It's also mentioned there, so It should be cool, although I never tried one.

Re: muff fuzz for....
good stoner sounds are up to you surely. Strats were for country players until Hendrix showed how to rock em proper.
I think the 'queens of the stone age are big fuzz heads', lovely! If you liked it, get it, you'll find a home for the sound.

This thing !

They do not make 'em any more.
This Fuzz, is just bloody BRUTAL - fullstop !
Turn my Big Muff 660degrees clockwise, and you are not even close to where this mutha starts !
Jimi Hendrix, yeah, right !
As you can see, this one is called the " FUZZ UNIT ".
It really scares me !
See if you can get one from eBay !

Are you talking about those little EH Muff Fuzz units? Nifty little things. I had one years ago, but it kept on breaking.

Lemme guess...the battery wires would break off the pc board?:smack:
I repaired mine so many times. I remember buying it mail order for $15...I just happened to see a used one on ebay sold for $75. Haa Haa! The Muff Fuzz for what it was, was a better pedal than the Big Muff.
Back on Topic: The wide range of stoner (it is a tribe, not just a sound) "fuzz" tones ranges from mild and gritty (The Stones "Satisfaction")...to thick and Big Muff creamy...to piercing buzz-saw (The Stooges).
IMHO, this pedal can do it all and it has an octaver too for a $150 street price (second pedal down the page):

I sound like a broken record when it comes to this pedal, but this is the only OD/DIST/FUZZ pedal I really have enjoyed since I bought my Boss SD-1 around 1981! I could have bought a Big Muff, but I grew tired of the noise decades ago when trying friends' pedals. Muffled and noisy is not a good combo to my ears.

The original Muff Fuzz is a really neat little high compression/noisy one-trick-pony, but it is not, and was not intended to be "The Best" .
