Holy shit that Electric Wizard-esque riff at the end was brutal!

This demonstration just reminded me how epic the riff to "Satisfaction" is....after hearing it so many times on the radio, you just gloss over it, but the tone is so crazy that it must've blown people completely away when it came out in 1965 :-O
Even Jagger and Richards were blown away, since it was just demo that was suposed to be rerecorded with horns playing the riff. Keith used Maestro FZ-1 as it was marketed, to imitate saxophone, horns, cello and so on. It wasn’t good imitation from modern perspective, but thank god he used it that day. This record kicked fuzz to charts and is our most loved type of sound some 54 years ago. Insane.
I really missed hearing the click of the Maestro fuzz when Keith goes into the riff. Next time could you mike the switch so we can hear the click in all its heavily reverbed glory.?
@@_-_Michael_-_ As the story goes, The Stones were on tour when the song was released, and they didn't know that the fuzz was left in. They thought it was going to be replaced with horns. They were apparently horrified when they heard it on the radio for the first time.
_"...but the tone is so crazy that it must've blown people completely away when it came out in 1965."_
I was there. It did. :-)
Bought my own Maestro FZ-1 later that same month, IIRC... my first ever pedal purchase!
_(Bonus Thoughts: Nowadays, it's probably really hard to believe, but there were hardly any pedals being offered back in those days! My next pedals, bought many, many years later, were a Maestro PS-1A Phase Shifter, then a Ross Stereo Delay and finally a Boss Chorus Ensemble CE-1-all of which which I still own. Sadly, the Maestro fuzz went to my rhythm guitarist a few years later.)_
@@larryh.3173 I hear you man I was a little kid and my cousin Dave took his sister Judy's album and turned me on to it.
Nice to hear Spirit In the Sky at the beginning, that's one of my go-to fuzz riffs and it's so much fun to play
I'm not a fuzz guy. So I only have 3 fuzzes on my board...
That sounds about right ;)
Yep. Me too
I also have 3, and 6 that I keep just in case
Haha. Agreed. I think fuzz needs loud which rules out most of the scenarios I play.
I only have 3 fuzzes, but one of them is a triple fuzz...
Great playing! really capturing those classics
Mister, you also get awesome classic tones, like the vids on fuzz you got covered.
Respect! 😎
that danelectro went sub basement.
Have you tried a tone bender mark one , in to a Plexi?? that's The sound for me on these. lots of energy in that gain.
Holy Sh**, nails Queens of the Stone age.
Still the best demons on CZcams, probably the best there are. It's the inspiration, I want to go and play every time I see one of these videos. Big thumbs up! Absolutely superb.
BEST DEMONS EVERRRRR!
I love the Fuzz Bender. I can’t wait to get one. I own a Dunlop Germanium Fuzz Face, the big red unit and it sounds unbelievable. The sustain is forever. When the volume on the guitar is on 9, it sounds completely different than when the volume is on 10. It’s super versatile. I was also impressed with the Terminal. Love EQD.
The Stooges “1970” nailed with the EQD Terminal. Keep up the good work Andy!
Thank you for doing a demo thats not just boring fucking blues riffs.
That Danelectro escalated quickly. Goes to show you don’t need the “Doominator 3000” pedal with a picture of a weed leaf on it to get brutal.
I enjoyed the Danelectro the most.
Where can I buy the pedal you mentioned? The doom one with all the doom.
@@hickorymccay2994 it's called a EQD Acapulco Gold, all the Doom you could ever want.
“Axis: Bold as Love” sounded great. You were feeling it in your soul. Watched it over several times. You know, Jimi would have been fun to hear playing some Nashville hard-country, he was so good with the double stops and such. He might have gone in that direction one day, or into jazz; who knows? Such a tragic thing, so young. It still haunts me. By-the-bye, the Danelectro sure has its a way about it. Brrr!
If you can make it through this video without putting a Fuzz Bender in your shopping cart your self control is admirable.
