Thanks.

I've a good couple contenstants I'm keeping my eyes open for. Like I mensioned, 90% of the boutique brands that were mensioned aren't easy to come by on the used marked here in the EU. So that kinda limits my options. This isn't a "I've got studio time booked and my toan also needs this pedlol for my upcoming worldwide tour" sorta thing. Don't even have a band anymore, I'm just into living room solo noise making these days. Just saying I've got time on my side, the right pedal will come along sooner or later :)

Redoing my pedalboard right now. Running out of solder and velcro, and I also noticed I've got board space left for more than just one fuzz pedal :excellent:

Nah, used to have one. Too noisy and unpredictable. If I'd go the zvex route again, I might give the mastotron a second chance, or maybe try a fuzzolo or a Wolly Mammoth.

I can actually get by if I "choke" my Harmonic Percolator (clone) with a Big Muff. Makes it sputter and spit, it'll do the job until I make up my mind about something to maybe replace both the muff and the hp.

I loves me Fuzzolo!! I've also noticed that it reacts differently depending on where its placed in the chain.
