User Reviews of the Boss Fuzz FZ-5

  • Submitted by Iain David from United Kingdom (144 points) on Dec 28, 2007
  • Decent enough fuzz with enough gain to make it useful for noise purposes. All three modes have their uses although the octave setting is my favourite. This thing is currently sitting in the send/return loop of my Rupture throwing out all manner of fuzz drones and splutters. I can imagine it being pretty useful for guitar noise too.
  • Good Points: - Decent gain. - Plenty of variation in the available sounds. - Solid Boss construction. - Kind of irrelevant but it looks and feels pretty sweet.
  • Bad Points: - Rather expensive for what it does.
  • Price Paid: US$0.00
