Death By Audio Fuzz War

[MeanGreenMovies]

I loves me some Sabbath

[hillbillygenius72]

At first was like "what kind of fuzz pedal is this?"

*Volume Swell*

"OH SWEET JESUS THATS AMAZING!!!!!!!"

[Cacamonstero1]

after hearing that jimi rift i had to get this

[TheHotcarlton]

ty segall uses this

[MrCasperPierce]

Do you know a fuzz pedal always on sale who came make the shhhhhhhhhh sound like My Bloody Valentine's Sunny Sundae Smile ?

[pearljamporch]

wich is better Fuzz War or Supersonic Fuzz Gun? I just want to buy a kick-ass Fuzz... or should I go for the Zvex Fuzz Factory?

[kevman5]

@pearljamporch all personal opinion, look up reviews on em and make up your mind!

[MrMuddyBleach]

Is this like a big muff? I hate the scooped sound of big muffs, if I can get some good chord sounds that aren't too bassy then I think it's good. There are other videos where it doesn't sound like this.

Can I use it as a main dirt pedal with the gain on low and then go crazy with it topping out? I want to be able to do some fuzzpunk/garage type tones on low gain, and then do some shoegaze/Spaghetti Western stuff on the high gain.

Also, how would it respond to reverb?

[nickblum97]

the fuzz at 2:05 is absolutely yummy!

[MrFenderbender97]

 I bet you the wizard had something to with this pedal

[entertheredfox]

@MrFenderbender97 once you get in to one of these trips theirs only a couple of ways you can get out. one is death, the other is mental institution.

[PIAVOnline]

@entertheredfox I see what you did there haha. Nice.

[leachim6]

is there a 9v on this?

[lLetTheGoodTimesRoll]

THIS FUZZ IS JUST BBBBBRRRRWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAZAZA­ZZZAZAZAZZZZZZZZBBBBBBBWWWAAAH­HHHHZZZRRWWAAA

[castro2337]

@eatthemoon13 Heavy slow riffs? i would pick the fuzz war =)

[DerEchteBold]

@eatthemoon13

tried the deviever aenima?

[chrissalz]

Sabbath!

[strontkegel16]

the way this guy talks reminds me of patrick bateman doing his morning routine

[420Fuzzer]

@strontkegel16 yeaah thumbs up for patrick

[Grimdell]

I purchased the Fuzz War pedal from ProGuitarShop after watching this and many, many other demo videos.Thank you, Andy! Your demos are the best I've seen on the net! \m/

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@Grimdell - \\m//

[LaphroaigPhan]

Never talking.... just keeps walking....

[MrMuddyBleach]

These pedals seem to kick the hell out of a big muff

[MrJohnTsang]

The Wizard. Pretty Awesome dude !

[AshAndTheBadHands]

i'm torn between this and Dwarfcraft's Shiva

[koolmaaan]

the mids are too scooped for me... even though it is beefy as all heck.

[disissanchy]

Fuck Yes! "The Wizard" for opening whaaaaaat!!!!!!!! As for this pedal...well....sounds purely EVIL....and for Fuzz...that's Goooooood!!!

[zdkezios]

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!! IT'S THE FUCKING WIZARD!!!

[ImmortalDestructor]

I like it alot, but why put a control knob inside the box where you can't use it?

[karl198]

@MikeLovesFastFood

Whats it like as far as noise goes? Is the fuzz war managable or do you need to buy a noise gate ?

[mymusicjeter]

around fuzz knob looks like cover of new linkin park album

[redhawk258]

Of all the death by audio fuzz boxes which is the best?

I really like this one and The Sound Wave breakdown

[Tanikaze2]

I come back to watch this vid every other week because HOLY SHIT.

I cream a little whenever I hear the kick in at :20 and 4:22 I cream.

[PRSguy94]

At the beginning I was thinking "is this it?" and then he turned up the guitar volume and I thought "now THAT'S what a death by audio fuzz pedal should sound like!"

[KILLAPENGUIN95]

I started playing about two years ago so I have a fairly simple set up a 92 Epiphone SG 400 and a small fender amp how would this sound on something small?

[lordieuan777]

@KILLAPENGUIN95 The guitar should be ok (even if fuzzes sound better on single coils imo), it's a good guitar. Is the amp a valve (tube if you're american) or solid-state? Valves tend to take pedals much better than SS amps, and small, simple valve amps take pedals better than just about anything usually. Hope this helps :)

[disissanchy]

@KILLAPENGUIN95

probably still loud enough to Kill a Penguin..... :)

great Fuzz pedals/ OD pedals can really turn small amps HUGE!

[aawshred]

i think i like the devi ever aenima better

[eatthemoon13]

@aawshred Good idea if you dont want anyone hearing the chords your playing. Devi stuff is great when i need noise.

