Most fuzzes have some sort of humorous or clever name. Boss calls this one 'Fuzz'. Plain and simple. I can dig it. Unlike the FZ-2 and FZ-3, the FZ-5 uses COSM digital modeling technology to achieve its tones. It has three modes: mode 'F' emulates the Dallas Arbiter Fuzzface, mode 'M' emulates the Maestro FZ-1A, and mode 'O' emulates the Roger Mayer Octavia. Being a purist, it's hard to imagine getting a good fuzz sound from a digital pedal. To be totally honest, the only mode I really enjoyed was the Fuzzface mode. It actually sounded pretty good. Very 'Big Muff' like, which is good! The other two modes never seemed to really gel with my playing. I actually felt like I was using some sort of modeling device. The 'M' mode is a very narrow and high frequency type of fuzz. The low end sort of disappears, and you are left with this velcro-ish 8-bit tone. If you are going for that type of sound, it works ok. But I would pick up a Fuzz Factory by Z-Vex if you want that sound done right. The final 'O' mode was my least favorite. I actually thought that there was something wrong with my pedal when I tried it initially. Just very chaotic and it felt like the pedal had a hard time of tracking my playing. Very strange. Overall, the FZ-5 is a decent fuzz pedal. I think the 'F' mode is worth the price of admission, with you getting a couple crazy odd fuzz tones thrown in. I'm very excited to try the FZ-2 and FZ-3. Coming soon hopefully! Thanks to Bossarea.com for the info! -Cameron Johnson Music by Atma Weapon atmaweaponnc.bandcamp.com facebook.com/atmaweaponnc
