or if you are looking for more lo fi, i think the TP does a good job at really trashy OD

Rat > Muff is my favorite combo! Hands down...


Also, I'd check out this guy:

Seems to have that fuzz (with clarity) thing going on. It's top notch build quality as well. They're $150.

I also vote Rat.
Rat>Shoegazer.= pyur buhtseks....it's like a doomsday device where you exponentially increase the number of women you impregnate with each footswitch, until the world ends.

308 Rats have gotten stupid expensive, but 308 Turbo Rats are still cheap. They're the same thing except for a diode or something.

+1 for TAFM...not the fuzziest of fuzzes, but it does lower-gain stuff very nicely and at high-gain settings, the clean blend allows you to dial in the perfect amount of clean(ish) tone so you can have the gain all the way up and still have transparency.

also, as PP mentioned, the US can give you nasty velcro fuzz with a surprising amount of transparency when the texture knob is to the left.

newer TAFM has an extra built in boost for more gain now, too! ...fwiw

Hurry up and get the SD finished..I want one.

Astrotone / Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx
Analogman is even making a clone now.
Light, airy fuzz.

the bjfe folk fuzz I built was very loose and worked great for chords, had this nice blur to it but was super dynamic and maintained chord clarity, surprisingly dreamy
