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 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
Absolutely! True about most things really. It helps if you can hang on to your child like fascination for the things you like. 🎉😊.
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
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
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.
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 RUclips. I love living in 2022. Thanks for sharing.
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 !
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)😎
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
This was very educational, especially the use of the volume control. Really like the Boss Fuzz a lot.
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... !
that was really fun seeing the 3 of you together😎
Thanks it was great to get to hang out with these guys again.
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
@corbCor, the Pharoah is what Rebecca from Larkin Poe was using before switching to her husband’s signature pedal.
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 :)
Robert, Rhett, and Tim - great work on breaking down fuzz and pedal usage in general…cheerz peace and rock on 🤙
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 !!!
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" 😀
Rhett should make a dedicated video series on fuzz pedals and on how to use them.
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!
☯️
Great Collab video. I really like the budget Super Fuzz, and the Boss fuzz. Cheers from Canada
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.
I like the AnalogMan Sun face, it has a blend knob to bring in some of your clean tone.
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!
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
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
My go to fuzz is still my Vick's Audio '73 Rams Head.
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!
love the little bit of third stone from the sun !
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!
wow what surprise. I did not did expect to like this video so much. This is an excellent Fuzz tutorial.
Two thumbs up!
This was great! I think we need this for more types of pedals!
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.
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
I used to have a caitlynbread fuzzrite by Mosrite. It was so rich and smooth sounding and really represented the sounds of the times from my youth in the early 70s. It got lost during my time in the Navy, I use the term lost loosely, more like stolen.
Tim looks exactly like my first father in-law. And he's warm and kind like he was. Tim's a fav.
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 👌
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!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
The rival sons to start of the video was a welcome surprise 😎😎
Oh dude...you and Rhett just approach it differently. Like both your videos. Keep on keeping on!
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 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.
Thanks for the great demo and discussion. I feel all fuzzy!
Thank you for this video.
Not going to lie, i have a serious “man crush” on tim anyway. He is absolutely my favorite guitar player and student of sound.
And having rhett there is like having batman and robin show up to solve a mystery. Rhett is no slouch whatsoever. Having 3 of my favorite players in one video here on yt is a real treat.
Thank you.
My favorite fuzz was not a pedal. It was a built-ing switch on a Vox Bass from the 60s. I miss that guitar.
Paul Trombetta Effects RotoPlex is one of the best fuzzes I've ever played or owned!!!!!
Insane amount of tones in those little boxes!!! (that and they are GORGEOUS in Old Map Mercury finish!!!)
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.
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 recently picked up my first fuzz.. a jhs bender. Game changer pedal.
You two guys rock man so cool to see you doing a video together. More please
Love Roger Mayer`s line of fuzz pedals. Very musical pedals!
Here I liked the Fender Hammertone Fuzz and the Maestro. Those two sounded like something I want to check out.
Speaking of Big Wreck the prescription electronics fuzz or the Suhr Rufus would have been cool. Cool video. Thanks.
Amazing. Rhett, you're a tone genius. Thanks fellas!
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!
Well, this left me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. Good work guys. I have always had a soft spot for octave fuzzes.
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.
As always you three are the best! thanks for all you guys do-There are some licks you do that I have Vidamied!!!
Tim is my favorite. That guys a legend.
I need to see Robert and Rhett have some dueling Firebirds. 😂
Great video!! Loved seeing Tim checking it. You guys rock!
Very good information regarding the fuzz! Play less equals more, I appreciate the insight and tips!
Thanks guys, 👍 learned so much from this. God bless
The Behringer is the bomb, and is the only thing to scratch the itch until Boss gets off their butts and makes a Waza FZ-2 (c'mon Boss!). Matt Pike and Sleep/Electric Wizard in a box.
Yeah I have that one and it's surprisingly good!✌️
Thanks for this killer video,Robert and Rhett I think this is the best demo of what fuzz can add to your playing.
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 🤣
Did not expect to hear a rival sons riff from you, great band!
One of my absolute favorites :)
@@RobertBakerGuitar great video too!
Rival sons indeed!
This could not have come at a better time! Literally looking up videos o what pedal to buy!
Man, that Firebird is jus to die for, so beautiful!
Probably one of my favorite episodes on fuzz! Love it!
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.
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.
I like to think that a fuzz turned up doubles the strings relatively speaking.
A heavy one string fuzz lick or riff has the power of double stops or two string power chords with an overdrive or something cleaner.
2 strings has the power more like 4 strings.
