The original Bosstone wasn't even a pedal, it was a device you plugged directly into your guitar, which brought a host of problems. Hence, we greatly refined the circuit for the original FUZZLY BEAR, to get the essence of that old-school sound, but giving it some modern twists by sorting out the low end and adding a Bias control, to help players explore lots of new tonal capabilities of this long-forgotten box of dirty tricks. With the \u003cstrong\u003eKMA Machines Fuzzly Bear 2\u003c\/strong\u003e, KMA put their now classic re-imagined fuzz into a modern, more pedal board friendly enclosure with top mounted jacks, enhanced it with relay-based silent switching and improved electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eFROM OVERDRIVE TO AGGRESSIVE FUZZ\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBack in the day, the main reason why the Jordan Boss Tone did not conquer the world of effects was actually due to its massive lack of bass. However, its core fuzz sounds could be truly heavenly with tones ranging from a purring overdrive, to downright vile and aggressive fuzz assaults. But when you awoke it, dug in and found 'that' tone, boy was it good and not at all harsh and gritty, like so many other fuzz designs at the time could be. When designing and modifying the circuit, KMA kept all that fuzzy goodness, but brought back the essential low end and gave some more tonal control, all to make this take fit more modern styles without compromising the core sound and simplicity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003e​BIAS\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFUZZLY BEAR 2's SKIN\/MEAT control adjusts the bias of the circuit. Think of it as the claws of the beast. You can dial in a sharp drive tone that only brazes the skin, a thick and meaty wall of fuzzy fur that can rip right through the intruder's flesh and anything in between. The GAIN knob delivers a whole range of different fuzz shapes. Back it off to get a dirty chunky overdriven tone, turn it up to give the FUZZLY BEAR 2 a thick and thicker coat of fur. Set the gain fully clockwise and magic will happen! The pedal's smooth, warm and cosy decay turns into a starved and gated fuzz sound that almost gives a ghost octave, pseudo trumpety kinda vibe – perfect for classic tunes of yesteryear.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDon't confuse this pedal with a cute brown bear cub – this is the FUZZLY BEAR 2 and it will maul your face off! Powered by an optional standard 9V DC (max.) PSU (negative center, 2.1mm, 35 mA current draw)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KMA Machines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451305521255,"sku":"488661","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/kma-fuzzly-bear-2_488661_1.jpg?v=1787096710","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/kma-machines-fuzzly-bear-2-silicon-fuzz-pedal","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
