420 FUZZ is back and here to stay with three mods that make this fuzz stand out from the crowd and become a staple on your board.
Just like the first 420 total units made, this original fuzz boasts an EL5420csz quad op-amp that creates two different fuzz circuits that you can blend together to make one pretty blazed hybrid fuzz. Yes, we picked this op-amp because it has “420” in its name.
Fuzz 1 provides a highly sustaining fuzz and distortion with a tone stack that growls heavily in the lows and lower mids.
Fuzz 2 blows out a plume of slightly mid-scooped heavy gated fuzz capable of grinding up your tone from thick nugs to slick chugs.
Both sides are gated; one more so than the other. Perfect for chugs, slugs, and fuzzy bugs. This gated fuzz provides sharp cuts in sustain to give you no string noise and feedback in between palm mutes and single notes. Use the gate to YOUR advantage and sound different than everyone else with a fuzz.
