Distortion VS Overdrive VS Fuzz 

Me, a punk rocker: "They all sound clean".

Overdrive: piuuuum pararpaum Distorcion: PORWRRUURUMMM PSRRWRARA Fuzz: PRPPRLR PRPLRPLPRLPF

Overdrive : 😠 Distortion: 😡 Fuzz : 👿

Bro moved to Mexico just to film after the clean portion

Fuzz got me bro

Clean and fuzz all day for the Hendrix chord.

Fuzz is just so chewy. I can’t stop the obsession

Fuzz is more for me. But this riff combines more with overdrive.

The clean sound though

I'm a clean and distortion kinda guy. The wife is clean and fuzz.

overdrive has a distinct clean / mushy tone that sounds best to these old ears. Never stop playing Guitar !!!!

my green Russian big muff seems to have that perfect blend of fuzz/distortion that I use it for both now. it can be dialed in to sound like each, also. my current fave pedal

He looks like a might give an album a light 8

Fuzz is the heaviest and most fulfilling

Fuzz is the overdrive lifted to a high level of LoFi. It has its beauty.

this all sounds so clean

That overdrive tho.

Thank you for the explanation!! No doubts left!!✌🏾

Anthony fantano got chops

I'm conflicted but satisfied. I searched "overdrive vs distortion" to try and figure out what I wanted. I was looking for an explanation...I guess explanations don't always require words and don't have to be lengthy. Thanks!

Great concise demo! And I love me an S series.

So basically overdrive=punk, distortion=metal, and fuzz=jimi

So digestable, well displayed! Love it!

Overdrive combined with cranked up treble, bass, and mids around 12 o clock makes for the perfect hard rock/ blues sound.

Distortion all day everyday!

Love the distorted one it feels like the old days

sick tune nice demo 👍

Fuzz is so underrated

I love them all

distortion sounded so fire

It depends of what genre you want,if its hard rock then its distortion if its rock and roll you go with overdrive and for fuzz its still hard rock

Me pressing the overdrive for the first time: “oh my god, I get it”

Just kept getting better and better. (I'm a metalhead.)

Distorsión yeahh men,,!!

Fuzz or overdrive, both of them, but not together 🙂

It juts gets funkier🤘

Why does that sound so fuckin cool??

it's cool how drive and fuzz like scale with volume unlike distortion

They all sound great! I'd use all of them! I'm someone that experiments with different sounds from different things.

OVERDRIVE MY BELOVED

Fuzz на неке🤤

Thanks

my first fuzz was a Morley power wah fuzz, first overdrive 80s pro co rat, first distortion, boss hm 2. Still have all if them pedals, but line 6 made me lazy. ( pod hd pro x rack mount) it can do anything! You play great, but I want that shirt!👍

Usually I like distortion but that overdrive!

Nice!!!

Clean

Jesse! Jesse ,we need to rock

Sheeeeeesh 🔥🔥🔥

Fuzz - вкусняшка!!

Ohh cool

Distortionnn

distortion and overdrive baby

overdrive works amazing to boost distorsion midrange or fuzz lowrange

thats a smooth riff, bro... I wish i could play that. 🥹

toooo overpowereddddd

Distorted is wild

Oh man I love fuzz!

New realisation for me. Ive never owned Fuzz, but it sounds as driven as distortion, yet with more clarity to the notes. Although, personally i prefer the tightness of OD over the looser Fuzz sound. Also OD's can get more gainy than that sample if needed. I started with distortion in the 80s (Boss Heavy Metal Pedal, and Ross Distortion - the black one), then thru a bunch of amps with gain or vol/master combo. Nowdays i love my SD-1, with the GE-7 together. If i want more grit (metal styles) but at low volume without the loudness of valve breakup on my princeton(bedroom volumes), i use a MIAB pedal. Fuzz seems a little messy for my tastes, but some people love that. The closest i would wanna get to fuzz is a ProCo Rat with drive at about 9 or 10' o'clock.

Fuzz and overdrive are just two types of distortion. I guess they mean different things when you’re talking about pedals, but from an engineering perspective they’re all just variations of the same effect

In the old days there were only two pedals... a fuzz and a wah. Over the many years they've made so many pedals I've long lost track of which is what.

Fuzz is one of my favorite effects

i love guitars with distortion

definitely the distortion setting...

Well done, but there's a bit of drive in the clean tone though because the pickups have high gain... It's not perfectly clean

Is this a song or a random riffing? Sounds sick!

Damn, my amp kinda has some fuzz into it when I plug it to my electric guitar. I dunno why but I kinda like that, both the amp and guitar is over 20 years old or so.

Distortion and Fuzz

i believe i have the same guitar as this guy

What overdrive pedal are you using? I love the tone!

Overdrive for me

Distortion sound best for a more rock-like tune

Fuzz sounds nice

Me gusta más el Fuzz y la distorsión

I can never put into application Fuzz. Crunch and Distortion for me.

whats the riff you are playing? Can we get a lesson?

Whalefall puts u underwater in a similar way to weird fishes fr😩

Distortion

Yup bruh

Distortion sounds like fuzz to me. But, I just got the fuzz pedal so I’ll keep ya posted.

Now do ring mod and bitcrusher!

Od and fuzz for me

the second one is so punk

Are u using one pedal for all of them? If yes how is it called?

OVERDRIVE!

So if I were chasing a EVH tone, OD or dist.?

Fuzz Jimi Hendrix?

What song are you playing?

I could be wrong by my analogy but I’ve always felt like distortion was like for classic rock type music, overdrive was for like metal, and fuzz was for like almost blues type of rock like Hendrix or something. But I know some of them can be mixed and matched. Like certain distortion pedals can be used for metal while some overdrives can be used for classic rock. But that’s just my analogy or what not lol.

version with the fuzz reeks of dirt weed and cheap beer. fuzz all day baby

Tabs please this is beautiful

А ещё красивый звук получается, если после лёгкого овержрайва включить фузз

Clean: Normal Funk OD: 70s Funk Distortion: Def SRV Downplayed Fuzz: Hendrixesque

Overdrive + Distortion + Fuzz = Now is good

Overdrive for the win

Did you also think he was Fantano?

Pick your flavour…

Overdrive

What fuzz pedal did he use

Technically, all 3 "dirty" sounds are distortions, which is usually obtained by overdriving something. Please be more specific, what are you calling "overdrive"? An overdriven amp? A soft clipping circuit? A fet circuit?

Fuzz all the way
