I have a double muff which I have modded with a voltage drop circuit (squelch) and a capacitor switch which shifts the low cutoff (turbo). The double muff is not a fuzz face/fuzz pi but a muff fuzz circuit x2. Its fairly boring sounding stock despite the "double fuzz". After tweaking the freq of the second fuzz and putting a pot across its transistors base It got a LOT more interesting. It competes with my Fuzz War. It also gets that stuttering to a halt fuzz sound as well.
The Fuzz war is insanely good. As in I didnt use any other pedal for a year after I got it. The only lameness is the volume pot has a funny contour. It's very hard to get an even volume between the clean and fuzz levels. The volume will go from teensy to HUGE in a fraction of an inch.
The bassballs has a fuzz built in but it's almost useless.

OH MY GOD YOU HAVE A DEATH BY AUDIO PEDAL
jellous
It's one of the first Fuzz Wars too. I got it a couple of years ago at main drag music in Brooklyn which is spitting distance from the Death by Audio guys.
Supercollider B*tch*s.

Psh. Mids knob? Centered footswitch? Does it at least have the same blindingly white LED?
At least its not the newest version--I'm not a big fan of the new paintjob.
re: Big Muff + Bassballs, I call it ear rape.
