Ok, so i got to see one of my favourite bands live yesterday who go by the name of Cog, there bassist is a pretty cool effects user and warwick endorser.
Bottom line, for one of there songs my enemy he uses a really cool fuzz sound on the intro + a live variation and i just could not identify it.....maybe someone here can? Heres the video i got a good screenshot of it from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKo0s0nAAUs
i know in the video it looks like he hits one of those boss boxes but when i saw them he was just using that big old black pedal on the raised platform with the 3 knobs
im in the market for a fuzz and i love the sound i hear in this one, he still had enough low end bonecrushing tone to grind up a cows bones into a fine powder and slice up the remaining meat into perfect intact cuts |

I don't have one, but the fuzz circuit in the Chunk OS is absurdly cool... |

The logo isn't in the right place, and there is a tube-sized grill on the top. It may be that Flip pedal, but the Guyatone was the first thing I thought of. |

God, I need friends.
