Muff based FUZZ help!

[James Rock]

Okay so I love fuzz tones and basically I'm looking to clean up my board and have more versatility. I currently have a triangle muff clone and a boss hyper fuzz as my main fuzz tones but also use a joyo voodoo octave fuzz and a few distortion pedals. I was hoping I could replace most of that with a dual fuzz, the two I'm looking at are the blackout effectors twosome and the black arts tone works sarcophagus. While I'm shoegaze influenced the huge wall of doom fuzz isn't my main aim, I kind of want Gilmoury leads and black keys kind of fuzz as well as more aggressive fuzzy 60s style fuzz that I get form the joyo and hyper fuzz at the moment. The twosome seems the best due to the versatility of the fixed fuzz but many people have said the musket is too modern and tight sounding for the more wild fuzz thing. The sarcophagus seems cool but don't know if it can get vintage fuzz tones. The other option is just replace my triangle with a Pharaoh supreme and keep using the hyper fuzz.

Any suggestion are great. The reason I am keen in these ones is I have seen them all for under 300 Australia on ebay and reverb.com

Also my amp is kind of a marshall vox matchless hybrid thing (based on the hotbox pedal preamp and an ac15 power amp section) that I run semi clean/crunch with mostly single coils

Line 6 M5 might be a good shot. It's at least programmable and you can choose various Fuzz types, while still only having only 2 switches.

Thanks not really keen on digital fuzz though want to upgrade from what I have otherwise I'd get a pedalboard solution like a helix or m13 and replace everything.

Where's TGWIF when you need him?

Dont know about the sarcophagus, but the pharaoh alone is epic.

Re: Muff based FUZZ help!

In my experience with various dual fuzz pedals... one side is almost always better/more useful than the other... so, you basically wind up with a pedal that does one thing really well while taking up more space than it needs to.

IMO, stick to single purpose pedals. Generally cheaper, and IMO far more practical.

I pulled the trigger on the twosome. I got it for 300aud which is how much just the musket fuzz is new in Australia. I watched heaps of videos and I liked the musket over the pharoah most of the time. The pharoah has a high mid thing going on which is cool but maybe not what I'm going for and might not work with my mid heavy amp. The pharoah supreme looks cool with its extra features but cost even more. Should get the twosome by tomorrow and be able to see if I like it. The fix'd fuzz part seems versatile enough to cover sounds I'm after (aggressive 60s Psychadelic fuzz tones)
