One of the earliest post-Fuzz Factory pedals to break into the scene was the Fuzz God , from New Zealand ’ s own Red Witch . Like the Factory , the original Fuzz God was based around a germanium-powered , vintage Fuzz Face-inspired circuit equipped with a greatly enhanced control set for bringing the mayhem . The current incarnation , however , the Fuzz God II , is silicon-based for more gain and control , using BC109c transistors just like many a fine old Fuzz Face . The Fuzz God II sets itself apart from the pack with its
smooth , classic sounding tonal foundation , and a dedicated footswitch ( dubbed “ Wrath ”) for summoning the oscillation and squirrelly sub-octave freakouts . This makes it easy to switch between more subdued , friendly fuzz tones and total auditory meltdown , giving the Red Witch Fuzz God II a measure of controllability that other pedals in this category lack . Mini-toggles for treble boost and doubling the gain ( whoa ) further enhance its flexibility .
