    Would like to emulate that New Orleans tuba sound, any suggestions? Other than buying a tuba :)

    Nice. That frettless sound sure helps, good job. Unfortunately I'm working with frets so hoping to find a pedal (s) that may work.

    Fuzz to sound like tuba? LOL

    watch the featured video right around 2 minutes - killer tuba emulation. Probably using flatwounds, though.

    Fretless and rolling of the highs

    Thanks for this. That video is hilarious, and it's a really good tuba sound. Seeing the MaestroFuzz-Tone for around 400 to 500, maybe there's a clone somewhere...

    I think if you do a quick online search, you'll find quite a few reasonably priced clones.
