Members thom Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 First of all, it doesn't have to be a straight clone or rip-off job, I was just wondering if there were any -non diy- peds out there that take the same approach to the si fuzzface, or at least do something similar? There's got to be a more affordable fuzz out there that comes close enough...Right?? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gunner Recall Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 You might dig the dunwich fac off...it's meathead-ish with a few extra tricks. [video=youtube;oL3kVE03a6g] [video=youtube;_7Y5th2Wkj4] Under 200 clams I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members t-rey Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 And there is a more tweakable FAC Off ver2 coming out. The only other one I can think of is the EQD Dream Crusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thom Posted April 13, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 13, 2012 Dunwich...Not exactly a brand you can find at every street corner:s Sounds good though, but since I'm Europe importing a $200 pedal from the US would end up costing me more than if I'd buy a used meathead of ebay... The dreamcrusher...Sounds great too, in it's own way. Not quite the same flavour of fuzz face though, at least to my ears... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chugs Posted April 13, 2012 Members Share Posted April 13, 2012 The Meathead is a modified silicon fuzz face so check out some fuzz face type pedals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom job to keep the price down then gift it to you on the forms to avoid large custom import taxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thom Posted April 14, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2012 Thanks all, including the doods who pm'd me with offers to build me a clone or sell me their clone... But since I'm picky (maybe stinchy according to some), already drowning in underused pedals, not rich, and under the guard of my g/f who's so far doing a good job keeping us from going bankrupt dispite my crazy fuzz adiction... I'm taking my time, looking at the zillions of options to make sure I get the best possible deal out there. So even though I'm normally not at all anti-boutique when it comes to dirt peds, there's no way I'm spending $100 or more here. At least when it comes to clone/diy effects that don't have the best resale value, something I'd also want try to take into account. And I guess I should explore the stuff I already have a little more to see how far that gets me. My fuzz factory is after a modified (severely that is) Si fuzz face too, it just takes a little more tweaking to find the more meathead-ish settings. A big problem there (1st world problem, I know) is that my fuzz factory impo sounds the best with the gain not all the way, but stacked with another mild distortion/od, or with my amp's crunch...Really beefy/gnarly/nasty/heavy/etc. Which is just waaaay too noisy, in terms of excessive humm/hiss, even with humbuckers...
