Fuzz Master General Legacy Reissue
A reissue of EarthQuaker's take on the vintage Ace Tone Fuzz Master octave fuzz, updated with a variable tone control.
About this pedal
Fuzz Master General Legacy Reissue reworks the vintage Ace Tone Fuzz Master FM-2 circuit (a cousin of the Super Fuzz) with a broader-range Fuzz control and a three-way Voice toggle switching between germanium, silicon, and no-diode clipping for very different octave-fuzz characters. A variable Tone control replaces the original’s two-position switch, and in the no-clipping voice it can reach a nearly clean, ring-modulator-like octave-up tone.
