function f(x) Clusterfuzz / Third Rail [ongoing reviews]

[culturejam]

I'm also not surprised he didn't get into any of the alternate bypass switching modes. Way too technical for a GMD demo. And that's just fine.

[Chankgeez]

It does sound great in the limited application he used in it. That's not at all how I'd use it though.

[Dungus]

Very happy to have found this pedal. A special new fuzz that genuinely feels like something new. I'm going to buy the crap out of its face!

[D.o.S.]

it can do witch. That's basically the only endorsement any pedal needs ever.

[Chankgeez]

Yeah, whenever anyone ever demos a pedal with that Witch lick, makes me an instant fan.

Andy sounds grear using that Clusterfuzz with the Les Paul. Kinda makes me want a guitar with humbuckers.

I loved this when I borrowed it from Chanks. The fact that I could set it where it was fairly clear when I played light and then when I dug in it would get more squarewave-y and gnarly.

I want 2 of them. One for the cleanest sounds and one for the extra dirty ones.

[Chankgeez]

I still wanna check out The Third Rail. Overdrives generally aren't my thing, but The Third Rail demos do sound good. Also wanna try any other pedals Function comes out with.

The Clusterfuzz sounds amazing into a Green Ringer.

[neonblack]

Third Rail and Clusterfuzz would make a mighty powerful dirt section.

[Chankgeez]

True.^

Just found this, this guy shreds:

^^ Dude emailed me the link last night. He's pretty damn good. I love the wah tones he does around 5 minutes.

[Chankgeez]

Yeah, I saw your comment on that vid. The wah tones are pretty fantastic. I was kinda surprised when I heard 'em.

[BoatRich]

Those wah tones are rad, more reminiscent of a synth filter sweep than a standard wah pedal sound.

[Chankgeez]

Turns out it's a Crybaby 535Q. Not too shabby.

I'm gonna have to try playing the Clusterfuzz with a wah. Haven't tried that yet.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I have a couple "b-stock" Clusterfuzz units on hand right now. They are brand new and carry full warranty. The issue is related to the finish not being perfect (like a bubble in the powdercoat or similar). Frankly, I couldn't even tell that one of them had any issues at all. Our man Pickdropper is one hell of a picky guy on this kind of thing.

Shoot me a PM if you want one. They are $20 off retail and come with extra FFX swag in the box.

He should change his name to "Pickydropper".
