Modular Fuzz/Octave Effects Pedal
Jackson Audio - 'Modular Fuzz'
The sound of rock and righteous indignation worldwide!Packed full of those snarling and surly sounds of rock icons both past and present, Jackson Audio’s ‘Fuzz Modular’ pedal utilises precise recreations of classic fuzz circuits and melds them together in one modular stompbox. This means you can create classic fuzz tones, alongside your own new fuzz sounds which wouldn’t be possible with just the original circuit.
The idea behind creating a modular fuzz pedal came along as the guys at Jackson Audio were trying to decide which style of fuzz would be ‘the most musical fuzz of all time’. The answer? All of them! Each are completely different and offer something genuinely unique sonically.
With Jackson Audio’s ‘FUZZ’, it’s possible to update your fuzz sound completely with interchangeable analogue plug-in modules and transform your device into an entirely new pedal with a simple and affordable plug-in swap out!

3 Band Fully Parametric EQ
never got lost in the mix again!In the 30 years since Brad Jackson began playing guitar, he's always loved fuzz pedals. Having bought countless versions of fuzzes over the years, in his mind these pedals have always had a massive shortcoming - they desperately need more effective tone controls!
That's why Jackson Audio designed the Fuzz with a 3 band, fully parametric EQ. EQ and especially the mids are where the guitar makes its stand. Not enough mids and your guitar is lost in the mix.
Too much highs and your tone is piercing and off-putting. Too much bass and you compete sonically with the bass drum and bass player. With the 3-band Parametric EQ on the Fuzz, you have 9 controls at your disposal to fully sculpt your tone and make sure the riffs you are laying down are NEVER lost in the mix!
Put Some Purple in Your Haze
screaming splatting sonic mayhem...
and everyting in between!A good fuzz and a good octave pedal go hand in hand. Jimi knew it, Stevie knew it and you know it. If you want to put some purple in your haze, you're going to need an octave pedal and the octave circuit in the Fuzz is outstanding! Covering everything from perfectly pure octave up to screaming splatting sonic mayhem, the octave circuit in the Fuzz is the perfect marriage of vintage and modern thanks to its unique octave blend control. The blend control mixes your clean signal with the fuzz/octave signal so you can dial in precisely how much octave effect you want. Guys like Doyle Bramhall II use this to great effect by adding just a little octave to their sound which gives it a little lift.
With the blend control fully counter-clockwise, the octave circuit acts as a boost and is perfect for slamming the front of the fuzz circuit for more gain! Pro Tip! Boost + Fuzz Face = Tone Bender! This boost is also perfect for boosting the front of other pedals or just running as an always-on signal buffer/booster. Fully clockwise, there is no clean blend so your signal is fully fuzzed out with however much fuzz/octave you have dialled in with the Oct control.
Analogue Modular Plug-Ins
optional extrasJackson Audio's modular 'FUZZ' offers magnificent scope for true variation and customisation, allowing you to create and craft some seriously unique killer tones!
MODERN FUZZFrom vintage style fuzz at lower settings to snarling spitting fuzz at higher settings the MODERN FUZZ plug-in does it all and cleans up beautifully when your guitars volume control is lowered. This is the plug-in that the FUZZ ships with.
*The FUZZ ships with this module installed.
MODERN FUZZ DELUXELike the MODERN FUZZ plug-in, the MODERN FUZZ DELUXE plug-in expands the tones available in this plug-in by adding two additional types of clipping. With the jumper set in the DIST (distortion) position, the clipping is smoother and with more headroom.
GOAT HEADBased on the legendary Big Muff Pi Ram's Head, the GOAT HEAD is the sound of Pink Floyd! Insane levels of fuzz and sustain are hallmarks of this circuit, but this plug-in does something that no other Big Muff can do! With the parametric EQ on the FUZZ, you can adjust the EQ so you can bring the mids forward on this circuit!
FUZZ CLASSIC/VINTAGEThe classic Fuzz with the smiley Face! This plug-in has lower gain and a looser/softer feel. This plug-in is perfect for the earlier Jimi era tones.
*The FUZZ ships with this module included as a FREE extra module.
FUZZ PAGE MARK IIThe sound of Led Zeppelin! If you like your fuzz to be completely rude and unruly, this is your fuzz! Full of snarl and spit, the FUZZ PAGE MARK II plug-takes the FUZZ and turns it into a classic rock machine!
FUZZ CLASSIC/MODERNThe classic Fuzz with the smiley Face! This plug-in has high gain and a tighter/crisper feel. This plug-in is perfect for the later Jimi era tones.
