The FET120 overdrive is one of the most popular pedals of Fuzzlord Effects, a company laser-focused on creating pedals for Doom and Stoner Metal players.
As hinted in the name, this is a pedal that reproduces, using FET technology, the classic tone of vintage 120 Watt amps of the ’70s like the Orange OR 120 or the Mad Amps GT 120. Optimized to shine on tuned-down guitar and bass, thanks to its huge amount of output, the FET120 can deliver anything from a clean boost all the way up to aggressive fuzz tones.
However, it mostly shines as a flexible overdrive, also thanks to the active Baxandall Bass/Treble controls that can deliver 20dB of cut or boost.
