Post Searching for a warm and calm Fuzz pedal (like on the national anthem by radiohead)

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm looking for affordable Bass Fuzz pedal that gives the cool/calm fuzz sound instead of the grindy noisy over the top fuzz.

Currently I have a hartke Bass Attack which has a gain that sounds okish in a overdrive sound, and I have a Zoom b2.1u which has a overdrive, distortion and Fuzz.
I hate the overdrive and distortion sound on this pedal, and the fuzz is always too much and noisy.

The national anthem by the radiohead has the kind of sound I'm kinda looking for, also Muse plays some great fuzz tones on starlight and hysteria.

would a Big muff pi Bass give me the sound i'm looking for?
