I'm going to end up with one of these, eventually, and be rocking the HEAVYZ with it at folk rock festivals. You just wait.

That's awesome.
What's crazy is I got #69 the first week of February. That's 200 Pharaohs in the last 75 days.....no wonder he doesn't post here anymore.

I though you had a black and a purple one? That's three Pharaoh.
Have you tried to boost your first Pharoah with the second... probably sound cool :cool:

Sold the black actually, just have the purple and blue. I have run two Pharaohs and it sounds insane, like a bigger, nastier version of a single Pharaoh. What sounds better, IMO, is to hit the Pharaoh with a nastier, higher frequency fuzz. Since the thick, fuzzy lows are totally preserved by the Pharaoh, adding something different to it results in some of the heaviest tones I've heard. The Algal Bloom into Pharaoh is pure fuzz bliss!

Mark is finishing up his new pedal right now, heard some clips last night, it sounds really bad ass. He ran it into a Pharaoh for a portion of the clip, which resulted in some super creamy, super heavy tones, I'm excited to get my hands on one and try it out.

That's about it, I'm deep into the 300's now.

I haven't forgotten you guys, I just haven't had a spare moment to do much of anything but build lately. Spreading the fuzz is a laborious endeavor.

I love it. :group:

Right now I'm stacking it with a SuperCollider and it's pretty awesome. Like Mauerkraut said "It's the fuzz I've been hearing in my head". :joy:

Tip:
STEP 1) Using the high gain/silicon options set the Pharaoh's Phuzz on 0 and adjust volume and EQ to taste.
STEP 2) Put your other favorite fuzz in front of it with the volume and gain near maxed and EQ to taste.
STEP 3) Play guitar.
STEP 4) Change pants/Phone a friend.
STEP 5) Play some more.

Love at first fuzz...

I like that. That would look good on a t shirt. Can I use it?
