Analog fuzz stupid ... input, output, battery compartment and plug.
UTILIZATION
We can no longer simple: level, tone, sustain and switch on / off. Sustain the dose rate of fuzz in the sound. The pedal does not look too fragile.
SOUND QUALITY
I too used to the fuzz, but with this pedal, you can not inject a little effect. It is radical and even with the sustain at 0, impossible to color slightly. At 8am, the sustain makes an attack rather "harsh". I do not know if all the fuzz do but it's as if the pedal did not care whether the incoming signal is weak or not, she does everything at the same level, the dynamic game is reduced and forget the wah coupled to the fuzz. The tone can mute or "clarify" the sound, which can give cool stuff. There is not an infinite number of sounds but the grain (and that's what matters!) Is simply stunning for this price (less than 40 euros on ebay).
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 months and I still enjoy his grain. on the other hand, beware of buzz in the bass, especially if you have no power supply. dedicated (garland fans you have been warned!) and is better placed at the beginning of the string. Control rate of more progressive fuzz (a little less pronounced than 0) would make this effect pedal a must, especially for the price.
Tested with a copy ES335 (humbuckers), es175 copy (seymour duncan phat cat) and a violin bass Hofner CT Series. With the bass that the effect is more efficient!
Value for money 8 / 10 because it's really cheap but there's not much choice in sound levels. Love the grain is better
