“Delivers the same tones that made the original popular with legends”: Rotosound’s ultra-rare fuzz pedal has been reissued – bringing Jimmy Page-approved fuzz magic to the masses

The annals of fuzz pedal history isn’t short on iconic stompboxes, but Rotosound’s legendary germanium fuzz unit from 1967 – a hugely rare design that was championed early on by the likes of Jimmy Page – is a particular standout.

When it was first developed in the late ’60s, the Rotosound Fuzz was made in limited quantities, available exclusively from Rotosound’s London showroom, and never released for general sales.