Little Sister has to be one Andy’s favorite riffs ever, so many fuzz demos have been blessed with it!
Stooges right into Supergrass? You’re a classy man, Andy! I salute you!
I like Danelectro
I can easily remember being seventeen and telling my instrument retailer that I was after aSteve Vai-type overdrive. Knowing about my budget and the kind of amplifier I was using (which he’d sold me a year-and-a-half earlier), he recommended an Ibanez fuzzbox. Despite a general evasion to Ibanez (having never owned one of their guitars, basses or amps), I took his suggestion. That box was definitely a worthwhile purchase at the time, since it was totally retro, just like the second and last Ibanez stompbox I owned, a kind of new-generation Tube Screamer.
This guy knows his stuff and plays fantastically well.
I’ve been blessed to have obtained an original Boss FZ-2, which has since become one of if not my favorite fuzz pedal. It’s based off the Univox Super Fuzz just like the Eisenhower from Danelectro. The Eisenhower also has the independent bass and treble controls, but lacks the gain boost. If you’re looking for the sound of the FZ-2 or Super Fuzz, the Eisenhower seems like your best option without having to buy an original of either.
The cheapest option is the Behringer Super Fuzz, I just picked it up because I sold my real Super Fuzz 10 years ago and really regretted it. The Behringer is really really amazing for $38.99 CAD.
dazed and confused tone was on point
I like the tone of the Danelectro.
My go-to fuzz is my Way Huge Swollen Pickle because of how easy it is to dial in a sound that works and cuts in a band situation.
I love the tone of my Big Muff Pi and silicon Fuzz Face but they get lost in the mix.
On top of these reviews always being great, does anyone else think Andys guitar playing is legend?!?!?! Thanks Andy!! you rip
Jack White's Big Muff tone on Black Math still gives me goosebumps to this day.
The Fuzz Bender gave me goosebumps. Nailed Satisfaction!
I have to say Andy nailed all of the songs and tones, but now I want to see a Doom/Stoner shootout between all the fuzzes marketed for these genres!
Big Muffuletta is perfect for stoner/doom
Pick a favorite fuzz tone? Just one? Impossible.
I currently only have six fuzz pedals but by far my favourite is… Well maybe not “by far”, however, my current favourite is Keeley’s ‘s Fuzz Bender! Gives everything from Germanium to Op-Amp to Silicon with a twirl of the “Bias” control! And the HUGE fuzz control, as Andy alluded, can give you all sorts of flavours from each of the three “kings of fuzz” mentioned! Super pedal - try it!
Also, I don’t know if Keeley still makes this one but find a “Black Top” fuzz - it has extremely good - GREAT - sustain on its “bold” switch setting (a bit like the E-H Muff Pi original...)
Thank you, Andy. Great demo ... as always. God bless and stay safe.
Roctor
I played my Keeley fuzz bender into my thunderverb 200 head out to a torpedo live then into a pa today. The sound was absolutely perfect. Robert did a seriously good job with that pedal.
Once again Andy shows why he is the king of gear reviews. Great playing and knowledge of playing styles and tones. All good stuff.
Bold As Love was great
I bet my neighbors would love some "No Pick Blues" as well. That sounds absolutely massive. Probably the best way to shake off a roof. 😂
epic. just epic. Nice job Andy, excellent playing, and great dialing in those tones.
That Fuzz Face mini sounds divine. It doesn’t get super heavy but the older I get, the less I care about gain and more about sound quality
Wow: that Danelectro Eisenhower!!! WOW! Did I say WOW yet? WOW!!!
Favorite fuzz tones anyting from early grunge music out of Seattle and anyting by Jimi Hendrix I achieve all those fuzz tones with a way huge swollen pickle and an old school Dyno electric French toast
Enjoyed the dino jr inclusion!
Nice dino jr
Loved the Fuzz bender, but hardly “budget”
Some nice pedals there. Great review .
