I don't know if we've talked about it, but I listened to a couple minutes of the JustNick video and thought it sounded great.friendship wrote:sounds pretty cool from the internet videos.

The pedal sounds pretty great though, doesn't look like they're available yet from a quick google?

Does sound awesome. I Googled and got this gearmandude demo, which also sounds very cool. Nice almost synthy sounds in there:

Re: have we talked about the z vex fuzzolo?
So should a person find a used Mastotron or buy a new Fuzzolo? Seems like the tones are pretty good but are people interested in it because it's a new pedal or because it offers a different sound or because it's small?

Re: have we talked about the z vex fuzzolo?
That's a good question. I'm seeing a price of $130 on this, but isn't the Mastortron only $150? I like how versatile it sounds for how simple the design is, but you're losing a lot of potentially useful features (treble, sub) the Mastortron has for not that much in savings.

Re: have we talked about the z vex fuzzolo?
Is this a small version of the Mastotron?

Re: have we talked about the z vex fuzzolo?
Sounds great, it's tiny and it's got a picture of a snorting buffalo on it. What's not to want?
I actually like fuzz pedals with stripped-down controls, and while the "Pulse Width" control is the same as the Mastotron I'm not sure it's exactly the same circuit (although it might be - a couple of reports say it's "based around" the Wooly Mammoth and Mastotron). There's a little more info here: http://tonereport.com/reviews/zvex-fuzzolo

It's got an internal jumper for active pickups for bass players, too.The Zvex Fuzzolo is an exercise in restraint. During the design process, founder Zack Vex and engineer Joel Korte asked one very simple question: what can we live without? Tone and gain controls were eliminated and what’s left is a ripping little silicon fuzz with two knobs, loads of volume and a couple of very cool tricks up its sleeve. - See more at: http://tonereport.com/reviews/zvex-fuzz ... qDS9c.dpuf

Re: have we talked about the z vex fuzzolo?
I like it. It's splatty, synthy and it seems fairly easy to dial in a Velcro fuzz which is something I've been looking for. Def pulling the trigger if cash permits.

All the namm zvex stuff is interesting to me, especially the bigger more knob having fuzz factory.
