well,
Its a 3-way switch that goes between Silicon, Germanium and No clipping diodes which allows for a ton of variation in sound.
The 2 knobs on the back are Gain and a really cool Tone control that actually acts like more of a bias than your regular lowpass filter.
The gain control is very friendly and it seems like a totally different fuzz from one end of the knob to the other.
The knob on the top is volume. When the clipping diodes are removed via the switch IT GETS LOUD!!! so its nice to be able to pull it back a bit.

here's a thread on the DAM forum when John finished the pedal for me:

.... and I wasn't looking for a new fuzz at all... but this really caught my interest.

Last question: can it get a lot more splattey and velcro then the demo mp3?

yes!
with the germanium diodes switched on and the gain all the way up + your guitar's volume down a bit it can get pretty raunchy.
It retains lowend really well too, which is hard to find on 60s-type fuzzes.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this pedal if I didn't love it.
with the right amp this thing kills, and its hard to find a fuzz that is just as good one chords as it is on solos.

I MUST KNOW MORE. Cost?
Can he do it in a smaller wedge enclosure w/ top mounted jacks?

the pseudo snakeskin enclosure is a nice touch too! haha

I've been trying to find that thread on the DAM board for like a month!!!! That thing looks and sounds amazing.

Yeah John can do any enclosure you'd like.
I just wanted that weird textured paint job on mine because I like zombies...

Ican't remember the exact cost because he did a few different things for me that time, but I want to say it was around $150?
definitely reasonable and well worth it.

This was the first fuzz that popped in my mind. I love the splattiness you can get from the Fix'd. I also really like the EQD Dirt Transmitter for those kinds of tones.

I finally sent my Neo Fuzz out for repairs, and I got it back recently. Some of these suggestions have been very good, but I am glad to have the Neo back. I think MI Audio is a bit of an underrated company. While some of these fuzzes may be just a splattey or a tiny bit splattier than the Neo Fuzz, the Neo has so much more flexibility. I recently purchased a new GI Fuzz (which is the silicon version of the Neo), and it is also super sick. If any of who have not, you should check out the neo fuzz video at proguitarshop.com.