[eatthemoon13]

This has stoner doom written all over it..say good by bug muff!

[juancabmx]

Everyone's happy when the wizard walks by!

[robostomo1]

@Jimlead who cares, it sounded great. dont judge it by the components, but the sound

[TheLedGuitarist]

i would give my left toe (the little one) for this

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@TheLedGuitarist - We'll take it!

-PGS

[AvonJunkies]

Death By Audio makes ridiculous pedals, so cool

[nachodelico]

How you think that sound this fuzz war into a fender super reverb amp?

[thelastsupermariobro]

SABBATH

[Broodkill]

@thelastsupermariobro YEAHHH THE GODS ARE HERE!

[Dinner102]

Is this little toy a truebypass device?

[waldnutt]

I played it yesterday with my musicman bass through my ampeg rig. HOLY FUCK!! I never heard such a sound! The Bass distorion was awsome!!!! lot of bottom but not so uncontrolled as a bigmuff is. you can hear the strokes...gonna chatch a fuzz war soon. Cant live without it. ;-) yepp, great for stoner, doom, sunn(((O noise etc....

[ipnoteca]

even if i have a 20w tube head my fuzzwar doesn't sound this way. internal trim is set to max level, i use a telecaster with dually red lace sensor humbucker. sometimes it sound like if it's gated...any clue???

anyway great demo as usual!!!

[ipnoteca]

i've got this pedals but it doesn't sound this way. i've got a laney 20w lionhearth head+blackstar 212 cabinet.i play a telecaster with lace sensor dually red humbucker. don't know why but it look like mine pedal is gated. it doesn't have tons of sustain like this one...i hope it is not broken or it have some electronic trouble. internal trimmer is set to maximum fuzz. any clue???

[CaptainLibertarian]

It's a thing, says the music consumer.

[ihavenoname93]

whoa.. i was just about to buy a big muff. and then i saw this video.

[scottcherest]

what is the riff he is playing from 1:25 on? Damn catchy!

[TapeMeasureandhair]

I like this

[mattsynth]

Very beefy fuzz. I like

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

Get a tube amp. It will be a life changin experience. ; )

PGS

[Soniclife91]

@ProGuitarShopDemos best advice ever

[Ryanrobot99]

@ProGuitarShopDemos I agree... Effects pedals are only as good as your amp. Guitars to for that matter.

[plxplxkthx]

@ProGuitarShopDemos couldnt agree more :) i dunno about everyone else but i remember the first day i plugged in my tube amp, WHOAAAAAA

[Crohny]

@ProGuitarShopDemos i will literally cut my toe off for one of these.

[MrFenderbender97]

@ProGuitarShopDemos I believe it would be I am 13 and have a low budget. What tube amp would you suggest considering the low budget.

[nymetsrock]

@MrFenderbender97 fender blues jr is fantastic, also check out the vintage line of carvin combos

[lostlemming]

@MrFenderbender97

Marshall Class 5 or a Fender Blues Junior

[jimi1180]

@ProGuitarShopDemos I bought a Fender Blues Deluxe a few days ago. You were right, it is life changing.

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@jimi1180 - Excellent. Congratulations, and welcome!

-PGS

[Gregrg7]

Well, there's where you go wrong. A ROLAND JC-120??

Try the Fuzz War in a Music store through a Fender Twin or Marshall head. He's playing this into a Fender Deluxe Reverb in the video. TUBES!!!! where the warmth is. :)

[TwilightOdyssey]

@christhimself It's your amp! I use a Fuzz War with a Bumbox Cielo and a Splawn Quick Rod and it sounds MONSTROUS!!!

[Zeupater]

@christhimself

The JC-120 is a great amp, but for the classic fuzz sounds in this demo (Page, Hendrix, etc.) PGSD is right -- you will probably need a tube amp. My favorite notable guitarist who uses/used a JC-120 is Adrien Belew (c.f. King Crimson, Discipline). Excellent sounds for sure, but a different type of sounds. Solid state and tube are using different applications of the laws of Physics.

I am thinking of adding a JC-120 to my setup to compliment my tube amp.

[wetcrevice]

@christhimself  They're using a dirty tube amp that overdrives slightly. They combine that with the sound of the pedal.

[loas55]

black keys's fuzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

[majick59]

If you are looking for a "basic" fuzz... it DOES NOT get better than this!!!

[MarsHottentot]

I love these videos - easily the most apropos to the pedal being demonstrated being put up by a shop. Unfortunately, I sneezed while rating and gave this a two - my bad it's the full five!

[Ilovemyfender2]

That pedal is fucking huge.

[DarkHypocrisy]

Perfect for stoner!

