The Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz pedal is a unique effect. It is a totally vintage sounding fuzz pedal with one difference. The 6 position Tweak knob allows for different EQ voicings that will take your fuzz one step beyond. The Tweak knob was designed to bring out all the rich, harmonic yumminess of your guitar or bass. By tweaking the Tweak knob and the Gain knob, multiple resonant fuzz and overdrive tones are possible. Classic Big Muff-check. Modern funky fuzz-check. If you want it, the Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz has it.
With standard settings, the Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz is a classic fuzz box with better definition and transparency. The true bypass switch takes it out of the circuit to keep your tone clean. The Gain knob is extremely interactive with the Tweak knob giving you ultimate control over your tone. Excellent definition and separation that cleans up with your volume knob can be had with the SFX02. From Monster Magnet to Jimi Hendrix, the Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz SFX-02 is the fuzz pedal for the new generation.
The Tweak Fuzz is basically just a silicon Fuzz face with a rotary switch at the input which switches in different valued input caps.
As with all Fuzz Face pedals, you really do need to bias the second transistor properly to get a really good sound out of it. You do this by adjusting the value of the resistor attached to the collector leg of the second transistor until it reads ~4.5volts or so on a multimeter. Sounds more complicated than it is. :)
I scored one of these pedals today and I am very impressed with it. I own several fuzz pedals and this has to be the most versatile. It has a range from 60's Garage/Psych to 70's heavy Rock. Great pedal for the price.
Proguitarshop gear testing demos are the best ones on youtube still! Keep doing it, Andy!
I got this pedal for $49 at Muscians Friend Stupid deal of the day. One of the better deals they offered IMO. Great pedal at 3 times that price. I play it in the 4th position mostly with the gain at about 3:00 and I use my guitars volume to get what I need. very cool pedal that I adore.
for songs like cliffs of dover, he uses multiple low gain units. he uses a BK Butler designed tube driver, running imnto a Maestro echoplex, tinto his '69 plexi with a Y cable to jump the channels.
Nice ballsy tones. Sounds like it cleans up real good, too, with the guitar's volume knob.
Stack Shot Billy!!! that last song is great. the black keys rock
The Girl I Love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair...great opening!
Seems to work best going into a tube amps gain channel with some overdrive rather than a clean channel
I have a volume mod up for this on youtube - just search for tweak fuzz mod since it doesn't allow me to put the link here.
es uno de los mejores fuzz que he oido!!!
That fuzz really is smooth. Stack Shot Billy, also awesome. Great demo, well done.
Black Keys, "Stack Shot Billy"? Now I have to own it!
when he talks about overdrive he is referring to using the added volume output to push his amp beyond its clean headroom, in other words into overdrive. Which would be where a tube amp begins to distort.
I got bad results with this direct into a clean tube amp. I got excellent sound going into a crunchy Marshall and REALLY good results with the Marshall an a buffer-boost pedal set to unity gain before it (vintage DOD FET Preamp pedal).
It's a great fuzz pedal, but I need some type of mod to give it more volume. I have to max the volume when I use it. Otherwise a great pedal, a great pedal with one MAJOR flaw.
This one is much more versitile! A big muff is too static.. Yes it sounds good, but it only sounds one way.. I want the throaty fuzzy bassy sound, but i prefer it a litte bit transparent, and with this baby (tweak fuzz) you can combine your original marshall/orange/vox valve sound, and just bite it with a perfect amount of throaty fuzz.. Also check out the "voodoo lab superfuzz" it's awesome!
@pableision its called "The girl i love she got long black wavy hair"" by zeppelin
I believe the intro is a variation of hendrix "here my train comin'"
Every time he points, you gotta drink.
spanish castle magic - jimi hendrix
Forget my last comment. It turned out my amp just needed new tubes :p forget the volume problem.
I have this pedal and it is very quiet and stuff it is good though
The Girl I love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair
I wish the "tweak" knob was on the Earthquaker Monarch, which would've made it a much more Orange-sounding pedal.
remember eric johnson also uses a custom $40,000 Dumble amp too
I got a question: what's the difference between Overdrive and Fuzz?
I think it's a "heat" matter. Maybe the fuzz is dry, more agressive than the overdrive?
Can anyone help me?
Thx.
you guys love to play zeppelin! who doesnt
@sambone5407
No it's The Girl I Love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair by the one and only LED ZEPPELIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rock on
I love the sound, where in your signal chain would you put this? First?
Am choosing between Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz Pedal SFX-02 and Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi USA can you help me out please
mine kinda does that but after i put the volume at 75 percent its louder than my clean as long as the gain is at 50 or louder. other than that at full vol. and gain it screams on my blues jr. lol
This is the truth.
Needs more pointing
I was looking to buy this one...what do you recommend that's better then this. I'm sure there are many. I was also looking at that orange boss overdrive pedal which sounded better then this one. So let me know if you can. Thanks
@AlexDeMars123 yea!
I can't get mine to sound like the demo through my clean channel. I am using it to goose my V32's gain channel to Santana violinish drive. It's too bright and cheesy in my clean channel.
I have that pedal but mine is really quiet for some reason. Even when I turn it up all the way it is quieter than my clean tone. Has anyone else had this problem?
what do you think between this and a dallas arbiter fuzz face? for a rock/heavier blues tone?
of course it uses transistors
hey would you recommend putting a bass guitar through this?
@nsschmid I KNOW!!
How do you find this pedal compared to the Big Muff?
i need the cheapest place to get this pedal!
Mean fuzz is one
lets talk about fuzz man, when you got the seymour duncan tweak fuzz you dont need a girl anymore
how does it work with a wahwah pedal? :]
Seymore duncan is always so smooth. There is something fishy going on here.
Jimmy Page uses the JMI. But its not cheap.
@Freidlon7 What do you mean "zero gain"? That doesn't makes sense.
Do you get a volume drop when used with other pedals? It sounds like it's got gain.
Not a fan of this particular box at all. Would likely be wonderful as a recording tool, but trying to use it live amounted to a massive failure. No midrange at all, in a band with more than one guitar or in a jam situation you'll utterly disappear. If you have a method to compensate for it, it's a really nice silicon Fuzz Face-y sound. As I said, though, I'll bet this is a great pedal for recording purposes.
honestly it sounds a lot like a distortion pedal
Yeah, he does point alot...If I were to take a drink everytime, well, I'd be drunk quickly...
@tuinstoel77 oh my god.... please stop trying
SABBATH
if u want fuzz just buy a line6 spider and put it on insane channel, hardest fuzz u ever heard
way too much pointing
@tuinstoel77 just no.
Man.. This and all other fuzzes add too mutch low end for my taste.
If you are thinking of buying this item to be part of a pedal board under no circumstances waste your money. It's a great sounding fuzz if you're using it alone with guitar and amp but be warned there is ZERO gain from this pedal - it's a fucking joke.... I wanted a fuzz sound to add to my pedal board I was recommended this and foolishly bought it off the net without trying it but in a live context it is literally unusable. And that's through a Matchless DC30!!