I'd use the Danelectro & Andy's Electric Wizard Inspired Riff as new way to summon the Devil.
That’s the best recreation of “Little Sister” I’ve ever heard
The Keeley fuzz bender sounds great
WOW!!! I really enjoyed this ;) Incredible playing, incredible tones -Andy is soooooo cool!!!
Reverb dropping out of a charity event because Glenn Frick was also contributing to the charity and reviewed a certain pedal... SUPER classy, Reverb. You've made Music Go Round my first option.
Dammit Andy...you just sold me on the Keeley Fuzz Bender
Out of Touch I’ve got an army green one for sale
Favourite fuzz tone is an old RAT into a cranked Orange amp. But that Danelectro sounds fucking awesome!
RAT isn't a fuzz, though, it's an overdrive - it functions by an op-amp driving a diode-based clipping section into clipping, whereas a fuzz pedal features several cascading transistor-based gain stages, each driving the following stage into further clipping with each stage. A lot of people consider RATs fuzzes, because they can venture into a noisy, hard clipped territory (and I tend to sympathize with people who are more likely to classify the pedal as a "distortion" - a far more vague term - though the circuit design unmistakably follows the same philosophy as a TS, OD, Dist+, etc., so even that designation is objectively wrong - it is indeed a versatile overdrive, but an overdrive, nonetheless), but - and I swear I'm not just trying to be pedantic - there are certain sounds that all fuzzes are capable of achieving, and RATs are incapable of those sounds at any setting.
@@swid_swid_swidI see the pedal pedant has arrived. Stfu my post is correct and you can go and bore someone else.
@@matthogan-jones117 Ha, sorry. I'm not being pedantic, though - this video is about fuzz pedals, and you're commenting about overdrives. . .like if it were a video about phasers and you started talking about a compression pedal without any connection. Do what you will, though. Have fun playin' your ukelele, since words are apparently meaningless! :D
@@matthogan-jones117 also, FWIW, I didn't mean to be a dick, anyway - just talking gear nerdery in the comments section of a video about gear nerdery - assumed you might be interested in hearing more info about your pedal based on the context, didn't mean to offend. :D Apologies!
Matt Hogan-Jones it’s really not
Every fuzz video should start with something similar to “Spirit in the Sky” which you have done. Amazing!
That Danelectro killed so fucking much
I've probably purchased 20 fuzz pedals. The best I've found is the Death by Audio - Fuzz War. Stunning and incredibly versatile.
Really love the Keeley Fuzz Bender
What a great video demo! Thanks Andy!
Zvex Mastotron is my fave. Their subs switch makes it so I don’t lose the bass.
Thought the Eisenhower was a Foxx Tone Machine clone but this certainly sounds more Shin Ei Superfuzz/Boss FZ2 w that dead on Electric Wizard tone.
Andy is really the man, every demo makes me want to go out and buy something
That Eisenhower Fuzz kicks ASS!
Honorable mentions to get various tones: DoD Carcosa & MXR Super Bad Ass Variac fuzzes.
The Carcosa a sleeper. It's so versatile.
I have the variac fuzz. It's got some great sounds. I just wish the voltage adjustment knob was post gain compensated.
Sanford Rogers I have a Carcosa and I agree, it's very versatile. I don't know why it doesn't get more love.
Damn was not expecting the danelectro to sound that good
The moment I saw that capo on the third fret I knew what was going down 🧢
J Mascis liked this
Andy is now an icon.
Woah! I was aware of all of the different pedals you were playing but haven’t heard the Danelectro Fuzz....that was a hell of a sound. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks for the Feel the Pain lesson!
i have the terminal and it's amazing with bass. very synthy. really nails the exit music tone
fuck yeah on playing feel the pain.
Wow. Really cool and versatile fuzz.
this danelectro fuzz is really nice, thanks for introducing
Beeyooteefull!!! Amazing playing and the tones were smack dab on the money. I love all of them and especially the player.
