What’s the Best Vintage Fuzz?

#fuzz #fuzzpedal #shootout We hear a lot about old-school vintage fuzzes and how amazing they were, but we don't often hear about how different (or not-so-different) they actually are. Today we will be comparing my favourite modern-day versions of a Fuzz Face (from Spruce Effects), a Tone Bender (from Expresso FX) and finally a Zonk Machine (from Reeves Electro).
