Agreed, I've stumbeled on several VTF settings that sound like your amp/cab are being molested, in a good way of course.

Not really hearing it in this video, but thanks you for the clip cool band. The VTF sounds pretty cool, but Im not sure thats it either lol... The video definitely rocks [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdZ0zp_GTQM[/youtube] I like the idea of that dwarfcraft od into the muff... ill have to check into that... I feel like it might be an OD into a muff sound that im looking for.

maybe im looking for an octave fuzz... these ones sound ridiculous! except ive had bad luck with octave fuzzes retaining the higher string articulation.

none really.. closest was a mastotron... im thinking about getting a ECT and running some sort of boost infront like a box of rock or something. As long as the Eau Claire can get some classic green muff tones... Im thinking the octave fuzz will be too much.

Sorry in the other post i meant to post a link from katanasounds effects.

i'm thinking Velcroar with the ROAR set to about 9:00-10:00. bass pickup with the tone control rolled off. there's a particular sweet spot where it sounds like someone's burning a copy of Live Rust inside your amplifier.
