Best current Fuzzrite clone ?

Post by Kojak the Ripper »

Hi, i'm back.

What clone of the Mosrite Fuzzrite does exist today, which does perfectly match the sound & specs of the original (no led, only battery etc) ?

Please don't list all existing clones, even if they sound GREAT; there are many, but not sure if any REALLY sound like the Mosrite.

I have seen that one. Looks fine. But germanium. True i did not mention i was interested in silicon. I might get tempted though. Not the In-a-gadda-da-vida tone, but probably a nice tone however.

i was going to recommend the Catalinbread germanium and silicon Fuzzrites which are made under license from the Moseley family, but then i re-read and saw the strict constructionist approach..

precisely. the germanium is way gnarlier.

Hey, you could give the EQD Fuzz Master General or the JHS Pedals Smiley a shot. People say they really nail that vintage Mosrite vibe.
