What are you waiting for?! Click here as we begin with a reissue of one of the archetypes...

A disappointingly vanilla bunch. Obvious high points for me were the Gary Hurst Tonebender's "light fuzz", and the "heavy fuzz" of both the Roger Mayer Voodoo Axe and the good old reliable Big Muff. Interesting to hear how extremely well the BOSS modelling Fuzz compared to the ridiculously over-priced Dunlop/MXR BC108 fuzzes - more power to you, BOSS!
