Can someone help point me in the direction of a killer fuzz pedal? New to the fuzz thing.

Whats your budget? Check out the fuzz addicts thread and maybe get an idea of the type of fuzzes available that suit your style.

Both VERY good suggestions. Chunk Brown Dog, Wren & Cuff Tallfont are pretty good too.

Wow, so many possibilities...your question is somewhat akin to "can someone point me in the direction of a good looking woman?". It really depends upon your tastes, your budget, and so much more.

Lots and LOTS of information available in this forum on bass fuzz. Stick around for a while, read some threads, do some searches, watch some YouTube videos...soon enough you'll have an idea.

Who has Zoom Ultra Fuzz?

I had one. It's not bad but there are a lot of better fuzzes that work for bass out there. The most fun features don't work after a buffer and I have other pedals that oscillate in more fun ways.

OP - Check out IdiotBox Effects for some really nice bass friendly fuzzes. The Blasteriod, Cool Buzz, Dungeon Master, Ron Swanson, Static Fuzz, and Lazer Fuzz all work well on bass.

I know I'm not alone when I say I love Big Muff on bass. I'd be really interested in checking out the new JHS Mufulletta. I also LOVE the Trombetta Mini-Bone on guitar. Curious what it would do on bass. Also dig the ZVEX Wooly Mammoth. No matter what kinda dirt I put on bass I gotta have control over the dirty/dry blend which I use a Wounded Paw Blender for.

Love my Darkglass Duality. It does every fuzz sound I want extremely well.

The Amptweaker Bass TightFuzz, Oxide, and Wooly Mammoth are all very nice.

Megalith, heaviest fuzz on the planet. But you can't go wrong with a Supercollider.

 

[spaz21387]

The Darkglass bk3 should be on your list to check out. I have been through alot of fuzzes and the earthbound supercollider and the bk3 are my keepers. The blackout musket and tallfont russian are other great ones but didnt stick around after i got the sc and the bk3...

There is so much type of different fuzz ( classic muff, tone bender, wah-fuzz, gate / velcro / synth fuzz, octave up and down, oscillo-fuzz, phaser-fuzz, etc..., ) that it is difficult to give an advice on a model in particular.
You would have to tell us what is your budget.
Have you a blend pedal yet or would you a fuzz pedal with a blender built-in ?
