Death By Fuzz II – Australia

This product is shipped locally from Bairnsdale, Victoria, and it’s exclusively for our Australian customers.

Project overview

The first version of the Death by Fuzz and the second one have only one thing in common: Both are heavily saturated fuzzes that will blow your face off. Besides that, we are talking about 2 totally different circuits. The Death By Fuzz II isn’t a direct update over the original model but rather a complementary model that includes a totally different set of features.

Introduction

The Death by Audio Fuzz war ™  is a monster, but V1 basically turns it on and makes some noise. Because with seven transistors, there was no ‚low gain‘ and no ‚slightly settings, ‘so DBA made a second version and went back to the roots by keeping it closer to the all mighty and well-known Big Muff ™. They added some germanium diodes for aggressive clipping and away more radical tone control with a little bit of a wah feeling to it. In my personal build, I added a momentary footswitch to pads 1 and 2 of the tone control potentiometer for some intro riffs with no treble at all. Even know what it’s based on, this is a pedal you not just add to your collection on the shelf, and I can’t wait to hear you guys riffing with it.
