They removed the clean boost. WTF.

Yeah, I don't know where they got off with that! A lot of players love that mode.

What D.o.S. said.

I love it and it never leaves my board.

Cheap, too.

Basically if you're looking for sonic oblivion it's a great.

If you don't like it, it's usually because it was too much for your sound.

Chords do not play nice, they just come out like giant distorted bass blobs.

For very simple powerchords it's Electric Wizard in a box, yeah.

Like listen to "Funeralopolis" and that's what you're gonna get.

Dude I turned on the radio yesterday, Sabb's Into the Void was finishing, the Wizard was straight after it. Reminded me that if you fuzz and do so heavily, you need one.

Yeah what?

This thread confirms that this is the year I'll get an FZ-2

I haven't had tones of fuzz pedals but I've had my fair share and its one of the few I found that sounds good both at home at lower volumes but also with a loud amp. I often found fuzzes to sound great at home and then not be as good loud. FZ-2 sounds really good through a cranked amp.

The boost is harass and I was doing a lot of A/B of my clean channel with the fz-2 boost versus my gain channels. Fz-2 push an amp beautifully.

Fuzz Mode 1 is my favorite

But guys it has clean blend! And foot switchable 1/2 mode!

No, I thought it was odd too :shrug:

I know a lot of people who are really into Abominal, but when they referred to germ diodes (assuming 1N34As) as "Klon Diodes" they completely lost me.

The kicker is that they are using Klon in comparison to a Hyper Fuzz. What the fuck.

2016 is the year my ILF-elitism hits full effect.

It's not elitism dude, it's just being informed.
That's a stupid thing to say and a stupid comparison to make.
I would bank my house on the fact that the overlap between the demographics "klon" lovers and "FZ2 lovers" is probably just Chank.

Agreed
And that last bit

I like the FZ-2 and I've been using my DIY Klone since I boxed it up. I mean I but I for kicks, and wound up loving it. That buffer is actually awesome. I am the person that they might be trying to appeal to, and now I just hate that company. I mean what's wrong with just saying "selectable silicon or germanium diodes". I mean, that sounds cool, more features, more options, yeah! Vs "insane murder fuzz mode or Klon mode". It's the strangest use of a buzzword I've seen in a pedal description.

If you were a real fuckboy you could sell a bunch of Klones to blues lawyers but secretly replace the guts with FZ-2 guts before you ship them

"Well, this isn't dynamic and transparent at all! Hm... HONEY, I THINK I'VE GONE STONER!"

I just joined the klon club, picked up an ARC Klone. Needed somthing to push my Rat. Also own two FZ-2's that I love. I'm digging the klone with bass boost into some of my nastier fuzzes. Can also add me to the few and the proud Klon+FZ-2 abuser list, although I don't necessarily like stacking the two.

Don't you wish you could change your FZ-2's diodes to make it sound like a Klon?

"I didn't have time before my gig to test it out so when I got to church I just set the knobs and once I turned it on the first time there wasn't a dry vagina in the house"

An FZ-2 thread turning into a Klon thread.
