Re: Unique/Odd Fuzz
I would personally try out The Great Destroyer. Prepare for most other fuzzes to seem tame after trying it, though.

Re: Unique/Odd Fuzz
This man knows. I have mine set up for 3 stages basically. By itself, its extremely heavily gated, almost 8 bit sounding, with no note decay at all. I run my Fuck Mountain before it, and when I hit the Mini side, it gets more sustain but still really gated and sputtery. Then I hit it with the higher gain Mountain side and it turns into a weapon of mass destruction.jamesmikelly wrote:Posting to say I love my unpleasant surprise and I'm really happy no one bought it a month ago because it's a staple of my bass rig now. It can do anything from sputtery "bad" stuff to just being a fantastic, nearly traditional sounding distortion pedal. All with 2 knobs, 3 switches, and a smaller enclosure than some packs of gum. Also, I'm not huge on running it before dirt but if you really slam it with a dirt before (I love a Rat into it) it becomes a house shaker.
Or if I want to simplify, I just turn the onset up a bit to get something like the second stage, then hit it with the Mini to bring the roar.
This is the first fuzz I ever had GAS over, and I've still never tried one.theavondon wrote:I would personally try out The Great Destroyer. Prepare for most other fuzzes to seem tame after trying it, though.

This thread is kinda selling me on an unpleasant surprise
Is there anyone with a peace gun that cares to chime in?

Re: Unique/Odd Fuzz
The Inafem/Acid Splash square wave generator sounds really neat. Not the most diverse pedal in the world, but it smashes nerds and stacks really well.
