You can only have one fuzz on your board - What do you select?

But has to be less the $250 new. Go.

i only have one... an octafuzz.

i pretty much leave it on the octave setting all the time... but every once in a while i'll use the plain old fuzz setting too. 2 killer sounds... 1 pedal... about 100 bucks used. and you have $150 to spend on another pedal!

OxFuzz(silcon) Perfect sounding fuzz. Not too much treble, not too much gain and not too much flub. My favorite fuzz ever!

Today, I would probably use:

Wren & Cuff Tri Pi 70


Tomorrow, it could be Fuzzhugger Algal Bloom or SUF Civil War.

BBB07. It does everything dirt, from light OD to balls to the wall fuzz facey goodness. In fact it could be the only dirt pedal on your board.

My favourite is the NG-2. It's the only fuzz I use. It's way more versatile than people give it credit for.. But it is quite pricey..

I'm not that in to over the top fuzz but maybe I just haven't found the right one or maybe it's just that they don't sound good in clips and fart out. I like lower gain singing type fuzz that can clean up into overdrive territory, which is why I love the Lunar Module. I'm also looking into the Diamond Fireburst right now because I can do high gain fuzz if it's almost like a loose and sloppy distortion.
