Nugget Fuzz

Compared to the Cornish NG-2, Pete Cornish's hand-built, high-gain silicon fuzz has been a piece of serious pro-level gear since the '70s — used by David Gilmour and a who's-who of arena-rock guitarists. The NG-2 commands eye-watering prices and a long waiting list, making a clone the only realistic path to that massive, smooth, harmonically rich fuzz wall.
