Hard to fuzz?
Fuzz pedals at a glance
The fuzz pedal was not only one of the first floor effects for electric guitar and electric bass, but also the origin of all subsequent distortion pedals. The first fuzz effect, the Maestro Fuzz-Tone FZ-1, was released in 1962 and perhaps finds its most prominent use on the recording of (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones.
From Jimi Hendrix through David Gilmour to Jack White, the typical thick, creamy distortion of a fuzz pedal has since been an integral part of rock & pop music. In the 1990s, Stoner Rock developed as a genre heavily influenced by Black Sabbath, in which a wall of deep, fuzz-distorted guitars is genre-defining.
