Electro-Harmonix Satisfaction Plus Fuzz
Electro-Harmonix · pedal
The Electro-Harmonix Satisfaction Plus Fuzz is an expanded version of the original Satisfaction Fuzz, adding Tone, Bias controls, and a FAT/NORM mode switch to the base two-knob layout. The Bias control dials fuzz character from open and balanced sustain to gated and sputtery. FAT mode produces a bigger, warmer, woolier fuzz voicing for wall-of-thunder riffs and heavy chording; NORM mode is brighter and more snarling. Based on a silicon transistor fuzz circuit derived from the classic Jordan BossTone.
