(designed by Gary Hurst) Fuzz King
The Hiwatt Fuzz King is a true time capsule, transporting players back to the golden age of British fuzz. Designed by the legendary Gary Hurst, the creator of the iconic Tone Bender and builder of pedals for iconic artists like Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page, the Fuzz King distills the essence of those revered '60s and '70s fuzz tones. Hurst's meticulous attention to detail shines through in every facet of this pedal. The Filter control allows you to sculpt the fuzz from a dark, vintage-inspired low-end thump to a biting, modern high-end snarl. Paired with the Fuzz Sustain and Output Level knobs, you can dial in everything from smooth, singing sustain to aggressive, saturated distortion - perfect for channeling the ferocious tones of classic rock titans. But this pedal isn't just a nostalgic relic; its versatility makes it a vital tool for modern players as well. Whether you're chasing the psychedelic swirl of Jimi Hendrix or the thunderous crunch of Ty Segall, the Fuzz King has the sonic flexibility to seamlessly integrate into any rig. Housed in a rugged zinc-plated enclosure with classic Hiwatt styling, the Fuzz King is built to withstand the rigors of the stage. It's a pedal that pays homage to the greats of the past while offering a fresh, dynamic fuzz voice that will inspire your playing for years to come.