Thinking like that helps me play less busy to keep a fuzz happy and not muddy up with chords that can't be as layered and still sound good.
Nice job with the Rival Sons reference at the top of the vid, buddy! That’s a BADASS track
Thanks! I'd forgotten what it was like to walk into a Guitar Center during the pandemic!
Shoegaze actually likes to sometimes use fuzz with big chord extensions, and it sounds really nice
My buddy has a fuzz factory and the variety of fuzz tones and noises he could get blew my mind
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.
Starting right out with one of my fav bands of all time!
I love that they bother to be standing during the whole demo. Fuzz is definetly very cool!
OK. I’ve never been much of a player to touch the volume and tone controls on my guitar, and I’ve not used fuzz much either as I’ve been a Les Paul straight into a simple low wattage valve amp type of simpleton.
But I’ve just had a revelation with this fuzz stuff, both here and on the JHS channel.
I just tried turning my volume down into fuzz, and it’s sounds amazing. Not that awful spitty gritty sound I’ve always associated with fuzz pedals. And my engineering background helps me make sense of it. Yes, the high end is rolled down when reducing the guitar volume pot but fuzz creates a bunch of harmonics. So when the guitar signal is darker, there’s more room in the high mids and highs for the new, distortion (fuzz) harmonics and there’s less high end in the original guitar signal to create those buzzy, harsh high frequency harmonics. Plus the number and level of harmonics is reduced in general due to lower level. So I’m getting these wonderfully balanced harmonics which are in the normal overdriven amp range, but still with the interesting part of the fuzz character - rather than that sound I expected, with high level harmonics going up to the sky and just marking too much of a mess for my ears. I can’t believe I’ve never experimented with this before!
Fuzz makes a great old fashioned, 'Im going to get a good amp one day, but liked the old crazy horse sound' kinda noise. Perfect for a 'Rust never sleeps' cover band
Fun video! Enjoyed the “off the cuff jump in and test’m out” dialogue
My favorite and only fuzz pedal I own and absolutely love… is my electro harmonix triangle muff. I had a cuvave fuzz pedal before… it was quite harsh
I love my thorpy fallout cloud.
I have a cuvave I was hepped to by 60 cycle. It's sweet but at some point they changed the circuit. And you have remember, it's a 20 dollar pedal.
@@richardclark. yep 60 cycle is the reason I got it and tried it. It works. Just not my cuppa tea. Too bright. I found the triangle muff and it’s warmer. Fuzzier. A little more costly but it’s a forever on my pedal board… and it’s more so like a transparent fuzz. It can go from filthy fizzy. To almost a warm OD just past breakup
Who doesn't love a good triangle muff?
What? We're talking about guitars? Ohhhh....
@@robertgransee8849 I meant the pedal pushing the guitar to the edge 😂 I own a strat and a les Paul. The triangle always gets the job done for fuzz. If I want them crunchy I’m going with my tube screamer
That guitar volume at 1.5 thing was a little mind-blowing - thanks!
Rhett's got that Les Paul slung up to nearly his arm pits lol.
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! 👍
Thanks for the comparison. It's interesting that nobody noted the background gain "60 HZ hiss" on the pedals (humbuckers and single coils).
King Tone Fuzz (Silicon) and Mythos Argo are my faves 🤟🎶
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 have the JHS Bender, use most of any of my dirt pedals. The sound with humbuckers is massive. Also have a home-made Jordan Bosstone (shout-out to General Guitar Gadgets for the kit), nasty, snarly, octaves drifting in and out, great for 1960s psychedelic noise sort of jams.
That firebird is gorgeous 😍
Jordan Boss Tone, circa 1966. Listen to Spirit's Mechanical World for a good idea of the BT.
Fuzz in context is great, it can also help to mask a weak hand. But some artists use it too often
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
Amazing collab video! Keep up the awesome content everyone! Rock on
I used to not like fuzz because I always thought of it as the huge loose static-y fuzz, but I tried a much more tight Hendrix/srv style and I love it.
Enjoyed the video, thanks. I’d like to contribute by pointing out that most fuzz type effects work with the impedance relationship between the guitar and the effect. So, chaining pedals like in the first part of the video alters their response and tone, whether the pedals are buffered or not. 🙋♂️
V. Important
made me search in boxes here. i had some fuzzes somewhere. Found the dino drive and a bigfoot fuzzmaster. and undusted this ssh fuzz/multiunit from 1976 i think. Had so much fun. this volume nearly totally back on the guitar did it.
Thanks :)