King Andy. Yay!!!
God damn that fuckin QOTSA little sister was spot on. Killer playing and killer tone
supergrass! great andy...
The sixties -70 s What a great time in rock . My teens were rockin!!!
Little help: what makes it sound like "Have you seen her?" by the Chi-Lites?
But aren't all of Andy's riffs inspired by electric wizards?
6:58 I knew what that was before the title came up fucking love it
Just busting out feel the pain ehh.. Andys the best. Is there ANYONE who DOESN'T love him?!? Lol
I finally broke down and bought a Shin-Ei Companion. Expensive, but it sounds right.
Credit to you for playing supergrass son 👍✨
Great vid, thumbs up, but you guys ; you've got to annotate the details with time stamps. The size of reverb = no excuse for this omission. Alot of us use these videos for reference. And to really sell the pedals, they should be listed with songs, and times in the details.
I got a question. How do these fuzz pedals compare to the Pussy Melter from Steel Panther?
Я уважаю этого человека. Хорошие обзоры.
Woah, was NOT expecting Supergrass to make an appearance.
I’d like to get a Mk I style fuzz for some Ronson tones, are there some versions which don’t cost an arm and a leg?
The Fuzz Bender would probably work.
Thank you for Dinosaur Jr. J Mascis IS fuzz.
Pink Drive by Garland Effects out of Houston, TX
mixing it with a Mythos Pedal Golden Fleece or Chupacabra
Jonathan Fant yeah! Golden Fleece and Chupacabra are fantastic!
Love the Queens!
8:05 Fantastic!
Yes Dino!
Nailed those tones. I have a the BOG fuzz face, Ampeg scrambler clone(a pretty accurate one) but with output knob, and Roger Mayer Octavia, and a rat on my board
JHS was expected to be very versatile. Keeley FUZZ is top class. the pleasant surprise was dano fuzz. . I think Jhs is one hell of a choice because of its value for money ratio.
0:12 extreme left = DOD FX-65 Stereo Chorus: one of the best stereo chorus pedals on the planet IMO (I have one) :D
I been wanting the Keeley and danelectro
Love my terminal!
I just noticed Data chillin above the DOD. Make it so Andy....make it so.
I bought the Terminal but it didn't do anything for me so I sold it. And I'm a Fuzz junkie with many different Fuzz pedals. I think I will just have to get an original Shin ei Companion fuzz
I have the Muffuletta, it’s epic. But Andy you are right even w the JHS...sadly no you’re always hunting for more fuzz. More!
#fuzzisallyouneed
#allyouneedisfuzz
#Allthefuzziswhatyouneed
What was the green guitar? I just got the muffuletta and I love it!
It's a Redtail, read the description.
The Sasori by Solidgoldfx never disappoints with a recreation of the Companion Fuzz.
Haha I sold that as well. I've tried so many Shin ei Fuzz clones. I think I just need to get the real deal.
@@chrishepburn1503 I wasn't looking specifically for the Companion fuzz tone, but tried the Sasori and also sold it. Then I got the 76 fuzz, also by Solidgoldfx, and it's amazing. Kinda in the realm of a Super Fuzz/Standard fuzz/Companion fuzz gritty octave tones and much more tweakable
@@greeniz2k7 it's funny because I have the 76 Fuzz and I Iove it as well. Was looking for a Ibanez standard Fuzz/ super Fuzz clone and it works like a charm.
A fantastic review. Got to say I like them all. Ahahahahaha. I've already got the fuzz face, it's great with a gained up Marshall because it's subtle. The rule is the higher the output of the fuzz pedal the cleaner your amp has to be.
Andy is King!
holy wuusshh that tone at the end!!
Fuzz Bender is the best!
Dam dazed and confused sounds literally almost the same as the album
Interesting overtone “chirps” on Dazed and Confused.
