Snowman fuzz

It's the day after Christmas. Christmas is boring. But it snowed like crazy, so the Lonesomes seized the opportunity and set out to build a snowman. And a crappy snowman they did build. Then they decided to take it to pieces and use it to make a fuzz distortion effect for Jeff's guitar.

Pierre and Anne hard at work

Snowman's ready! Looks a bit like the Pillsbury dough boy.

"...What if I connected my guitar through the snowman..."

-

Back in the studio Jeff is connecting a wire between the snowball -

- and a battery.

-

Connecting the guitar.

-

The guitar now faces the amp, and an amazing feedback loop feels the room. Pierre joins in to listen. The sound is very fuzzy and snowy, but there's still not enough distortion.

-

Jeff solves it by adding a distortion level knob.
