I don't know - but that fuzz rules.....I've had a lot of fuzzes and never quite nailed it.

 

I'd hazard a guess at a 2 knob tonebender, Maestro, or perhaps a mosrite fuzzrite for that kind of tone.

 

 

Very hollow and brassy sounding. Great.

 

FWW, the DOD punkifier that I got recently for very cheap does a great 60's trumpet-tone fuzz. Shock horror!

My bet is on the Vox 2 knob Tone Bender, a holdover from the Revolver. Check out D*A*M's version called the 1966-it nails the Beatles fuzztone. I love mine. www.stompboxes.co.uk.

 

BTW, what is with the immature A-holes with replies at the beginning of this thread-what does "Shut the Fuck Up" have to do with this topic-go ride your skateboard in traffic and play your crappola Korean Jackson or Schecter and get away from this board-you are not musicians you are idiots and I am sick of the asses that too often frequent this board.

Ok, I'll give you a pass on the Jackson-back in the hair days I had a Dinky Strat with bridge humbucker and an allover airbrushed Stormy Skies At Night Graphic and also a bolt-on Soloist Custom with a cool metallic Cobalt Blue finish and twin humbuckers-of course both had the mandatory Floyd trems.

Never heard the Dimebucker but isn't it based on the Lawrence L-500 that Dime used to have in his Deans in the early 90's? I had an L-500 in a Strat style swirl finish guitar circa 1992 and that pickup was clear with power. I coupled it with a Duncan '59 neck bucker. (Nuno style setup)-yes, I was a shred fan then-now classic jam rock which is where I started originally in the late 70's-I am a Crowe-aholic and just rediscovered Blind Melon again too! I think Joe Perry used L-500's in a lot of his Pauls and B.C. Rich's in the late 70's.

what about the brass fuzz, i havent heard it but by the name i would assume its pretty brash. maybe a fuzz rite followed by a rangemaster??? who knows.

 

someone should get a ouija board and try asking all of these dead guys how they got their tone, its at least worth a shot. :D
