Rufus is a unique pedal that offers a vast array of fuzz tones. Whether your tastes are for the historic tones created at The Fillmore East back in ‘69, or you crave the more aggressive, mid-scoped characteristics of the Grunge-era, Rufus has you covered, and then some. Also includes a foot-swichable and extremely tactile octave-up effect.
Engineered to excel on both bass and guitar, the Suhr Rufus supplies a sweeping array of fuzzed-out sounds that take you from the silicon-fueled tones of the 1960s to the mid-scooped might of the grunge era with the twist of a knob.
What makes the Rufus so versatile? The full 3-band EQ certainly doesn’t hurt, as it allows you to twist and tweak your tone between sputtering psychedelic sounds, crushing wall-of-sound riffage, and everything else in between. Plus, the Rufus’s 3-position Treble switch offers complete control of your signal’s top-end chime. You also get two distinct modes — Normal and Fat — that utilize Suhr’s mf(x) footswitch technology, allowing you to swap settings mid-song by simply holding down the switch.
Finally, the Rufus is finished off with a plethora of utility features, including flexible FX Link remote control, a built-in battery monitor, and true bypass functionality.

SUHR: UNRIVALED IN CRAFTSMANSHIP
Suhr doesn’t just build handcrafted, boutique-quality instruments and amplifiers — the company creates exceptional tools that fuel musical dreams and artistic passions. John Suhr began crafting custom guitars in the mid-1970s, and by the dawn of the 1980s, he was building made-to-order Pensa-Suhr instruments for a who’s who of top musicians. In the 1990s, John collaborated with celebrated rig builder Bob Bradshaw to design the now-legendary CAA 3+ and 3+SE preamps and the CAA OD-100 amplifier. In 1997, after a stint as senior master builder for Fender’s Custom Shop, John founded his own company, a decision that enabled him to bring to fruition products of unrivaled quality, detail, and craftsmanship.
Today, the Suhr name is synonymous with prestige; a guitar, bass, or amplifier with the Suhr marque garners instant respect. With elite players such as Mateus Asato, Reb Beach, Scott Henderson, James Norbert Ivanyi, Andre Nieri, Pete Thorn, Ian Thornley, Doug Aldrich, and Andy Wood on the company’s roster, you can be certain that your Suhr places you in esteemed company.
