Boss FZ-5 Fuzz Effects Pedal - Secondhand

Full Description

Distinct fuzz tones

Three for the price of one. The Boss FZ-5 Fuzz Effects Pedal is built for the modern player, with state-of-the-art technology and a roadworthy construction to ensure it can survive the life that vintage units may not. Although the FZ-5 is a modern pedal, its fuzz tones are purely retro, taking inspiration from famous fuzz pedals of the 60s and accurately recreating them using Boss’ COSM technology. Players are given access to three distinct fuzz tones, with the addition of a boost control to deliver extra levels of aggression. Selecting the F mode will deliver the fat fuzz tones found on psychedelic music of the late 60s, while the M mode provides a fuzz with a prominent treble boost. The O mode delivers a special, distinctive octave fuzz, delivering the classic fuzz character with an overlaid octave above for added sparkle.
