I don't know if I'll need to pick up an electric guitar ever again.

I'm thinking of sending it to this fellow:
http://spunkytoofers.com/hottopic/?p=19

But I still have to contact him.


Also, what fuzz should I run this bad boy through? I went down to just my fuck trying to get all minimalistic with my guitar rig, but now I want some more so I can do some sick shit. Devi fuzz would probably work well with synths, any other recommendations?

I've been considering taking a walk over to that side lately. Get some gnarly sounding analog synth I can run through my rig.

I was going to say TAFM too!
I also like using my HM-2 copy with synths. It's more in the "cheap industrial distortion" area as opposed to "wafers of fuzzy ethereal synth" though.

I'm not really a fan of that squelchy oscillation, so I think the 4545 would be out.
& the Disaster Fuzz's oscillation was just OK when I had one.

Test Pattern would be sexy, though.
Or maybe I could get my hands on that TBGD....

My standard synth rig right now is Nord Lead 2 => Devi Ever Aenima

Crunchy raucous awesomeness.

Hrm, it's probably a pedal I'd have to get my hands on rather than just watch demos to get a good impression of.

Also, quick lil' diddy.

I loved my yr4545, but after playing with it I found the demo vids to be kindof misleading, because it wasn't terribly squelchy, but it was a lot of fun.

I love running this combo synth>delay/reverb>Wolf Computer (set to maximimum glitchiness). The note your playing fights with the note being sustained by the delay for the right to be the pitch the wolf computer chooses. The result is glitchy fuzzy chaos of the best kind. Another fav of mine for keys is the melx fuzz. It has just the right balance of clarity and fuzz.

Wolf CPU is a solid suggestion, forgot about that one.
I'm thinking one or two versitile fuzzies for texture and another to make it sound big and huge (Black Forest?)

What amp are you running all this through?
i have been thinking of running my CZ-1 into a board and amp but currently I just run it into a carvin acoustic combo.
