Please take a seat cause this pedal slays and melts faces! Ultra versatile, tons of lowend (of course) and endless sustain with synth like controls.
Its a unique and by far the extremest take on a Doom Fuzz i have ever heard!
Definitely not everybodys cup of tea but worth throwing a parade for all those doom and sludge heads...
I still have to come up with some even more downtuned clips but didnt had the time but here is the first clip

From another thread:
http://www.ilovefuzz.com/viewtopic.php?f=149&t=17923&p=272839#p272777I figured I'd quote it here as it is relevant in this thread too.

If you set the Megaliths tone stack like this: Slope all the way CCW, Notch all CW, Notch Shift should then make no difference but I had it set to 1, then dial back the input gain according to your Pickups (it was at 9 o'clock with HB and around 10 or 11 o'clock with SC) both pedals will sound and behave exactly the same. Guitar knob sensitivity and all the mumbo-jumbo. Just in case anyone was trying to decide which one to get.
Both can sound the same, the Megalith has a plethora of controls, the Meathead is really straightforward. I guess it's a matter of taste.
Thanks for posting this.
The input gain is the key to getting more subtle tones and textures.
It seems most people think the Megalith is just an all or nothing doombringer.
Once you figure out the controls and how they interact with each other there are a lot of possibilities.
