Members warioblast Posted February 23, 2011 Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 I got it a couple of weeks ago and it's been mostly collecting dust ever since. I much prefer the byoc leeds fuzz I used to own. Anyhow I'm going to mess with the internal trimpot before I unload it but I don't have high expectations. I haven't been so disappointed by a new gear in a while. Luckily my 2 last buys; a Dunlop Octavio & a Roger Mayer Voodoo Blues; kick ass & more than compensate my disappointment.

Phil O'Keefe Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 There's a switch inside - try messing with that and see if you like one of the other two settings better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members warioblast Posted February 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 blasphemy! lift your tiny fists!Seriously, is not "cutting through"? or you really dont like them toanz? It's really farty, nearly only usable with power chords. I don't know how to explain it, there's something too much about the diode clipping. The Leeds fuzz sounded more organic.

So, ok... are you getting much octave out of it? Have you tried it into a crunchy type dirt channel? Just curious. I was wanting to try one out.

Members Wulver Posted February 23, 2011 Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 Relevant to mah interests, was thinking of the Malekko Fuzz eventually.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members warioblast Posted February 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 So, ok... are you getting much octave out of it? Have you tried it into a crunchy type dirt channel? Just curious. I was wanting to try one out. There's a hint of octave. I tried it with a clean signal; it sounded better with some dirt stacking.

I kept the Leeds fuzz for a couple of months, I liked it alright, still more than the Malekko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AimmarCair Posted February 23, 2011 Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 I go to Leeds regularly and is a distinctly fuzz-free place. There isn't even a good guitar shop. Oh, except for that time that I saw The Flaming Lips/The Who play there. Then it was fuzzy. ... I'm helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
