Vintage Fuzz Tones in a Miniature Stompbox
The Classic 108 Fuzz Mini packs vintage fuzz tones into a pedalboard-friendly MXR mini housing. Plug in and saturate your guitar's tone with a round, dirty crunch reminiscent of a classic Fuzz Face, courtesy of a silicon BC-108 transistor. Dialing in your sound is easy — just crank the Output and Fuzz knobs on the Classic 108 Mini's no-nonsense interface and start jamming. You also get a Buffer switch that eliminates the high-frequency suck and oscillation caused by some wah pedals. The MXR Classic 108 Fuzz Mini features true bypass switching and can be powered by a 9-volt power adapter (sold separately).
No pedalboard is complete without a good fuzz
Fuzz pedals like the Classic 108 Mini can give you some of the same characteristics of distortion, such as long sustain and extra harmonic richness. But a good fuzz effect will sound almost glitchy and sputtery, as if the pedal is chewing on your signal and spitting it out. Running a fuzz into a barely overdriven tube amp and then kicking it on for solos is a time-honored way to whip an audience into a frenzy. You’ve heard countless examples of fuzz pedals, from classic acts like the Yardbirds to modern groups like Queens of the Stone Age. You'll be hard-pressed to find a guitarist here at Sweetwater without a fuzz on their pedalboard.
