Mad Professor’s FUZZ32 is a hand-wired germanium fuzz “without the shortcomings”
Limited-edition pedal sports added output, boost toggle and more

Mad Professor Amplification has unveiled the FUZZ32 pedal, a new limited-edition, hand-wired germanium fuzz pedal “without the shortcomings."
According to Mad Professor, this means offering a stable fuzz circuit that “is not as delicate to temperature” as vintage fuzz faces, and at a more affordable price point.
The new pedal sports volume, tone and fuzz knobs, as well as a boost toggle.
Mad Professor also added output in order to “reach the unity gain and boost too, even with the mildest amounts of fuzz.”
The FUZZ32 is being offered in a very limited quantity of 96 pedals (32 each in blue, red and turquoise). Blue is available now for €290 (approx. $320).
