Piccolissimo Fuzztotum
The Don Poniz Piccolissimo Fuzztotum is a true gem for any guitarist seeking a dynamic, vintage-inspired fuzz tone. Expertly crafted in the picturesque Costa Brava region of Spain, this pedal is a meticulously designed fusion of two iconic fuzz circuits - the Mk I.V Tone Bender and the Fuzz Face. At the heart of the Piccolissimo Fuzztotum lie carefully selected NOS (New Old Stock) transistors, including the legendary BC108 and BC239 silicon variants, as well as the sought-after Russian military-grade 1T308B germanium option. These premium components imbue the pedal with a rich, harmonically complex fuzz that can seamlessly transition from smooth, creamy sustain to sputtering, gated mayhem. What sets the Piccolissimo Fuzztotum apart is its remarkable touch sensitivity and dynamic response. Guitarists can coax an impressive range of tones simply by adjusting their pick attack and volume knob, allowing for expressive, almost amp-like control over the fuzz character. This makes the pedal a versatile tool, equally at home delivering scorching lead lines as it is thickening up rhythm parts. Renowned for its use by acclaimed guitarist Javier Reyes of the progressive metal group Animals as Leaders, the Piccolissimo Fuzztotum has become a go-to choice for discerning players seeking a truly unique fuzz experience. Whether you're chasing vintage grit or modern sonic mayhem, this handcrafted gem from Don Poniz is sure to inspire your creativity and leave a lasting impression on your tone.
