Our good friend, Brett Kingman (formerly known as Burgerman666), demonstrates the Boost Fuzz. Extra thanks to Sadie for her special appearance.
The Boost Fuzz celebrates the sounds of classic germanium fuzz pedals. While known for the sweet sounds of the '60s, germanium transistors have a (deserved) reputation for being temperamental, unreliable and prone to wandering bias whenever the temperature changes. It was not uncommon for finicky pro players (think Hendrix) to own several of the same fuzz pedals so they could be swapped out when they acted up.
