That's the one I've heard about. Are there any others?
Anyone had any experience with OLC? I've a couple of bad stories about them, but maybe I've just had bad luck..

I don't know about clones of it, but with google and some soldering skills you can build your own clone..

Thread resurrection!

The OLC Chunky Cheese is one of my favorite fuzz pedals.

Hah, I was wondering if I should have worded it differently

I got one of those OLC clones after some piece of shit stole my beloved lovetone BC.

Did the job fine, but for some reason I got more into different types of fuzz, so I flipped it.

Apparently, I created this thread a few years ago, managed to get my hands on a real Big Cheese, kept if for a while, sold it (cause I needed the money) but later really felt I missed the cheese in my life. So I turned to Ian (Gigahearts_Fx) who built me one of his Mecha Fetas and I absolutely love it. Sound excellent, costs a lot less, less time consuming to find and saves up soo much pedalboard space. Obviously haven't tried the OLC version, but don't think I ever will now. Very happy with my Mecha Feta. Highly recommended (in case I didn't make that clear! =D )!