[pigdoggg]

Word. Can't wait for mine to come!

Imagine this pedal through a Sunn amp.

[ston3rsnail]

imagene through a marshall jcm 800 :)

(Sunn just doesn't need it IMO...)

[Tanikaze2]

Now that I've rewatched this, assuming the last parts are with the trimpart set on drive, this pedal has a buttfuckload of gain.

[AirHendrix91]

WOW

[robpage1990]

THE WIZARD!!! HELL YEAH BLACK SABBATH

[PooPoo2U]

an internal trim pot for gain? who the hell needs that? crank the shit up, tear the knob off, and kick some ass!

[johnnyjw]

I'm stuck between this, the "Supersonic Fuzzgun"" and Earthquaker Devices "Hoof Fuzz" and "Dirt Transmitter". I'm looking for something with a decent range of fuzz that is actually usable. Any suggestions or other ideas?

[shuppet88]

devi ever:fx

[rm206productions]

I own a bunch of fuzz boxes including a Supersonic Fuzz Gun... which by the way is barely usable aside from anarchic soundscapes and square wave chaos. For something with tons of usable fuzz tones check out MI Audio's GI Fuzz. The name is stupid, it doesn't really look cool, but it's got a million tones and most of them sound great.

[Zwikster]

I checked out that GI Fuzz review and I think im sold. This Fuzz War sounds good, but for the same price the GI Fuzz has a lot more knobs for endless fuzzy tweeking. its a touch pick because this Fuzz War really sounds great. Maybe I should get both, LOL !! any advice?

[cl0udtop]

both of course.

[tommart123]

fuckin hell its huge!

[saltystudios]

you're right....

[sfcard]

i have this pedal and to me its a gonad big muff

[chiiitmeng]

i just bought one. it rocks. i play it through my marshall jcm 800 lead series halfstack and through my jazzmaster. it sounds huge. one of the biggest fuzz pedals ive ever played. i also own the metal muff. the metal muff has more of a classic rock sound ac/dc guns n roses style but the boost can send you into shred heaven. its more versitile, but theres more FUZZ in the fuzz war. I HAVE SPOKEN!!!

[11slash711]

The metal muff is a distortion pedal.

[GrUngeRoCK101]

think i heard a silverchair riff there.

[uncleRAVEmachine]

GAAAHHHH!

this thing is so nasty!!

i neeeeeeed one!

[ChonnyChimole]

This pedal is great. Ive had it for about a week. It has a good all around but extremely aggressive fuzz sound. It sounds great with single coils. Id like to hear P90s or Gretsch Dynasonics.

[Schmondr]

Tune your guitar to a low C and get sucked in by the bassy fuzz

[paperbea]

That last tone was god like!

[madmonk66]

Nice bit of The Warning and other Sabs....

That is a sooper great fuzzy mutha.

Nice.

[sfcard]

mee wauntee

[sinkinginshirts]

better sounding than a big muff

[winterfrostghost]

what about other dba pedals? It's will be great to see here review of The Interstellar Overdriver and Octave Clang

You have best youtube video reviews!

[tony93666]

TONY IOMMI IS GOD

[goodguitaristatmetal]

if this is what a tele sounds like then i wonder what it would sound like with a PRS or LP

[Rollingstonek11]

This has to be a fun job...

[almudjk]

nice for led zeppelin

[smoss469]

Why would you ever put a crucial control INSIDE the case?

[JacoThe2nd]

It's one of those "just in case" or "fine tuning" kinda things, I think.

[TheBlackCrayon77]

Kinda like a Fulltone Octafuzz, nice. I like the overtones on this a little better than the Fulltone though. How well does this work with chords? I'm looking for the perfect fat fuzz for chord playing. Oliver is one gifted cat, all his pedals sound great.

[LordOfThisWorld74]

The Wizard!!

[downwithdixie]

nice Sabbath intro, perfect choice! This is sounds like a big muff on steroids.

People,why not go to their website to find out the price ;)

[EEEmusic]

Great, How much?

[FGxRaptor]

how much does this pedal run for?

[telecastersRthebest]

Is that Linkin Park I'm hearing? One Step Closer? =P

[robpage1990]

is that ghey i'm hearing? yes it is fucktard linkin park can go die

[Jericho179]

I LOVE Death by audio!

[goodguitaristatmetal]

fuzzier than clevelands hair from FG

[ODSTAce]

sexy chunks!

[thebeatled]

First time i don't like the intro song... nice review though.

[Sukainami]

That is awesome! It sounds like it might get a little noisy when you aren't playing, but it's rad enough for me to deal with it.

[MasterGuitarGod]

Sounds Badass.

[Spocksbrother]

great fuzz
