The Guitar Jesse Davey Fuzz by King Tone is a meticulously designed pedal that offers a range of features and functionalities. The pedal utilizes two vintage Germanium transistors and includes Volume, Fuzz, and Bias controls. The "BIAS" control allows for adjustment to accommodate temperature changes and dial in different tones by over or under biasing the pedal. The pedal features a 3-way toggle switch (Fat/Full, Zonk, and Vintage) to tune the response and tone, offering classic warm fuzz and gritty, mid-range classic fuzz tones. Additionally, it includes internal DIP switches for DC power filtering and Vintage/Boost settings, as well as a Bias Light Indicator to ensure correct biasing for the current temperature.
The design of the pedal is not only aesthetically pleasing but also solidly constructed, with 100% hand-wiring on a custom PCB. The pedal is housed in a small enclosure and is built to last a lifetime. It runs on a standard 9-volt battery or 9V DC jack and is equipped with a long battery life even when left plugged in. The pedal is designed for the shortest signal path, even in bypass, and offers a beautiful inside and out PCB design.
The Germanium version of the pedal provides a warm, almost overdrive-like fuzz tone that cleans up well to a bright, glassy clean tone. It is sensitive to high temperatures, and the BIAS Indicator light indicates three bias settings: Under-Biased, Center-Biased, and Over-Biased, each offering unique tones. The pedal also includes three LEDs to clearly show when the pedal is active.
Overall, the Guitar Jesse Davey Fuzz by King Tone offers classic fuzz tones with additional low end and clarity often lost in modern fuzz pedals, making it a versatile and valuable addition to any guitarist's setup.
