The Haunted Labs Frostbite Fuzz is an analog silicon fuzz pedal, a type of fuzz built around silicon transistors rather than the germanium kind. Delicious Audio's Paolo De Gregorio describes its silicon circuit as voiced to provide extended low-end impact and ultra-gnarly mid-high presence, and says its analog design lets players go from icy cleans to thick, classic fuzz tones1.
Controls
The tone is set with three controls1:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Fuzz | Sets the fuzz amount, with a sweep described as grandiose and punishing1 |
| Level | Sets the output level1 |
| Tone | Shapes the tone1 |
"The pedal's unique silicon circuit is voiced to provide extended low-end impact and ultra-gnarly mid-high presence."
Where it sits in Haunted Labs' range
The Frostbite Fuzz is one of several fuzzes Haunted Labs has released. The maker's other fuzz pedals include the Paranormal Fuzz V2, a silicon fuzz with three controls, the relic-style Scorched Earth silicon fuzz, and the Carolina Reaper, a dual overdrive and fuzz pedal built with Cusack Music. Players comparing silicon fuzzes across the range will find the Frostbite distinguished by its low-end emphasis and aggressive mid-high presence as described by the maker's press coverage1.
