    About the FORMULA B Fuzz Rangers


    The Formula B Fuzz Rangers takes two iconic circuits and encloses them in a beautifully finished chassis with vintage-style controls.

    New for 2024, the Fuzz Rangers now includes top-mounted jacks and simultaneous channel off using just one footswitch.

    With the option to run the Fuzz or Boost independently, it's an incredibly flexible pedal for your pedalboard, but where it gets interesting is that there's a toggle to set the direction of the signal. You can choose whether to run the Boost into the Fuzz, or vice-versa. The results differ dramatically...

    Running the Boost into the Fuzz saturates the input of the Fuzz Face circuit and gets you a rich, warm, super-fuzzy character. 

    Running the Fuzz into the Boost gets you a clearer tone with plenty of volume to push your amp.

    More than simply for fans of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan, this pedal will serve you well with its vintage vibe and tonal flexibility.

    Fuzz Rangers Fuzz Circuit

    The Fuzz circuit is based on the silicon Fuzz Face, using a pair of NOS military-spec BC108 transistors and carbon-layer resistors. It sounds great on its own, and reacts really nicely to your guitar's volume pot - as genuine Fuzz Faces do.

    Fuzz Rangers Boost Circuit

    The Boost circuit is based on the Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster, with silicon BC549 transistors to reduce compatibility problems (polarity, power etc) with the Fuzz circuit.

    Uniquely, there's a toggle switch to adjust the Boost frequency cut, making it more flexible than a traditional Rangemaster:

    Low Gives you a full-frequency response including the bass.

    Mid Focuses on the low-mid frequencies for a vintage valve-like frequency response.

    Hi Focuses on the upper frequencies for a lovely glassy sound.

    Simultaneous Channel Off

    New for 2024, the Fuzz Rangers now allows you to power off both channels of the pedal simultaneously by using only one footswitch - no more tap dancing!

    Press and hold the footswitch on the Fuzz side for a few seconds until the status LED starts blinking. You can now use either footswitch to power off both channels together. To return to the standard, independent mode, simply repeat this process.

    FORMULA B Fuzz Rangers Front Transparent 2024 1024x1024 | Boost Guitar Pedals

    About Formula B

    Formula B pedals are hand built by Marco Bovelli in
    Todi in Umbria, Italy. Taking classic gear as his inspiration, Marco crafts extraordinary guitar pedals with innovative features: for example, his Fuzz Rangers and Super Plexi pedals allow the user to set the boost before or after the main effect for varying sonic possibilities.

    The Formula B Vintage Vibe is one of our bestselling guitar pedals, and it's easy to see why - it's an homage to the Uni-Vibe, made famous by the likes of Jimi Hendrix, and features the lush, organic chewiness of the original combined with additional features suited to the modern pedalboard.

    The Mini Bender Combo squeezes Tone Bender Mk1.5 and MkII Pro circuits into one gorgeous
    enclosure. "Sounds really authentically visceral," says Stefan Karlsson at Guitar Pedal X.

    There's also the Fuzz Rangers Limited Edition,
    a world exclusive for Boost Guitar Pedals. It adds a silicon/germanium toggle replicating the sounds of the Fuzz Face in Si mode, and the Cesar Diaz Square Face in Ge mode.

    Formula B pedals have ended up in the hands (or more accurately, at the feet) of guitar luminaries including Slash and Diego Leanza.

    I looked for a place where FORMULAB Fuzz Rangers is not sold in Japan but is sold on Google.
    I found BOOST GUITAR PEDALS selling a reasonable price, and I bought it here without hesitation because I knew it would be delivered to Japan.

    I didn't feel worried at all when I found out that Jim was a reliable and reliable person who responded to the chat with a quick response.
    Personality trust removes borders.

    I really wanted to get the Fuzz Pedal because it was reviewed by some good guitar players on YouTube.
    It's a great pedal that doesn't disappoint.
    Fuzz's ability to follow the volume is good, and above all, the booster function is excellent.
    It's better than I thought.

    It's good to imitate Jimi Hendrix at home, and it's the best pedal that can't be buried in the band sound in the studio.

    It's an honor to meet this site.
    I stayed in England for two weeks 28 years ago and met many wonderful people.
    And again, I felt the same way as when I was young.

    Here's to the music.

    A Superb Pedal supplied perfectly

    I heard about this pedal on Instagram and contacted Jim at Boost Pedals immediately to find out about availability. Jim was quick to respond and advised that the next shipment was due in a week. He was also good enough to add me to the update list and to personally email me when they arrived so that I did not miss it. One day after they arrived to Boost from Italy I received mine from Boost. That is superb service. I cannot speak highly enough of them as the UK Agent.
    The Pedal built by Marco in Italy....... phenomenal! For a start off it is two/three fantastic pedals in one unit so it is excellent value. The fuzz is the most usable Fuzz I have ever had.... it somehow manages to give crazy good fuzz at higher end whilst not muddying up the lower end and chords..... It also cleans up really exceptionally when you lay back off the volume. The Tone Ranger side of the pedal has that fabulous glassy SRV type tone but again is exceptionally versatile in allowing you to play perfect cleans, edge of break up or driven....this side is pretty much a pedal you can use as your main tone range. Its brilliant. And then you can switch both on for a superb driven fuzz or clean it up by lowering the volume.....finally you can reverse the fuzz into tone to the other way round which gives a more modern (to my ear) overdrive. All incredibly useful.
    I am so glad I bought this pedal. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for these classic tones.
    Superb.

    Happy with this

    Still getting to know it but very happy so far. Nice dirty combos possible with the boost and fuzz on

    Delighted with the Fuzz Rangers

    Top pedal, love it. 2 problems solved in a tiny footprint for my small blues board, when I was just looking for a treble booster for getting the Beano sound. The fuzz is really articulate and plays nice with a wah. The numbered dials can be a bit difficult to read but after you've set the fuzz it is really just 2 volume knobs, so numbers matter less than ears!
    Cheers Jim. Great service and quick delivery

    A great find both pedalwise and shopwise

    I came across the Formula B Fuzz Rangers via online demos on Youtube, and they all sounded so good that I had to get one. Looking online I found the Boost Guitar Pedals website via the Formula B website as a listed UK stockist. Jim was excellent and the pedal arrived when he said it would and it was perfectly packaged. I would have no hesitation in buying any other product from Boost.
    As for the Fuzz Rangers, it is a great pedal. I had to work at it a touch to get the sounds I liked from it, but it seems to react really well to different guitars and different amps with adjustments to volume and tone on the guitar and different amp settings. I found it works best into a slightly cranked amp, and volume roll-off on the guitar offers a great variety of sounds from clean to classic fuzz. Thoroughly enjoying the pedal. Well done Jim, great website and a great selection of interesting brands and pedals..... Which one next????

    This pedal is simply fantastic.
    Great fuzz with a good sweep of control with the guitar volume pot. Cannot get an unlikeable sound through any pickup selection single coil/humbucker.
    Added benefit of the Rangemaster included is just lush. I am preferring boosting into the fuzz and use the boost into other drives along the chain.
    I am praising this as 2 great pedals in one comfortably sized housing. Amazing!

    For a long time I was convinced that I didn't need a fuzz. This is a pedal that convinced me otherwise. But, be aware and don't go at it guns blazing like I did. Jim offered some good advice as there is a lot of gain waiting here. You may need some time to get your levels right and having extra options such as the boost/fuzz direction switch and the low/mid/hi toggle can have a big effect.
    Backing the guitar's volume back a bit also helps with not overloading your amp. It's a great value pedal that has a permanent space on my board.
