Cool article. I didn't know the first recorded electronic distortion was on a bass solo. Or that country top-40 songs used to have bass solos

Most of this is common knowledge among fuzz aficionados,...but I don't have a problem with anyone posting a little history lesson.

that was a cool article especially as a lover of the fuzz (Wooly Mammoth clone, Gnomeratron VTF, Way huge Swollen Pickle, Russian Big Muff Gutter-mouth Modded, Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz, Montreal Assembly-Wrong Side of Uranus and a Fender Sub-Lime BAass Fuzz) LOVE IT!
