I've got gas for a new obnoxious noise maker. I've had a couple ovtavio type and whammy pedals and a boss oc-2... I want a knarly, nasty fuzzy octave that will work with buckers... Begin!

Fulltone Octafuzz is the one that I am using. I like it, both the octave and the regular mode.

MXR Bluebox


Crazy? Very check.

Works with 'buckers? Check.
 
Re: Recomend a crazy octave fuzz for humbuckers

I would check out the MXR Slash Octave Fuzz. Designed with humbuggies in mind.

VFE Fuzz Cocktail. Octave Up, based on Fender Blender.

It's not cool or boutique, but I think the Visual Sound Angry Fuzz is a lot of fun, and works well with buckers. I have a little Angry Fuzz demo song I started but never finished, let me see if I can find it...nope...

Still, it's a fun pedal.

Octave UP . . . or DOWN ?

I really like my ZVex Mastotron . . . but that one gives me a HUGE octave DOWN low end rumble !

Then there is also MXR's Blue Box !

I'm mostly thinking octave up, but not written in stone or anything. Just want the most obnoxious (but usable lol) nasty octave exploding fuzz out there. The gonkulator looks fun hahaha.

Earthquaker Devices Bit Commander and Death By Audio Octave Clang are pretty wicked sounding.

I had a Catalinbread Perseus. It does both one octave and two. Very obnoxious, strong gate. You gotta roll off tone and use the neck pickup, also don't run a buffered pedal into it. But it was pretty cool with a wah and also with overdrive after it. I got rid of mine to save pedalboard space and i couldn't really find a use for it, but it was fun to play around with.
 
Re: Recomend a crazy octave fuzz for humbuckers

Ordered an Ultimate Octave. Listened to some bands and found out it's EXACTLY what I was looking for... Will report soon. Hopefully starting a Vlog on youtube soon geared towards fuzz's od's into OVERDRIVEN amps here soon. Lot's of demos of pedals into clean amps, but few good ones show casing with high chunky gain!

Nice! I'm sure you will like. There's quite a bit of Ultimate Octave guitars on my latest album ... sounds MASSIVE.
