Fu Manchu / Scott Hill's SuperFuzz settings?


Recommended Posts

As the title implies, I'm curious if anyone out there knows what settings Scott Hill used on his SuperFuzz for those early Fu Manchu recordings.

 

Scooped or Non-Scooped?

 

And do you think both knobs are maxed?

 

 

I've also e-mailed Brad (Creepy Fingers) about this but was wondering if anyone out there has some ideas first.

it's only got two knobs so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out ;p

 

more useful to find out what amp setup and guitar he used if your going for the same sound, big difference between single coils and humbuckers with the Superfuzz etc.

They used a Roland Double Beat & a Crown Fuzz (which was stolen and later recovered). Then moved on to the Orange/Blue SuperFuzz, Fuzz Faces, & Big Muffs.

 

I did hear back from Brad (great guy and fantastic customer service) and he said the following:

 

Both knobs on Max & the Scooped setting.

 

Guitar needs to be down-tuned a full-step and to use HUMBUCKERS ONLY!
