The Dutch Kazoo is a new fuzz with a unique original all-analog design — not a clone.
Its two-stage overdrive interacts with a blendable kazoo filter and tone control to present a palette of tones from slight overdrive to heavily saturated psychedelic fuzz to metallic noise. True bypass switching maintains the integrity of the guitar signal with the fuzz switched off.
The innovative fuzz circuit was designed by high-flying hi-fi guru JC Morrison.
The Dutch Kazoo is hand-assembled in the United States using top-quality through-hole components with hard-wired jacks and controls.
US$225 plus shipping.

– Reviewed in Vintage Guitar’s March 2014 issue - “The Dutch Kazoo fills the hole left by the long dead Superfuzz…It’s a great sounding box, and it is a sound that I’ve been missing for too long.”
