Best value: Poor
Well, as the name suggests is a factory Fuzz, so it's a fuzz that can provide thousands of different colors and sounds ...
It's analog, it's craft, that transistors ...
next editions, yeah, it's even the highlight of the machine (or the weak point as it will) ...
Simply connect a jack input, an output jack ... nothing to tread a neuron that side.
It's a pedal enough space, it is made of handcrafted and decorated well. As a result, no two similar models or on the decor or the sound ...

UTILIZATION

Configuring crazy! It really is a beast to make a sound, not just a pedal ... it works much like the analog synths of yesteryear ... The most complex is that it affects a knob, all other config change ... impossible to find a sound if not by accident with that thing ... obviously there are presets on the manufacturer's website, but the fun thing is to make its own sound ... and it is not easy easy!

SOUND QUALITY

Then, I must admit having heard very little Fuzz also have a special sound and friendly ... on this side and the understanding that once the crackling, hissing and other buzzzz the part of the sound of the box, you can really have fun ...
I am the main branch on my Les Paul and my Triple XXX, sometimes I put the whammy ahead to make more noise ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few days, I like the system of "I make my fuzz," I do not exaggerate the price for a single germanium fuzz which was added an external bias (hee yes is nothing else), I do not like the gate that closes too quickly and cut the notes in delirium ...
I tried several Fuzz (hand made, Dunlop, Electro Harmonix ...) but none had the system fun to make weird sounds ...
So getting back to the price, it is exaggerated, even highly exaggerated! We should be able to make a fuzz house that will have the same capacity for € 50 ... short, apart from being a fan of muse and wanting to pay for all the stuff from Bell (good luck) or take the offer (like me), forget it! It's too expensive for what it is!
Question choice, I would not change my big muff for any Zvex the world, but it was nice to try this toy ...
