The title says it all, but to go into a bit more detail- I’ve got a fuzz face or 3, too many big muffs, and 1 foxx tone fuzz and none of these are working for my pedalboard layout or tone.
Im doing the dive into tonebenders to 1. Add that flavor to my collection and 2. Hopefully find a cool sound for the heavier parts in my current band.
Im aware there’s mk.1,1.5, and 2 seem to be the most popular. I’m interested in the keeley fuzz bender, the eqd park fuzz, and the solidgoldfx communication breakdown.
What entry into this fuzz type am I not thinking of? What’s your favorite tonebender fuzz
I’m not sure if I’m even qualified to answer this question, as the only Tone Bender I’ve ever used is the Tone Reaper side of the Hoof Reaper pedal. I’d say I find it not overly extreme sounding fuzz.
It has a grainy texture to it, but even at max gain I don’t find it to be very raspy or full on square-wave. It is however a great classic rock sound that’s more gritty and grainy than a typical distortion like a Rat or DS-1, but isn’t really a snarling beast of a fuzz.
