  Audiofanzine FR's review

  Characteristics

  (Originally written by casterbro/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
  
  Two controls (volume and intensity), two switches (bypass and chaos), Boss-type PSU or 9-volt battery operation.
  
  
  
  Superb finish!!! Great design by Myrold who moved from Zvex to OohLALA!

  Utilization

  Very easy to use but the possibilities are impressive!

  Sound Quality

  This small box can do anything! From classic fuzz effect to crazy sound landscapes (like the same manufacturer's Truly Beautiful Disaster). It's the best fuzz pedal I own, together with my Fuzz War from Death by Audio and my Shiva from Dwarfcraft (I own over 30 fuzz pedals). It's even better than a Fuzz Factory.
  
  
  
  The only con is the price, which is very high for such a simple fuzz pedal but it is worth it. It goes for the same price as a Synth Mangler or a Truly Beautiful Disaster but it's a better investment... However you must own them all because they are all different!

  Overall Opinion

  I strongly recommend this pedal because I like everything about it. I fell in love with the looks and then with the sound. What a sound! Just try it and you'll want it. If it gets stolen... it's not a big deal, I've got two!

  Jumikael's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " My favorite fuzz"

  Characteristics

  A solid analog fuzz, pretty simple.

  Utilization

  Ultra simple. Switch on / off, max gain switch or not, a switch to activate the "chaos", 2 knobs: volule and gain.

  Sound Quality

  Great fun, great personality, like a Big Muff. It's supposed to approach the sound of the Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream, and it gets there pretty well.
  
  A fuzz enough "gated". We can leave the heavy riffs, and chord power chords or a little roller. When you go up the gain the sound is more dynamic, but MS seems to be useless in agreements. The solution is to fall at that time the volume of the guitar (or so you have to touch the strings) for the agreements, and then reassembles for solos.
  
  In version OohLaLa a switch to activate foot gain in depth anyway:)
  
  
  
  The little switch to activate the chaos is ... anecdotal. In itself, it can be great, but difficult to use, so it's more for the experiments, noisy environments ...

  Overall Opinion

  Every time I came back to her, and the third is that I have (also very happy to have him in this beautiful version). I'm quite a fan at the base of Big Muff, but it fills me SM.
  
  
  
  I remember that the tester in Premier Guitar said it was the best he ever played fuzz. And he gave it 5 / 5 and the price of the magazine. But I think we love, or hate it, but it will not please everyone, and everyone did not say this is the best fuzz in the world.
