Cascade Pedals and Heyday Music collaboration Heyday Fuzz Boost

The Heyday Fuzz Boost is a fuzz-boost combo pedal built as a collaboration between Cascade Pedals and Heyday Music. It puts two classic circuit designs, a Fuzz Face-style fuzz and a Rangemaster-style boost, into a single enclosure, with an order switch that lets you choose which circuit comes first in the signal chain¹.

What it does

The fuzz side follows the Fuzz Face design, and the boost side is the Cascade Pedals Vintage Boost, a 2n222a silicon boost with treble and full boost settings¹. A bias knob for the fuzz lets you adjust its character, and the order switch determines whether the fuzz or the boost comes first¹.

Pedal of the Day described the combination this way:

The pedal's approach, as the review put it, was to take "two classic circuits and tied them together with modern considerations to serve classic tone in a pedalboard-friendly way"¹. For players weighing a fuzz against other gain options, see Fuzz Pedals, Overdrive Pedals, and Distortion Pedals, or Boost Pedals for the other half of this pairing.
