To be historically correct, Johnny Burnette [Train Kept A Rollin] was the first use of 'fuzz' to achieve national recognition in 1956. The effect was produced by a couple of loose tubes in the amp.
"Rumble" was the first instrumental to chart nationally using the effect - which is amazing, because it was 'banned' in a number of cities. Too suggestive to the juvenile delinquent crowd.

@profaqualung Great comment and info. Paul Burlison used that amp defect to get that sound and Link sliced his speakers with a razor to get that sound. Hats off to both of them.
