Product Information

VOX Fuzz VFZ-1

Iconic 60s fuzz, reborn for modern players.

Few effects have defined the sound of electric guitar quite like fuzz. The VFZ-1 celebrates this legacy by revisiting one of the most influential fuzz circuits of all time: the classic two-transistor design of the late 1960s, commonly known as the Mk 1.5.

Its expressive breakup and dynamic response inspired generations of players, and the VFZ-1 faithfully revives that sound with modern reliability and usability.

Classic Germanium Character, Modern Silicon Stability

Vintage fuzz pedals are loved for their warm, harmonically rich distortion, but Germanium transistors are famously sensitive to temperature, inconsistent in performance, and prone to noise. While Silicon solves these problems, it rarely captures the sweetness of Germanium—until now.

After extensive analysis of prized vintage units, VOX engineers developed a Silicon-based design that preserves the magic of the originals. Each of the two Silver Can BC108 transistors is precisely biased to interact musically, just like the best Mk 1.5 circuits.

The result is a fuzz that is aggressive yet refined, dynamic yet stable, combining timeless tone with modern reliability and exceptionally low noise.

The Sound of Classic Fuzz and More

The VFZ-1’s carefully biased first transistor delivers unusually high input impedance for a vintage-style fuzz, preserving natural harmonics and allowing placement anywhere in your signal chain—even after Wah pedals or buffers.

The second transistor shapes the fuzz breakup, recreating smooth compression and rich overtone saturation reminiscent of an overdriven vintage valve amp. Together, they deliver expressive fuzz with excellent cleanup and touch sensitivity.

Shape Your Fuzz. Shape Your Voice.

Once the main Fuzz control is set, the VFZ-1 offers expanded tone-shaping tools for modern players. Bass Cut tightens the low end, Tone Cut smooths high frequencies, and the Crunch Switch delivers classic low-gain overdrive tones without touching your guitar’s volume control.

Tradition, Perfected

Inspired by the classic Mk 1.5 and early two-transistor fuzzes, the VFZ-1 captures their liquid sustain, mid-rich presence, and organic breakup while delivering lower noise, rock-solid stability, and far greater flexibility.

Legendary Fuzz Within Reach

Authentic Mk 1.5 fuzz tones have become rare, expensive, and inconsistent. The VFZ-1 brings that unmistakable character to modern pedalboards with refined engineering that makes it easier to use, easier to integrate, and far more reliable—without sacrificing the soul of the originals.
