Fjord Fuzz HEDDA
Maker: Fjord Fuzz Model: HEDDA Condition: New Description: I’ve spent the last 10 years trying to squeeze as much vintage fuzz tone and texture as possible into modern, user-friendly and predictable packages, with wonderful results, such as BERSERK, EMBLA, FREIA and ODIN. However, I think most people have figured out how to work with fuzz pedals now, so the whole “I want a fuzz that doesn’t behave like a fuzz” thing is kind of done. Personally I would easily sacrifice the ability to stick my fuzz after a buffer or unbuffered wah if it meant I could get the most distinguished, gentlemanly low end compression and the most glassy, bell-like cleanup on the other end. This is what HEDDA does. There’s two un-labeled controls, both of which use beautiful, old, RCA-style, bakelite radio knobs. One for volume, one for transistor biasing. At lower bias, you can get that sputtery gated fuzz and at higher bias, the Gilmour-like over-biased, sustains lead tone. There’s not as much out
