    Re: The one and only fuzz thread

    What ??? I have to choose between my JHS FuzzFace and my Big Muff Triangle Re ???
    Oh I failed already !
    Bye bye...

    You may also choose a kind of Tone Bender.

      I have not tried but there is Pharao Fuzz with a Silicon / Germanium toggle switch.
      There is a demo by Andy GPS.

      La Rica circuit is FF based ?

        Great idea on the super adjustable mid control.

          Green switch has Voodoo Octave (foxx tone machine clone), and Red switch the Big Muff.

          Technically it is now one pedal

            I'm making this comment on the understanding that "fuzz" is different than distortion/OD. My fav is my EarthQuaker Devices Dream Crusher. If "sweet" and "fuzz" can be used in the same sentence, this is it. It's a true germanium transistor fuzz, complete with a bias set pot. I haven't messed with the bias because it was good-to-go right out of the box. It's fuzz, but no angry bee's syndrome. Roll your guitars' tone control back and you have classic "woman tone." I love it.

            Honorable mention goes to the BBE Windowpane. There's some overlap here, but the BBE fuzz knob continues on after the Dream Crusher max's out. Just to remind myself, I fed one into the other. Twin son's of different mothers. I believe this is my "keeper" fuzz combo.

              Also mention that the Ratt is probably the original pedal (and probably still the best) at covering some of all 3 (Distortion, OD, and Fuzz) in one pedal because of it's original and perhaps unintended circuit design . -sure there are pedals that have combined OD, Fuzz, and Distortion circuits into one pedal, but not one circuit like the Ratt that does them all without discrete purposeful circuits and so simply. -or at least I can't think of one.

                I had an original Rat a long time ago, and then got rid of it for some reason. I need to snag another. Or, is there a good Rat clone?

                  There's several good ones I hear -Of course real ones are easy to get too.

                  This one gets great reviews

                    Loads out there, Artie. JAM pedals The Rattler sounds really good on That Pedal Show. I have a BYOC L’il Mouse and it does everything I need in the Rat department [emoji1]

                        I have a rat clone built from the Tayda PC. It is pretty awesome. I'm in the process of modifying the gain pot for less overall gain - it gets into fuzz territory around 1 o'clock.

                          Although I also like the Dunlop Hendrix a lot too. Special Muff shoutout to the Earthbound Supercolider.

                          i love that pic. ive always wanted an old sunlion but since i have a rangemaster clone built buy a friend and the reddot sunface, it seems redundant

                            I'd chime in but I haven't played Spirit-in-the-Sky or Inna-Godda-Da-Vida for 35 - 40 years
