JHS Cheese Ball Fuzz is JHS' tribute to Lovetone Big Cheese. Big Cheese was made in the mid-1990's and has been used by The Edge, J. Mascis, Kevin Shields and many other notable guitarists. Original Big Cheeses go for about 600-700 € on the used market, when they come on sale. JHS Cheese Ball gives you the same sound with a lot smaller price tag and smaller size too. One of the best fuzz/distortion sounds ever.
