what are your favorite fuzz pedals?

What is some of your favorite fuzz pedals you've used?

The only one I've used is the Big Muff Pi for guitar, it doesn't sound to bad with bass.

But what others are good?

My favorite (out of a LOT) is the Electronix MessDrive Hybrid. It's hard to beat, really.

I'm really sure that I would love the supercollider and B:assmaster as well though.

 

[Valerus]

Yeah dude I need to try those out.

Ask me again in a month or so, but at the moment my fave fuzz is the Bass Big Muff.

Prescription Electronics: Yardbox

 

[Snakeman1066]

Voodoo Labs Superfuzz

 

[vegas532]

So far a tie: Malekko Heavy Industry Double-Germ B:Assmaster and Wattson Superfuzz.

Effector 13/Devi Ever Soda Meiser!

Not the most versatile fuzz but amazing sound (IMO). Not to mention the No-fi Chaos is actually pretty nice on bass (and it can do fuzz factory style oscillation).

HAO The Roar
Devi Ever Cherry Pop
Guyatone TZ2
Devi Ever OK
Shin Ei Companion Fuzz [GGG kit]

I also have and like
Devi Ever Disaster fuzz [no lows but sill cool]
Seymorur Duncan Tweek fuzz [right now it's just for look'n at]

I aso had a 90's Vox Tone bender that I traded but I sometimes do miss, it sucked ALL lows but really sounded cool.

I also like muffs and have a Sovtek Bigmuff [the green one] and a general guitar gadgets tuned BMP [GGG kit]

Nice, someone else has the Wattson Superfuzz. I love mine. They even posted my hyperbolic blurb on their site. I've got some parts coming this week and I'm going hot rod it. They did a really good job capturing the Superfuzz character and the circuit board is layed out so clearly that it makes modification really simple. Definately my favorite fuzz right now.

I don't use distortion much, but when I do I use the drive channel on my Sunn Beta Bass and EQ that.

I also have a Boss ODB-3 that I get a couple good sounds out of. Yep, many people rag the Boss but it can get a few good sounds with the right settings on the pedal, amp and EQ.

Also plan to get a a ProCo Turbo Ratt and Big Muff.

I'm about ready to try and create sub-genres of fuzz. I like too many.

I, too, love the heck out of the Beta Bass distortion. FETs or MOSFETs sound terrific. I also REALLY like the Sustain Punch Creamy Dreamer. All the best sounds of a Muff, with no horrible low end drop, no sludge between notes, and no getting lost in a band context. Good luck finding one, though, holy crappe. Oh, and the B:Assmaster. And Woolly Mammoth. This is too hard, and you're all giving me fuzz pains...

It better be, I just bought one today. I'm holding you personally responsible!

 

[Bofee]

My all time favorite bass fuzz is the one on my 70's fuzz wah. (I bought it new!) No adjustments on it, only on and off. It's the Dunlop case, but I thing it was made by the Thomas Organ company. The bottom plate with all the info on it is missing.
#2 is the Messdrive Hybrid used with a Barge Concepts VB-Jr.

Barber trifecta.
