Controls can be set to produce low-volume, controllable
distortion or increased to achieve a warm, tube overdrive sound. Set to maximum,
its pronounced fuzztone combines with long sustain. Within the central areas of
the Output and Distortion controls of the M104 are some soft, clipped
distortions that sound truly authentic, especially with a splash of reverb.
Pushing the Distortion level up high produces some classic fuzz tones
that are finding their way onto an increasing number of albums, in line with the
current retro fascination. This distortion is an enjoyable alternative from L.A.
saturation and thick, British crunch. The distortion can also be tamed by using
it with a warm crunch/overdrive sound as a base for some hip Hendrix sounds, and
also to emulate Randy Rhoads' favorite deployment of his
Distortion+.
