FuzzHugger FH(fx) The Hugger: Give Your Tone A Hug

November 21, 2008
FH(fx) The Hugger

Created by FuzzHugger's Tom Dalton and developed with help from Mellowtone, FH(fx) releases the Hugger. It's a dual boost loop, a pedal awakener and a wearer of several hats.

The FH(fx) Hugger features a pair of toggle-switchable boost circuits and another toggle-switchable feature -- a true bypass loop -- in between the former toggle-switchable duo. This switchable routing leads to many effects and uses for the Hugger beyond just making you feel better when you're down in the dumps.

Intended uses:

  • A single-stage boost.
  • A dual-stage boost (with boost and master controls).
  • A true bypass loop with a pre-boost and post-boost!
  • A pedal awakener! Put a pedal in the loop -- drive its input and / or adjust its output volume without changing its tone (fix a pedal's volume drop!).
  • Two separate boosts. Put a few pedals (or all your pedals!) in the loop and use it like two separate boost pedals -- choose the location of both boosts!
  • Module hugger -- use modules like the Mellowtone Fat Sound in the loop. Turn your Hugger into whatever type of module you put in the loop. Or stack several in different orders to create new effects textures!

What's more, all FuzzHugger pedals are hand-painted, guaranteeing that yours will be one of a kind.

Stunning pedals by FH(fx)

By: Alfonso C. (not verified)

I'll just say this about FH(fx)... I was so happy with my Algal Bloom and 1134 Fuzz that I went ahead and got a Hugger. Now this is one cool concept, the pedal can do many many kickass things. I run a fuzz and reverb pedal through the effect loop of the Hugger and get access to my killer ghostly all out fuzz tone with one stomp, and no more loosing my level. The pedal has two boosters in it and works really well to help push an already driven tone, it pushed other pedals and brings them to life or you can use it as a booster on it's own and push a clean amp into dirt heaven. FH(fx) has one of the best collection of effects I've seen in a long time. Support them they work their asses off and do a great job at producing great boxes.
