Description

The Maestro MFZ-1 Fuzz is a vintage pedal known for its distinctive sound and design. This op-amp based 70s beast throws out much more mighty fuzz than the small parts count would have you believe. It is supposedly favored by Dan Auerbach on early Black Keys' recordings. The pedal is known for its raunchy, full-sounding fuzz and is very open sounding, probably a bit more on the fuzztortion side. It shares similarities with a very strongly overboosted Distortion+ / DOD 250 (but with more bass) or with an op-amp muff (but with more mids). The pedal is very full and rich sounding, not very square-wave-y, and very fat. It is built like a tank, like a cheese-wedge shaped tank, and is fairly easy to repair. The Maestro MFZ-1 Fuzz is designed for easy enclosure mounting and is available as a partial kit or full kit with various options for bypass type and enclosure. The PCB size is 50 x 20mm, and it requires 2 knobs and a 1590B enclosure. The pedal is known for its simple build and great sound, offering a different flavor of fuzz from a nice, simple build. It is also very responsive to pick dynamics and tone controls, allowing for a cool range of sounds despite the simple controls. The Maestro MFZ-1 Fuzz is a vintage pedal with a unique sound and design, making it a sought-after piece for collectors and musicians alike.
