Radio

Post by Thom »

Weird thing happened last night, and again today, when I was playing through my Fuzz Face into my Princeton I turned my guitar volume down to zero and then quite clearly Spanish radio was coming through my amp :lol:
It went away when I turned the guitar back up, or unplugged it. A quick google showed that this is quite common with some fuzz circuits (though not necessarily Spanish radio!)! Happened to any of you guys?

Had this happen with a shitty Fender combo once I used with an old bass. It was weird

Used to happen with my fuzz factory a lot which is a fuzz face derivative.

You can hear William Reeds Fuzz pedal picking up radio signals on a Peel session.

At 3:49 you can hear a trucker on his CB coming through my bass / rat pedal.
