This Is Why You Hate Fuzz | Gear Corner



Published
#guitarpedals #fuzzpedals
It took me forever to figure out why other people sound better than I do when using fuzz pedals. I hear the same thing over and over again from others too so I want to share my thoughts. If I can help a few guitar players with this video to understand and enjoy playing fuzz more, I'm a happy man.
Enjoy Gear Corner!

** Why the "Includes paid promotion" message? **
According to german laws everyone has to mark their videos as advertisements as soon as there's a single "subject relevant" product, tag or link in it. Even if you didn't get paid for making that video. Sounds confusing and it really doesn't help the viewer to see which is a paid review and which isn't.
--- The line of truth: Is this actually a paid review? I received some of the pedals from the makers to test them and use them in the studio. Technically that makes this a paid promotion. (I update this line for every video).
