EarthQuaker Devices Fuzz Pedals

I have a couple of EQD pedals and the build quality, sound quality, and customer service are consistently excellent. I can't speak for the Dirt Transmitter, but the Hoof is an amazing pedal on bass. There are other, more doomy bass fuzzes out there, but for a straight-up Muff style fuzz, the Hoof is amazing. Just make sure it is the newer, 4-knob model, not the 3-knob version.
 
I have the Hoof (with 4 knobs), sounds great on bass ! You can get various tones from dirty overdrive to huge fuzz, always really organic. I play it with a PBass into an Ampeg V4BH or a Genz Benz Streamliner 900, it suits both well, very natural sounding.
