Pre-Owned 2012 JHS Pedals Astro Mess Fuzz
The Astro Mess Fuzz: gritty silicon fuzz with a chaotic twist
Silicon fuzz with punch and personality
The JHS Astro Mess Fuzz, a collaboration with Drew Shirley of Switchfoot, is built to stand out. This silicon-based fuzz circuit delivers aggressive, snarling tones that cut through any mix. It's loud, unapologetic, and full of raw character, ideal for players chasing a saturated, vintage-meets-modern fuzz voice.
Gated madness at your feet
A central switch engages a unique gated mode, giving your sound a pulsing, suction-like character. It adds an unpredictable edge, perfect for textured riffs or sonic experimentation. This dynamic response makes the Astro Mess more than a one-trick fuzz, it’s a living, breathing tone machine.
Simple controls, complex tones
With just two knobs: fuzz and volume, you can dial in anything from sputtery breakup to thick, sustaining walls of gain. Whether you're layering fuzz in the studio or commanding attention on stage, the Astro Mess is a versatile and intuitive tool.
Worn, rugged, and road-ready
This 2012 unit shows heavy playwear. The front graphic has worn off completely, and there's velcro on the back for pedalboard use. It may look rough, but it’s fully functional and ready for many more sonic voyages.
