tonemaster and it works great with fuzz, od and other effects. You can get really awesome tones on 1 watt. So great for people like me who live in an apartment, can’t get the sound i want with tube amps without my neighbors calling the police.

    You forgot to say that you need a germanium fuzz to clean up well with the guitar pot.
    Or a not more than 2 silicon transistors fuzz. And no diode clipping off course...
    Stacking an OD after the fuzz is a good idea with a clean amp.

    • @blackie5566
      @blackie5566 Před rokem +2

      I run the fuzz and the TT both in Solid State amps and valve amps. For Solid State amps, the clean channel works best IMHO (I have the Boss Katana 100 and the Orange CR 120). Both are great Solid State amps - and they will provide that glassy sound as well 🙂

    • @JDStone20
      @JDStone20 Před měsícem +1

      I run fuzzes on Solid State and Modeling amps all the time, they work just fine. Just play around a little with the settings until you find the sound/sounds you like.

  • @denniscacho2007
    @denniscacho2007 Před rokem

    If you have a solid state amp you can probably finesse some good fuzz tones by adding a decent overdrive pedal before the amp

  • @13adulte

    By the way, the best trick is to put all knobs at full...and control with guitar volume pot.

  • @darrenc8776
    @darrenc8776 Před rokem

    I always prefer it dirty. 😂
    If you aren't able to turn your valve amp up to get tube distortion run your Fuzz into a gain pedal. I use a Boss DS1 but you get different fuzz tones from different drive pedals you run the fuzz into. Its a great rabbit hole to get into.
    Great video Chris

    Hi Chris, I just got two of your pedals Fuzz and texan twang, can you give tips how to set them in signal chain: 1) Twang into Fuzz or Fuzz into twang 2) Both pedals after or before Wah (Xotic) 3) better to power by batteries or power supply?
    Thank you in advance!

    • @3rdtonefromthesun
      @3rdtonefromthesun Před rokem +1

      I always find you need a really good 'transparent' overdrive pedal pre-amp pedal, OR amp-in-a-box type pedal to make that work well - it's still never quite the same though but definitely can be awesome!

    wow.nice tone and nice playing. I've never heard that expression glassy until the last few years. it's funny the first time I heard it i knew exactly what was meant. I think I heard it from Steve vai first and he was referring to single coils. do humbuckers do the same thing......Dunno Demo's are so much better with good playing. Bravo Mr Pawn. Bye for now.

    A good fuzz pedal, by lowering the volume of the guitar the sound should be clean even if you use a dirty amp?

    I’ve an issue with fuzzes which doesn’t seem to show in this video, which is the difference in volume from the amp when the guitar volume is rolled up or down. If I set the volume in the amp so the guitar is audible when the guitar volume is rolled down, then I get a massive boost in amp volume when I turn the guitar volume up… and then my band yells at me😢. Can someone help me so the volume stays relatively consistent in both cases? I have the Pawn Fuzz, sounds incredible, but loud 😂
