They are known for their tonal balance, medium gain distortion, and a mid range that was not overly-scooped. Our favorite elements of each of these variants come together in the Smuffle Fuzz.

It creates a pleasing, fuzzy overdrive sound drenched in even-order harmonics, unlike any Tone Bender or Fuzz Face variants before or after it.
