Amptweaker’s TightFuzz Jr is a versatile fuzz pedal with a Tight attack switch and Silicon/Germanium transistor switch for different gain and tone. It has Fuzz, Volume, and Tone controls which automatically adjust bias for cleaner tones. The EQ switch offers three settings: 60’s, 70’s, and the “Now,” which is dialed in for newer fuzz tones. Other features include 9-18VDC operation, true bypass switching, and a thumbscrew—removable bottom with special holes for tie-wrap or screw-in pedalboard attachment styles.

The Black Cat OD-1 or “Freddie Fuzz” is an original design crafted based on the innovative properties of Analog Devices’ dual operational amplifier chip, OP275. It can go from clean to moderately crunchy to full-on saturated distortion. The Black Cat OD-1 responds to your pick attack and cleans up well when you roll back the guitar volume, just like a great Fuzz Face. It has been used by the likes of Lyle Workman, Beck, Steve Lukather, Scott Henderson, Kyle Cook (Matchbox Twenty), and several others.
