i am hoarding OD/fuzz pedals

I've managed to curb back. At one point I had over 30 pedals.

Danelectro French Toast.
Danelectro Mini-Amp pedal (a distortion when plugged in)
Wasabi Distortion.
EHX Holy Stain.

That's about it. I actually don't really have many distortions at all.

Old black Marshall Guv'nor

mmm, I have a real problem with fuzz collecting, so much so that I had to start making my own... because I can't afford to buy them.

built a fuzzrite the other day.

I has

TS7
Little Big Muff (formerly of robOG)
French Toast
Dano Peach Fuzz
Dist + (atari style)
Rockson Super Overdrive (SD-1 clone)
homemade fuzzface

overdrive pedals are pretty much the most useful pedals you can have.

I've tried a few different flavours but currently I've kept these around.

MBM OCD/DLS combo
MBM Sunface Fuzz
MBM Bluesberry Hotcake (freaks out on higher gains but low gain is great)
LPB-1
Metlal Zone

the OCD/DLS keeps me satisfied for gigging but I keep looking at all if the awesome dirt boxes that Brian Wompler makes. Everything from his AC30 type pedal to the tripple wreck and the Marshall type pedals and even a Dumble sounding one. It's addicting but my pocketbook tries to keep me in check.

i used to have a metalzone, used it on bass, i sold it but sometimes i miss it, the sound of it and the whole story why i got it is such nostalgia toon it's too 'well lined' and sterile sounding for guitar to my taste but i would get one again if i had money to spare, just for the sake of it, but mainly bass use.

still searching for the ulitmate fuzz, blackout effecotrs musket seems to be pretty much what i need right now, crush the button was out of stock and offered me that double pedal but it's so exspensive so in a way i'm glad i didn't buy it if it was in stock. though still lusting after it.

still need to check big muff with tone wicker but i'd rather have knobs than switches, sensitive knobs, much more versatility than switches.

well my count at the moment is 4:

Dano TOD (used as a boost primarily)
MBM DLS
MBM GreenMuff
Homemade FuzzFace

I have been eyeing up a few of the catalinbread pedals especially the new Formula 5

Only three at the moment, with one more on the way.

MXR GT-OD
Effector13 2ADD
Danelectro Black Liquorice
Dwarfcraft Shiva (on it's way)

Not too bad, I suppose. But I also have at least that many more which I'd happily buy if I had the money.

the rat and mxr dist + I have are more than enough OD for me, I wonder why I keep picking up more, I mean yes on recordings a subtle difference in OD tone is cool here and there. I just don't know if the extra 7 fuzzes are worth holding onto

Of couse not. Therefore I'll take them off your hands for $20.

stewart · Post by **stewart** » Wed Apr 14, 2010 4:35 pm

um.. just realised i have quite a few dirt pedals too.

ibanez TS-5
dano TOD
dano peach fuzz thingy
green sovtek big muff wot mike built
fulltone OCD wot mike also built
EHX NY big muff
fulltone distortion pro
zvex fuzz factory
dwarfcraft great destroyer
behringer blues driver thingy
and a cheap distortion made by a company called frontline that sounds a bit like a DS-1.

Tim, what is this Utility Perk you are referring to?

My "board" is two RATs and a Boss tuner, however I also own and use a Behringer Acoustic sim and their SansAmp clone pedals for bedroom practice.

I used to build pedals and have built so many variant dirt boxes that just reused the same box housing as I was kinda broke with that hobby, and I scavenged circuits for parts for other ones. I don't really have any of them now. I recently found 4 different unhoused circuit boards for dirt boxes but some are missing parts and others have bad solder joints. I keep meaning to get the original Pungent Buzz circuit housed again as that was my favorite custom design.

I've been thinking about a new Distortion pedal recently, though.

It's a harmonic perc that he's done something strange too. Last time I asked him about it, he said if I already had a harmonic perc, the util perc isn't much worth it. I think it's a bit harsher distortion maybe?

rofl

I would want to keep the weirdest one whcih is a boss 80's bass distortion, it is capable of PURE EVIL

ends: Did you every buy the Behringer ODN clone? I remember you talking about it.

I ordered one, and then it didn't come for 4 weeks. When I contactyed the shop they were like, "oops, we're out of stock."

They sent me my money back and I still haven't reordered the damn thing. They're such a pain to get hold of for some reason. I had a good line on a real Boss one, but that also fell through. It's pretty annoying, considering how much I want it.

Argh, nightmare. I bought mine basically on a whim because I knew how good the Boss version was, I had Â£25 going spare, and I was going into town anyway.
