New Animals Pedal Rust Rod Fuzz V2 Guitar Effects Pedal

Includes two Hosa metal patch cables and a Hosa 10-foot Pro guitar cable

The magic Big Muff fuzz is a sound loved all over the world and is sometimes expressed as the “Wall of Sound”. This is a sound that is thick, heavy, and harmonically rich – featured in genres like Grunge, Shoegaze, and various heavy genres of music. Along with this heavy sound, lead tones with a delicate and sustain-filled harmonic emphasis are also much loved.

Animals Pedal Rust Rod Fuzz reproduces the tones of the design known as the “Ram’s Head” variant produced in the early 1970s, one of the most popular versions of the classic circuit. As with all our updated Animals Pedal effects, we have moved the footswitch to a front/right orientation, made battery replacement easier, and updated the artwork. The whole sound has been fine-tuned to be more compatible with a wide variety of guitars and amplifiers.

Compared to other models, the RRF has stronger mid-tones and is a bit mellower, especially the lead tones – and if you crank up the TONE knob it will squeal for you. It’s tone that transcends genres and is loved by generations.

“The ‘real thing’ made in 1974 is wonderful. Rust Rod Fuzz probably went beyond that. You won’t need a heavy and big vintage fuzz anymore” – Marc Ahlfs (Skreddy Pedals)

Our RRF (designed by Marc, one of the best fuzz builders in the world) reconstructs the “Ram’s Head” circuit. With a huge and powerful tone, tight midrange, and sharp aggressive edges, it brings a thick fuzz from the mid 1970s with a unique and viscous dynamic response – especially good for heavy riffs and chords. Thick, endless sustain is possible and you can sculpt the tone effectively with the TONE knob.

Controls: VOLUME adjusts the volume. TONE controls the tone centered on high-frequency components. SUSTAIN adjusts the strength and sustain length of the fuzz's distortion. True bypass footswitch, powered by a 9V battery or a standard center-minus DC9V adapter.
