Members GuyaGuy Posted June 7, 2006 Members Share Posted June 7, 2006 yes. it's hawt! really cool 60's raspy fuzz going on. but the ocatve is really weird. not anything like a regular fuzz octave. more of a sound effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members endlessdream83 Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 I just picked up the Nick Nitro today ($130 CAN after tax in Vancouver, used but still mint) and I think it's great!! Granted, the octaver isn't 'widely usable' but what octave is IMO? It's the best octave pedal I've yet heard for getting that Hendrix higher-octave sound... so if that's what you're looking for, which I was, then it should be great for that along!But the best thing is the fuzz... like a Big Muff but cleaner and better tone IMO! I put it through my Peavey Studio Pro and it shapens up the sound so much compared to some other distortion/fuzzes I've tried; even though its tonality is on the bassy end of things, it has very good definition. And if you put an EQ/enhancer after it, it'll be even more clear!So yeah, I'd say try it a bit first, but I only played it for about 3 minutes at the store and that was enough for me!

Members Brian Marshall Posted August 10, 2006 Members Share Posted August 10, 2006 I tried one a couple years ago, and almost bought it. I love the fuzz side of it. the octave side is tracks badly, and is really hard to get an octave out of.... but that was actually why i kinda wanted it.
