The sound of the gutter can be yours!
These are exclusive 1960s-inspired designs, not available anywhere else, hand-made to exacting autistic standards, in unique enclosures with rare germanium transistors. They have simple controls, bold, hand-stamped graphics, and a high-impact sound.
Prices vary according to the amount of work involved and the cost of materials, but they generally sell for £150-£200+ plus shipping.

Bad Motorscooter
A crude cousin of Gary Hurst’s first Tone Bender, with a sound that is bad tempered and broken, the very last of the 2G381 and 2G381T transistors, and a Maestro twist.
FZ-X
A wild and hairy hot-rodded Fuzztone with three tonal options. It takes the building blocks of the 60s to create something new.
2.Bad
A super-raw, two-transistor, one-knob, minimalist germanium fuzz. It covers a range of tones thanks to a big ol’ switch on the side!
Bad Nite
A square wave fuzz monster straight out of 1966 with four transistors. A really pissed-off sound and a Good Fuzzy Sounds fan favourite.
Bad Apple
Designed for a hobby magazine in 1968 with features from 1962, re-jigged by me in 2020 to be fuller, more versatile and with more sustain.
In development
Bad Moon
A re-imagined germanium version of an ultra-rare silicon fuzz from late 1960s Japan. Louder, wilder and dirtier than the original.
Bad Road
This pedal has taken me on quite a journey, and I’m not sure where it ends! I’m working on it, and it could still be a fire-breather!
