Reccomend any pedals to get this tone?

Dang, just ordered one too. Reworked better, or reworked worse (for bass)?
There are a bunch of different tweaked versions of that circuit with different names (or the same name) over the years. For that price its gotta be worth a shot and probably could be easily modded to match earlier iterations as it is a super simple circuit at heart (I'd guess there are people who have posted mods for these somewhere in the guitar forums)

Another one of my thoughts was the Animato. But I wasn't sure how easy it was to get those or clones of them these days.
Looks like you can get the Amianto direct from the FTElettronica site, but it's 130 Euros and I'll bet international shipping would be pretty steep too.


There are definitely more accessible and cost-effective ways for the OP to get a reasonable facsimile to the tone they're after.

And, if nothing else, at least that Nate Navarro video shows what settings he uses on each pedal, so the OP can perhaps experiment with those levels on whatever distortion pedal they end up using. After all, if one is shaping tone using pedals and other accoutrements, some investment in knob tinkering is needed because it's not a plug-and-play thing,.

The 250 reissue pedal gets that sound pretty dang close. Recommended.

Would like the option of high-passing the fuzz to get clean on the low G. Maybe a Crashbox? Never tried one. What other fuzzes have HPF built in?
