which fuzz is right for me?
I am looking for that really thick and smooth fuzz, with good lowend. Something that really sounds massive and doesn't mind chords.I play a G&L ASAT Specail into a 65 Bandmaster, and lately no fuzz I have found has really cut it for me, they all seem to bright or buzzy for me. So I would be quite thrilled if you could all possibly send me in the right direction with this one. Thanks in advance.

If you can afford it a Cornish P2... for that Fuzz face tone, a Fulltone '69 is great value, and Analogue man sunface is great too..

The Addrock Geranium fits your description. Tighter bass than most Fuzz Face clones, isn't as tubby either. Lots of smooth gain, and works with a wider variety of amps and guitars than your average Fuzz Face clone. Works incredibly well as a boost or overdrive as well. I've owned the Sunface(both standard and NKT), the London and the Vintage Tone Projects and this is my all time favorite.

Skreddy Zero?
Frantone Cream Puff/The Sweet? McFuzz HOT? Look for fuzzes with BIAS or TONE knobs, as that's where you can dial out some of the fizziness you're talking about.

The Aramat Mojo Fuzz is pretty affordable and has a Mojo (bias) knob that makes it really effective. It can go from classic germanium Fuzz Face tones to a more wooly fuzz blanket for your sound. Keith is a great guy as well. I own an early one and use it often.

Go with the Sybil. Hugely interactive with your guitar vol. knob. When plucked lightly, it sounds so sweet as well. M.E.

I'd say a skreddy zero would work well for what you want

Sounds like you might like the Crucible Fuzz Ge or Si.

Instantly thought of Frantone's The Sweet after reading your fuzz requirements.

Way Huge made the Swollen Pickle Jumbo Fuzz which was great for chords and riffs. Unfortunately Way Huge is gone and SP's sell on Ebay for $500 or more.
