i've always considered Red Witch to be obnoxiously overpriced. i feel the same way about Z-Vex. that being said, i'd go with the ab-synth if i was you. tom makes a great pedal, and he's a great guy too. i've got an algal bloom which i'm convinced is capable of every fuzz sound i could possibly want.

I second this, over if you want moar over the top fuzz, maybe something devi ever, like the soda meiser or hyperion? other than that, try the blackout effectors crystal dagger, such a sick sound outta that thing.

Yup.


Yup.

Also +1 on TAFM or smallsound/bigsound Year 4545 (there's definitely tons of crazy oscillation options in that one!).


Honestly the Ab-synth is the Fuzz Factory killer. Does everything better.

I have a friend that uses a fuzz god II, and though it sounds nice, I don't think it's quite worth the price.

AB-Synth is WAY heavier and crazier, too. :animal: Easier to handle and to operate onstage too. A full featured version can be custom ordered in small enclosure, too, if Your pedalboard is already crammed. Doesn't cost half its worth. And Tom is happy to do custom artwork too, for next to nothing.

ALSO: You noticed the Pocket Arcade?

Good choice.

Here's his dealer in Paris. As far as I know, he doesn't have one in England.

On another note, I found a really good demo of the fairfield four eyes fuzz, if I had an expression pedal, ENDLESS EARGASM. But I'll let the piggy bank build up for that one. And for some other pedals ^_^ Thanks everyone for everything. It seems like I'll have to order it from PGS, but I will make sure to contact Tom about artwork and shipping costs. You guys own! :)
