Bought it thx to Andy's demo. Used it at rehearsals and on stage (in my orange ad30 amp). This is the fuzz I've been looking for so long.
The musket is just perfect for those big "in your face" power chords, and just turning the mids and tone knob, you go from crispy Smashing to heavy medium QOTSA.
Then for velcro-scratchy solos the fix'd is just amazingl: you can achieve all the weird fuzz tones you'll ever need.
Andy : THANK YOU.
And props to blackout effectors for making such a good pedal!
Have to leave comment for this one. You always do great reviews, but this one was phenomenal. This pedal has so many details with the separate channels and switchable everything and you went through each then mixed them. Just amazing.
On a lot of reviews people say stuff like "If it were stolen I'd buy it again." funny enough someone did steal mine and I bought again. Sold my usa muff, tone wicker muff and Zvex fuzz factory to buy a new one. This pedal kills with my JVM
Finally got my own Twosome, no video can really show you just how killer this unit is, there are too many ways to tweak it to show, a truly great piece of gear, and oddly enough the day I got the dog went and kill herself a jack rabbit, coincidence? ;)
Well depends on what you want. Don't know much about the Mad Proffesor Fuzz but this things capable of capturing every fuzz tone ever. I'm going to get one.
I just got one of these from V&R guitars uk. I own a lot of fuzz pedals, but so far this thing has blown me away! Well built and amazing sound quality that is as versatile as a swiss army knife. If you were to cut thick slabs of fuzz exclusively that is...
and the most versatile taste? I have no idea, i 'm pretty sure andy is a robot, he plays everything perfectly note for note, and his voice sounds EXACTLY the same each time, almost completely monotone
Andy and the folks at PGS, can you please start listing the riffs used here?
Too many comments here have devolved into "Name That Tune" with worthy discussion of the products themselves becoming an exception. I'm hoping that by listing the samples, people will feel less compelled to post their guesses as if they had Tourette's and will maybe balance things towards actual discussion.
What a joy to open a tutorial and listen to the Dinosaurs!
