The Evil Eye FX Warg Pedal takes the spirit of the rare Ace Tone FM-3 fuzz and pushes it into modern territory with more flexibility, better reliability, and an even bigger sound. This pedal is designed for players who love aggressive fuzz tones but still want enough clarity to hear every note in a chord. It can deliver thick walls of crushing distortion for doom, sludge, and stoner rock, yet it still responds well to lead playing and heavy riff work. The gain feels rich and full without losing definition, which helps the pedal stand out from many overly compressed fuzz designs.
One of the standout features is the EQ switch, which gives the Warg two distinct personalities. The scooped setting creates a huge, dark fuzz tone that sounds massive through large amps and down-tuned guitars. Flip to the flatter EQ setting and the pedal gains extra midrange punch that helps your guitar cut through a loud band mix with ease. The tone control also offers a wide range of shaping options, making it simple to dial in sounds from gritty vintage fuzz to thick modern saturation.
The build quality feels just as impressive as the sound. Silent soft-touch switching keeps operation smooth and quiet during live sets, while the top-mounted jacks make pedalboard layouts cleaner and easier to manage. Premium internal components and German-made hardware give the pedal a solid, road-ready feel that matches its high-end design. Finished with striking artwork by Jordan from Pine-Box Customs, the Evil Eye FX Warg Pedal looks every bit as aggressive as it sounds.
Best Ace Tone Fuzz Master FM-3 Clone
The Evil Eye FX Warg Pedal is heavily inspired by the rare Ace Tone FM-3 “Fuzz Master” from 1971, a lesser-known vintage fuzz that helped shape some of the earliest high-gain fuzz sounds. While the original FM-3 never reached the fame of other classic fuzz pedals, it developed a reputation for its aggressive character, powerful sustain, and raw, cutting tone. The Warg captures that same wild personality while updating the design with modern reliability and expanded tonal flexibility.
Rather than creating a strict copy, Evil Eye FX reworked the original FM-3 style circuit with modern features that make it more versatile for today’s players. The added EQ switch gives guitarists access to both deep scooped fuzz tones and fuller and punchier midrange sounds that cut through a mix more clearly. Combined with quality of life improvements like silent soft-touch true bypass switching, top-mounted jacks, high-end German-made hardware, and premium internal components, the Evil Eye FX Warg Pedal delivers the spirit of the original Ace Tone FM-3 with a more refined and pedalboard-friendly design.

Volume
Controls the volume output level of the pedal. Turn it up for huge, powerful fuzz tones that can easily push an amp harder or balance it perfectly with your clean sound.
Tone
Shapes the overall voice of the pedal by adjusting the brightness and texture of the fuzz. Lower settings create a darker and heavier sound while higher settings add extra clarity and bite.
Gain
