guitarplayer92 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Would a dunlop fuzz face sound any diffrent through a tube amp than through a solid state?

A String Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Short answer is yes. Tube amps a warmer and richer then SS. Welcome to the forum guitarplayer92! Craig Stringnetwork on Facebook String Network Forum My Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdrs Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Hey guitarplayer 92, and welcome to the Forum A fuzz face, or any distortion pedal for that matter, may sound very different thru different amps. It may sound very different thru two different tube amps. Some tube amps further distort the distortion pedal, which can make things sound "muddled". For that matter, it may help! It all depends on the individual pedal and amp. I've used a Univibe and a Fuzz Face thru a reissue Marshall JCM 800, and it sounded very "Hendrix-ish"....I don't much like my Fuzz Face, and really never use it unless I'm doing the "Hendrix" thing. I literally never use it otherwise. Good Luck! Don "There once was a note, Pure and Easy.

What other amps are you considering? Never a DUH! moment! Well, almost never. OK, OK! Sometimes never! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
