Boss FZ-1W Fuzz Waza Craft Vintage and Modern Pedal

An embodiment of powerful sound and versatile tonal range, the FZ-1W Fuzz Waza Craft Vintage and Modern Pedal is a testament to Boss's innovative craftsmanship. This high-quality pedal is a unique blend of vintage fuzz and modern tones, meticulously crafted for the discerning guitarist.

The FZ-1W is a tribute to the first distortion pedal, the fuzz, which revolutionized the sound of rock music in the 1960s. This durable pedal is a product of extensive analysis of legendary pedals and the application of Waza craftsmanship, resulting in an all-analog design that captures the essence of classic fuzz in a reliable modern package.

The FZ-1W is not merely a reproduction of a past design. It is Boss's modern interpretation of vintage fuzz, carrying the number "1" in its name as a nod to the classic circuits that shaped the sound of rock guitar and launched the effect pedal industry.

This pedal captures the best elements of vintage fuzz in a modern design. It uses top-quality silicon transistors to create a unique circuit that delivers authentic tone and response while maintaining stable performance in any temperature or operating condition. The FZ-1W offers higher gain, lower noise, deeper tone-shaping control, and more, expanding the sound possibilities over vintage designs.

The Vintage mode of the FZ-1W redefines the classic fuzz voice with more gain and wider expressive range. The sound character is assertive yet smooth, allowing for a seamless transition from heavy fuzz to crunch to clean. The powerful Tone knob adjusts the high and low frequencies, enabling you to dial in a variety of fuzz colors.

The Modern mode delivers a more refined and versatile fuzz voice with focused midrange and fatter tone, making it ideal for all types of current music styles. The gain range is even wider than Vintage mode, and cranking the Fuzz knob past three o'clock conjures rich, singing sustain for inspired solo playing.

The FZ-1W Fuzz Waza Craft Vintage and Modern Pedal is a product of Waza Craft, a series that represents the pinnacle of BOSS design and craftsmanship. This pedal is a testament to BOSS's commitment to achieving the finest guitar tones using any technology necessary, from old-school analog circuits to high-tech DSP. The FZ-1W is a perfect blend of art and technique, proudly carrying the Waza symbol as a mark of superior tone and touch response.
