Warm Audio Dirty Boy Jr. Fuzz
Vintage-Style Fuzz Pedal With Added 6-Position Frequency Control
Overview
The Original Dirty Boy “Afro Fuzz” Circuit Rebuilt Into A Pedalboard-Friendly Format
A Hand-Built Boutique Legacy, Recreated With Dirty Boy
Founded by Alex Saraceno, Dirty Boy Pedals built its reputation one pedal at a time with handcrafted designs that blended vintage inspiration with original circuit refinements. Among the company's most celebrated creations was the Afro Fuzz, a boutique reimagining of the legendary British "circular" fuzz that paired rich sustain and touch-sensitive response with a unique six-position frequency selector. Dirty Boy partnered with Warm Audio to faithfully recreate the acclaimed Afro Fuzz circuit in the Dirty Boy Jr. Fuzz, bringing its sought-after tones and character to more players in a compact, pedalboard-friendly format.
Vintage Fuzz Tone, Expanded With Boutique Control
The Dirty Boy Jr. Fuzz captures everything players love about classic vintage fuzz while adding the flexibility that made the original Dirty Boy design a modern boutique favorite. Premium all-analog circuitry delivers rich sustain, dynamic cleanup, and touch-sensitive response, while dedicated Volume and Fuzz controls pair with the signature six-position Frequency selector to reshape the circuit's overall voice. Expect thick, low-end-heavy saturation to sharp, more cutting textures with the Fuzz Jr. True bypass operation, authentic Dirty Boy styling, and rugged road-ready construction complete a pedal designed to inspire whether it's pushing a clean amp, stacking with other effects, or delivering vintage fuzz tones all on its own.
