General

The Fuzz Factory is one of the most popular pedals by the inimitable Z.Vex Effects. An attractive version of it is the Z.Vex Fat Fuzz Factory (Vexter). It has roughly the same electronics along with a special Sub switch that expands on the already vast tonal options of the original Fuzz Factory. The Sub adds fat and powerful presence in the low frequencies to the already rough Fuzz sound of the Fuzz Factory. The bass can now thankfully fuzz along, which sounds fantastic with electric guitars and bass guitars alike. This is the Vexter version, which is the non-hand-painted version.

The remarkable Z.Vex.

Z.Vex Effects founder Zachary Vex is a celebrity in the world of innovative guitar effects. You will find his Z.Vex effects on the pedalboards of many famous guitarists. The pedals are hand-made, often hand-painted and are produced in small batches (made by elves, according to Z.Vex). To be able to serve a larger group of customers, they make the Vexter series - the same options and sound quality, with a printed picture.

Z.Vex Effects Fat Fuzz Factory Vexter pedal
Wrote the following about Z.Vex Effects Fat Fuzz Factory Vexter pedal
Ik heb dit pedaal nu ongeveer een maand geleden gekocht. Ik wou hem bijna weer terug sturen maar ben uiteindelijk hardstikke blij ermee.

Het is een ontzettend veelzijdig fuzz pedaal. MAAR je moet er echt wat tijd aan besteden voordat je dit ding begrijpt. En als je hem dan doorhebt, dan kun je oneindig veel geluiden uit dit ding halen. Van compressed tot smooth tot octaaf omlaag/omhoog tot synth fuzz. Echt een geweldig pedaal.
Het pedaal is niet echt geschikt als lichte fuzz en je volumeknop op je gitaar terugdraaien werkt daar niet echt goed voor. Door je volumeknop terug te draaien krijg je wel andere hele toffe geluiden.
Dit ding is ideaal voor als je bepaalde geluiden zoekt tijdens het opnemen (je kan echt heel veel geluiden hiermee krijgen). Voor live gebruik raad ik aan een aantal van je favoriete settings op te schrijven en een ander fuzz pedaal ervoor te zetten. Hierdoor wordt je fat fuzz factory wat makkelijker te gebruiken (en werkt gitaar volume terugdraaien beter).
Kortom echt een tof pedaal. Ik zou hem zeker kopen als je zoekt naar je eigen fuzz sound, en die zul je hiermee zeker vinden.

Ik wil Bax even bedanken voor de geweldige service die ze je bieden. KOPEN!
