| | | | I can only back up what has already been said, but many here are huge fans of the pickle pie because it has a blend function. |

Why?
Blend
Smaller footprint
Top notch build and quality parts. It's a very solid pedal.
Sounds good at all settings, it's actually hard to get a bad sound out of it.
Plus I owned one and regret letting it go....the only reason I did was cuz I learned I only use this type of pedal infrequently and when the mood strikes I have my Sovtek BM.
Great pedal built by a good dude. I can honestly say the Phat Phuk B will grow old with me.....might just be my favorite pedal ever.

|  | no really, smokemeth&hailsatan | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Pueblo, CO | | | I've had a Pickle Pie B for the last few years new. The blend is he most useful feature for a fuzz of all time IMO. IT can do low gain, Mid Gain and High Gain just like Josh said. It really is my favorite fuzz pedal that I have, and have had. |

| | no really, smokemeth&hailsatan | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Pueblo, CO | | | What sound are you looking for exactly? Pickles can be finicky, but the new swollen pickle is hard to dial in a usable sound I've found. |

|  | I'm super, thanks for asking!
Beta Tester: Source Audio | | Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Chicago, IL | | | Swollen Pickle is cool, but has a lot of gain and as you are finding, it seems like its easy to "lose" your setting and find your way back. I haven't played the Pickle Pie, but if its at all similar to the W&C Tall Font Russian, then I imagine its easier to dial in your sound. |

| | | | I once used my Swollen Pickle with a Pickle Pie...
What were we talkin' about?
