Fuzz Drive Generation 2

WOW- I have been searching and searching for what this pedal does- I didn't get it to sound like anyone but to try and get the sound in my head- I wanted a fuzz that would work while running into a high-gain amp (Laney GH100L) with high output humbuckers- Before it, I tried a muff, london fuzz, huckleberry and a couple more- all of them, great fuzzes but they didn't do what I wanted them to do or they fell into what happens when you put a fuzz in front of high-gain/high-output...either muddy up the signal or take over the amp- FINALLY found the FDG2 and it is everything I wanted, perfectly- What is awesome about it is that it is really transparent, it acts like an extension of your amp- it doesn't change or color your amp with it's own voice (like other pedals)- it just gives you a very nice "extension" of fuzz to your amp's tone- the only other pedal I could compare it to with this "transparent" characteristic is the Xotic RC Booster- I found that I can get sounds similar to the two top fuzz camps, muff and fuzz face from it...awesome- sound quality is just awesome, EXACTLY what I've been looking for- I've heard it works great with any overdrive pedals before it but I dig my amp's gain so I've just used it with that- no noisy at all- my main chain is hot-rodded Epi LP- Crybaby Wah- Everman FDG2- RC Booster- EH Nano Small Stone- Line 6 Verbzilla- Laney GH100L (Line 6 Echo Park in the loop)

nice, tough black box- quality switch and fancy looking as well- looking inside, I have to say I think it's the cleanest-built pedal I've ever seen- awesome-

First, WHAT A GREAT PEDAL!- ok, pretty easy I guess and on overall-ease-of-use and how the manual explains everything prety well, I'll give it an 8- It did take me a little tweaking to get it where I wanted it but considering that you have some nice options with the trim-pots, that's expected in order to really customize your sound- other than that, there's four knobs being bias, fuzz, drive and gain that'll get you what you want-

well, since it has the two trim-pots inside to customize your sound even more, I wanted more info on them and how they behaved- my emails were responded to quickly and with all the info I needed- great customer service-

I play heavy, stoner rock but touch on everything else when the mood hits- been playing for awhile and have more recently been into the subtlety of tone, so I been experimenting with lots of stuff to get the sound I really want- again, this pedal is everything I wanted...just perfect- I would definitely replace it if it were stolen or lost...it will be on my board forever- It would be nice if an LED was standard (it's an add-on feature) because you can set the pedal to be very subtle and through a high-gain amp, it can be difficult to know if it's on or off...of course, an LED would fix that- other than that, it is perfect for me- Thanks J.Everman for such a great pedal!

ya know, i always see these getting passed around on the seller's forum, and i gotta tell ya, yer all IDIOTZ fer gettin' rid of 'em! this pedal is bloody AMAZING!!! it's a wonderful low gain drive, for one, the kind you'd be tempet (yes, the shakespeare play minus an S... :rolleyes: ), i mean TEMPTED to set very drive-light & leave on all the time. but the real talent of this pedal reveals itself as a gooster for other drives! it's such a transparent fuzz/drive that it rarely contributes shite that cancels out whatever you're trying to goose. i guess i shouldn't be surprised, as justin's work NEVER disappoints. and yeah, it also does a top notch, early-jimi fuzz face if you turn the internal bias trimmer towards the ccw end!
