Fuzz Head Pedal from Keeley

January 10, 2004

New from Keeley Electronics is the Fuzz Head, a blend of Fuzz and Overdrive. The Fuzz Head's circuit and buffered output produces a fuzz that is intended to work with any guitar/amp combination.

Features:

  • NPN Germanium Transistor
  • Additional Gain Stage, a Darlington Pair of high gain silicon transistors for tons of volume output. This is for overdriving tube amps or other overdrive pedals.
  • Buffered output so that it can drive pedals or amps with a high current and low impedance signal.
  • True-Bypass
  • Large Blue LED.
  • Silicon/Germanium Toggle switch, this is a gain Style switch.

The "SI" mode inserts two diodes in the distortion circuit so you can have a modern twist on a vintage sound. It increases the gain and compression a bit for more sustain. This is more of an overdrive mode rather than raw break-up. The "GE" mode is natural and open sounding.

The Fuzz Head also includes an internal drive-range Control. so you can fine-tune from light overdrive tones to a roaring Fuzz.

The Fuzz Head can be powered by batteries or an external 9 Volt DC power supply.

Price: $195. Available starting in February, 2004
