60's Fuzz Recommendations

[dorfmeister]

How about recommending me some good fuzz pedals to get the tones of old garage and psychedelia.

I've already got a Malekko Germanium and a Devi Ever Torn's Peaker but I would like a third old school flavor on the board.

I've heard clips of the D*A*M 1966 and really like them. I've heard about pedals like the Creepy Fingers Fuzz Nugget.

What do you like and what else should I be looking at?

Basic Audio?
Dice Works?

AM Peppermint Fuzz is a good one.

If you want to spend more money there's the BJF Candy Apple Fuzz. Never tried one, but the clips sound pretty awesome.

I'd really like a Creepy Fingers Nugget -- that sounds killer!

 

[dorfmeister]

Thanks Philly.

Keep it coming, dudes.

Voodoo Lab Superfuzz should be an option.

I have the Aashbass Fuzzbrite, which totally nails the "Blue's Theme" sound, which is the locus classicus for the Mossrite Fuzzrite. Viz: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKpAJF4zCwY

The Sun Face and Peppermint fuzz are great fuzz-face-type fuzzes.
As for tone-bender-type stuff I dunno. I'm about to embark on that journey myself.

BYOC Leeds fuzz looks great... and I love my BYOC Bender!!

Of course I 2nd all of the Analogman mentions.

 

[dorfmeister]

Thanks for all the responses.

Keep it coming!

I am wondering if there are designs that you know of based around really funky obscure pedals from way back.

The Bone Bender is supposed to be pretty garage and psychedelic. Poor mans D*A*M 1966. It's next on my list.

I've got my eye on these.

No 9v tap, though, right? Batteries only?

Danelectro French Toast. Even though Danelectro calls it a distortion, it's really a mid 60s type fuzz IMO.

Peppermint Fuzz is stellar. I've been itching for an Ashbass Fuzzbrite for a while...

 

[Stratman69]

I have a early Fulltone '69 with Star. I couldn't be happier.

I like the Baja Tech Bone Bender (Vox Tonebender clone), Ashbass Fuzzrite clone, Monsterpiece Angry Dick (Jordan Bosstone clone), etc.

 

[IronPaws]

I like the Barge Conepts BB-1, it's a Beebaa clone that is stellar!
