What is the ZVex Fuzz Factory based on?
The Z. Vex Fuzz Factory is a fuzz pedal made by the American inventor and musician Zachary Vex of the Z. Vex Effects company. The Fuzz Factory is based on, yet vastly expands the tonal palette of, classic fuzz-tone designs from the 1960s.
How does Fuzz Factory work?
The Fuzz Factory 7 features a 9-position rotary sub switch that opens the pedal up to an astounding new bottom end as well as thin, reedy fuzzes. This means the pedal can oscillate at much lower registers as well has higher ones. The fuzz works equally well with both guitar and bass signals.
