Someone please give me the lowdown on all the Skreddy's!

There are so many I get confused as to what the differences are. Plus, with all the different clips and lack of quality, it is sometimes hard to hear the main differences.

I'm mainly interested in:

Mayo
Pink Flesh
Lunar Module
Screwdriver
Top Fuel

But also curious about the other discontinued models.

Pink Flesh - Triangle clone with Rams Head tone stack and tweaks. Selector switch to choose between flat and boosted mids so it isn't scooped as is usual for a muff.

Lunar Module - The most versatile, best sounding silicon fuzz I've ever tried. And I've tried a lot.

Not a lot of sound samples on this one-anyone know of any? Is it still a muff?

The Lunar Module is based off a Fuzz Face.

Ernie- early Black Sabbath in a box. I think similar circuit as Pink Flesh but with transistors from the Zero.

Cognitive Dissonance - Dead-on triangle clone, plus a flat-mids switch.

I have the PF as well...it is exactly as described by the above poster..

[IvIark]

I think by "lack of quality" he means the MP3s and Youtube vids that can be found, not the products.

Considering these are very popular pedals there is a definite lack of clips knocking about

God I wish I could re-do that LM demo that he put up on the site. But alas, I have sold it.

Why'd you sell it if I may ask?

At the time, my feeling was that with the Screw Driver's gain dimed and the sharpness rolled off, it got the fuzzy tones I was looking for, and it to my surprise it sounded very close to what the Lunar Module had going on. So I stuck with the SD and let the LM go. I tried it more out of curiosity, and it does sound great but I didn't really need it.

Okay, thanks for the info guys -

So what are the main differences between these three:

Lunar Module
Pink flesh
Mayo

I know the mayo is more compressed but thats about it.

LM - This is going to sound more like a Fuzz Face but fuller, not harsh or brittle.

Pink Flesh - Triangle Big Muff type circuit but with more mids. You can choose between flat/juicy so you are either going to get mids or more mids with this one. You can not get a scooped mids muff tone with this pedal.

Mayo - Triangle Big Muff type circuit with a switch to choose scooped or flat mids. This is my favorite and I like scooped mids for chords and flat for leads. Some people (especially those in bands) may want flat mids all the time and boosted ones for solos so the PF would be a good choice for them.
