Members jorhay1 Posted April 12, 2017 Members Share Posted April 12, 2017 Smitty and Reuss $150 range. The Gibson remakes are around for a couple of bills. But there are so many vintage units around, and some as low as 5 bills. I would consider popping for a vintage one if I ever got the taste for that nastyness. For the few times I ever need a psychedelic fuzz, (almost never) a buzzrite, boss tone type or merkin, fuzzbrite, or even satisfaction is close enough for me. My Merkin almost never sees any sunlight ...........(that was bad. sorry!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members evets618 Posted April 24, 2017 Members Share Posted April 24, 2017 Boss FZ-5. Three... Three... Three fuzzes in one. Silicon Fuzz Face, Maestro FZ-1, and Octavia.The Fuzz Face and FZ-1 sound best when the "Fuzz" knob is cranked to 3 o'clock and above (pretty normal), but the Octavia is best when it's set much lower, about 9 o'clock. Above 9, it gets quickly real saturated and the octave effect disappears. Like the original, it works best above the 12th fret with a classic "woman tone", i.e., neck pickup/tone rolled off. Nails the solo tone in "Purple Haze". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
