Features
The Kitsch Fuzz offers a simple yet highly effective set of controls to help you shape your sound exactly how you want. The Volume knob allows you to control the overall output, making sure your fuzz sits perfectly in the mix. The Fuzz control lets you dial in everything from subtle crunch to wall-of-sound fuzz saturation. Sculpt your midrange and high-end presence with the Tone and High controls, which give you all the flexibility you need to craft a fuzz tone that’s uniquely yours.
For more advanced tone shaping, the Kitsch Fuzz is equipped with a Headroom Toggle Switch that adjusts the dynamic response of the pedal, giving you more room to breathe or tighter, compressed fuzz depending on your needs. The Clipping Switch is where things really get interesting—offering three distinct clipping modes: Si (Silicon), Si + Ge (Silicon + Germanium), and Ge (Germanium). These clipping options let you choose between aggressive, modern fuzz or warmer, vintage-inspired tones, making the Kitsch Fuzz incredibly versatile for any playing style.
