BORIS: FUZZ FOR THE PEOPLE

Boris is a beastly guitar fuzz pedal whose roots lie in a particular 90's 4 transistor Russian circuit. Dr Deiter Von FüzzBrauer was always mystified by the simple, yet devastating tones that could be achieved by this circuit. But there was always a problem, when this circuit was employed in a live setting the massive wall of fuzz would be buried under the bass, drums and anything else. Why? Well, each instrument occupies a particular frequency and the circuit scoops mids, and mids is where the guitar shines. These amazing tones that could be had are be easily corrected in a recording mix, but what about the live players? No, this will not stand, Von FüzzBrauer had his quest. Create the thick and massive sought-after tones but without the sacrifice of being lost in the live mix.
