UNIVOX SuperFuzz 60s

[spentonmediocrity]

THAT is the fuzz tone I have not been able to get with any fuzz since my 1991-ish made fuzz face was stolen off my pedal board (when everybody had a hair metal chorusy tone THAT sound stood out).

It's turbulent and spitty,the notes squish on the attack and morph out.Must get one!

[gmdinformation]

It would have limited uses, but I must say that this is one of the more unique sounding distortion boxes out there.

[PAULisDEADMANnumber9]

What does that black switch do?

[PutraBlues]

are you use an octave too?sounds like octavia little bit

[subtractivemagic]

@PutraBlues The SuperFuzz pedal had an octave up feature built in.

[jfrizzlle]

Is there a cat being stepped on during the video or is that the fuzz?

[monkeyxx]

since when do tone and technical flare have anything to do with one another, objectively

[timjmoran]

MAN!! WICKED sounding pedal!! There are So many boutique builders out there

trying DESperately to capture this exact tone.

[timjmoran]

.....

[choppaluvntrav]

Your demos would be more helpful if you demonstrated how it sounds at different gain and volume levels and maybe roll back the guitars volume to show how well the pedal cleans up, etc..... Very nice pedal though.

[bryanatg]

the 70's model has more crunch, the 60's model is creamier.

This is the most beautiful thing

jimi, have mercy

[thebudge333]

[sathanocracy]

@thebudge333 you cant dig it

[MrHollydaye]

@thebudge333 why are you such a hater what did this guy do to you

[thebudge333]

@MrHollydaye If one has cool gear and one can't properly demo said gear, call someone over who can actually play so we can hear what the gear is capable of or suffer the opinions of the public. Feel free to opine on my videos.

[cgravier]

@thebudge333

dude, you dont know what a univox superfuzz sounds like? OMG you fail at life

this guy plays fine and this demo kicks ass much like a Univox Superfuzz does

[Vortigon]

Dear god that's terrible...

[BrianMorrison71]

Purple haze..

[peacemusic17]

does anyone know if this univox superfuzz is the same as the one in the orange-blue casing? sound wise? thanks!!

[bryanatg]

@peacemusic17 this is the 60's model and the orange and blue is the 70's model

[1969thewho]

I just got a Skin Kontrol-Skin Ei clone of a 1969 univox superfuzz made to the original spec with NOS parts etc.even the pcb was taken from a rubbing of the original.. for £80 on ebay. search the pedal name on utube and send this guy a text if you want one!

[TheUltraViolence]

You couldn't be more wrong.

[birdiejoehoaks]

[mrcali68]

Badass!!!

[slaterguitar]

BYOC is releasing a pedal kit for this in January.

[kakakkotmensch]

i really like this sound. i wish i had a uper fuzz

[taijiguy]

Nice! I used to have one just like it, followed by one of the orange and blue ones. Now I have a Wattson SuperFuzz. Exact same circuitry and sound, and only $150.

[iagobroxado]

sorry but.. $250 (of any money) for THAT?

[InflatableDragon]

God damn that thing kicked in like a banshee, that is one kickass fuzz.

[666karl]

There is one on Ebay right now!

[LeCapital]

Awesome.

[Lambseye]

How did you manage to get one of these? They're great! Your one of the few people nowadays who can get Pete Townshend's tone on Live at Leeds.

[vac]

watch ebay. they can push $400 but i scored on for $250.

[ChimichangaCongo]

There are many clones about.

You could also build one yourself.

[vac]

true enough but there's just something about having a legit Univox Supefuzz, or any old pedal, isn't there?
