FORT WORTH FUZZ
A Tribute To Tone
The Fort Worth Fuzz is this Texan’s take on the legendary Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face. From raw, singing sustain to touch-sensitive cleanup, it brings classic fuzz character to your rig. Roll back your guitar’s volume for a cleaner sound, or open it up for saturated fuzz that blooms.
Choose your character: germanium (2N169) delivers a smoother, vintage fuzz, while silicon (N.O.S. Texas Instruments BC108) is brighter and a bit more aggressive.
Simple controls, plenty of expression. V controls volume/output. F is, you guessed it, fuzz: it adjusts the amount of gain and fuzz.
For best results, place the Fort Worth Fuzz first in your signal chain, or early in the chain before any buffers.
