A ferocious vintage-style silicon fuzz with more than a touch of Tone Bender color and attitude.
Peter FC. 23.04.2022
While the FZ-1W isn’t a Tone Bender clone, it speaks with a very similar accent. And with its less cantankerous silicon circuitry and more versatile control set, it dwells in a sweet spot between authentic mid-’60s-ness and more robust and flexible modern fuzz voices. At €250, it also lives in a very competitive neighbourhood where authentic and versatile takes on vintage sounds abound. As with any vintage-voiced fuzz, it’s a good idea to explore how the FZ-1W’s bold tonalities work with your favorite guitar and amp. But if this Boss fits your rig, you can bet you’ll uncover a wealth of fuzz surprises that simpler, more traditional pedals will have a hard time delivering.

Could easily win a Silicon Fuzz shoutout
Stratlife 25.03.2024
This great Fuzz pedal can pretty much do everything from Vintage to Modern fuzzy sounds. Being very controllable as fuzz pedal, it brings such versatility that I would definitely name it as winner in a silicon fuzz shoutout contest. Not to include the fantastic Waza Craft treatment with amazing sonic and build quality
