PICKLE PIE HELLA FUZZ

Ahh fuzz. Most guitarists have had a love/hate relationship with the repeated squashing, squishing, and mangling of a guitar signal commonly known as "fuzz". It's no wonder. Use it right, and you can have a tone smooth as velvet, with balls as big as an elephant. Use it wrong and you can have a muddy mess that disappears when the band kicks in, or a nasally buzz that sounds like a mosquito took up residence in your ear.
