Blue box. Great for laying down lead lines that sound FAT. Harmonize that shit too and you got yourself the fattest harmonies since Adele and Aretha Franklin. BAM

Indeed! I normally don't like my fuzzes on that distortion-y side, but that thing rips.

Re: Underrated "Vintage" fuzz pedals?
after watching that tonefiend video with the 12 clones...
really intrigued by the selmer buzz tone and the orpheum fuzz. i havent tried either.
the bias control on the buzzaround is a really cool feature. my fuzzface clone has that. i think i can get pretty close to those sickly wimpy weird tones from the video with the fuzz face and bias

oh also, I agree the Jordan Bosstone sounds really cool. At least, the Voodoo Lab Super Fuzz is pretty awesome, which is basically a Bosstone with a bass and midrange knob.

Re: Underrated "Vintage" fuzz pedals?
i have seen a maestro that is very aesthetically similar to that moog style design
with the aluminum in the middle and black on the sides
but i want to say it was more elongated
when i was just starting out, guy with a music store had one, and he cherished that damn thing
i know it was a maestro fuzz of some type, it had to be from that same era
with the aluminum in the middle and black on the sides
but i want to say it was more elongated
