Pedal designer SolidGoldFX has added another exciting effect to its expanding line of well-regarded stompboxes. Building upon the brand's popular If 6 Was 9 fuzz circuit, the brand-new Spanish Castle Dual Fuzz gives players an expanded palette of tweakable fuzz tones, with each side of the circuit having been inspired by the If 6 Was 9's signature sounds. It's available exclusively through Reverb now.
The Spanish Castle's "Fuzz A" is a warm, vintage-voiced fuzz, equipped with silicon transistors and carbon comp resistors, while "Fuzz B" plays its modern counterpart, featuring a tighter voice, metal film resistors, high-gain transistors, and extended bias range for gated and sputtery fuzz tones as well as smoother, more traditional sounds.
Players can use the three-way color switch to tweak mid-range and shave treble. Additionally, both sides of the fuzz also include a three-position input toggle: all the way to the right will get you more traditional vintage input, center is a wah-friendly setting that reduces bass and drops gain, and the left is even more of a wah-friendly position, only mildly tweaking the gain and bass.
