Where do we stand on the Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz?

[Chistopher]

I recently got one at a real good price (relatively) after spending years making due with an SF300

Anyone else have one or thoughts about them?

I love the FZ-2!

I've played the original a few times, but can't justify the price they often go for now. Should've stocked up years ago!

The SF300 pulls off the sound, as you know, but the build quality is lacking.

I currently have a Magic Pedals "Witchfinder", a Peper's Pedals "Humongous Fuzz", and a PSHC FZ-2, which are all based on the Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz.

I've actually been bugging one of my favorite newer pedal builders, Moth Electric, to consider trying his hand at the FZ-2 circuit since I love his approach to pedal design and his aesthetic would look great in that distinctive silver/black flavor!

The FZ-2 is supposed to be based on the Univox Super Fuzz, isn't it? My favourite fuzz is also based on that circuit, which makes me think it's probably pretty awesome.

Don't stand on it. Just press the selector switch and step off. No reason to stay there. Turn it on and let your music and toanz be awesome.
