Fulltone Catalyst Fuzz Overdrive Boost guitar effects pedal demo w Tele & Dr Z MAZ 18 combo

[userboy6]

@joeytruelove not i haven't played this pedal, and didn't mean to sound like a smartass, sorry, actually i sent the London Fuzz back and got the Barber Trifecta, per GMD recommendation, very versatile pedal, everything i ever wanted in a fuzz!

[zumajim]

Great demo, period. Makes me wish I hadn't just dropped a bundle on a Zendrive.

[userboy6]

very little fuzz if any , glad i spent my money on a London Fuzz

[joeytruelove]

@userboy6 Have you ever actually played the Cat in person? In Flame and the gain maxed this puts out more fuzz than anyone would ever need, really. Also its tonal spectrum is not really silicon or germanium so in that sense it's really its own entity.

[MyAgnor]

better than the Fulltone 69?

[whiteatlanticKAO]

there's a dead armadillo on your pedal board! Must've came with the guitar. Us Texans are silly practical jokers.

[InspiredProphecy]

sounds more overdrive than fuzz. I got a fulltone ocd and a wampler ectasy drive on my board. I'm looking into getting a fuzz pedal for my board. I don't think the catalyst will fit my need for fuzz tone. sounds like it has a sweet od. Any suggestions GMD or anyone else.  Help is appreciated. Thank you!!

@InspiredProphecy i think the WAY HUGE PICKLE FUZZ is reeeely gude

[H0egaarden]

I have it, i like it, works on my tube amp, not so much on my tranny practice amp.

[iwishicouldplaygtr]

IMO This is best Fuzz pedal I've ever had. Thanks Mike Fulltone!

[scarsonmybed]

this expensive box just...sucks! it has that hairy OCD tone, but nothing of good sustain or pushing-the-speaker force. Just a bad expensive gadget!

[danceofthedruids]

Not sure why anyone would slam your demo ... you make great demos ... and lots of them! Thanks much!

[Guitarstestdummie]

This box do it all. Amazing.

[HMG5588]

Is this guy who I think it is??? Jack. Great playing... guitar man dude.

[MGD326]

As a vintage TGP-er, I'll give you thumbs up.

I've had one of these guys since August '09 and am just now (February '10) figuring out how to move it into and onto my sound / pedalboard. It does a great job with singlecoils. I'm playing a DGT with 57/08s and really learning that the pedal does very well with the humbuckers. Nice work, as always.

i have it, & so far it has worked well. it can fuzz up, & boost. i think it likes fender style amps the best. with my stuff, it punches the harder you pick

[StratsRgreat]

I A/B'd this pedal against an AnalogMan King of Tone4 and some other same types. Used my strats and PRS's with EL84 and EL34 amps into my cab with the great and amazing 12" Celestion Gold.

The Catalyst was crap in comparison and went back Guitar Center a few days later after the run thru's. The KoT4 costs ~$235 and takes 18 months to get...but if you can hold off...it blows this thing away in every way and in every environment. My opinion.

[bikerpastor71]

I thought it sounded more unique in the spark mode then the flame mode. Great video once again.

[bluesleadguitarist]

were,s the Fuzz it sounds like the OCD no more no less I can get the same sounds from my Mesa Stellitto and way more without even trying and no pedals

[aektzis91]

@bluesleadguitarist yes buuuut think about the tones you can get when you combine the amp and pedal :D:D ive got an OCD in front of my orange head, opens so many more tonal possibilities dude

[barryplem]

Oh my dear lord that sounds tasty.

[captaincrowband]

GREAT demo! I'm gettin' one of these babys!!

[crossroad33]

can you think that is possible to play Hendrix sound with Catalyst and Stratocaster?

[ChablesMan]

That tele sounds delicious

[RHCPFitz]

bought it today, jizzed in my pants

[mckschs]

open a window and a breeze rolled in

[vi0lat0r]

I just had to buy this once I saw this pedal.  Just like my FD2.

[BigNickontheDrum]

man, nice and juicy! that first tone is great, this seems like a subtle tool but everything sounds great on it!

[acepple95]

i hate when they try to make bluesy fuzz pedals or Hendrix pedals they arnt even fuzzy, i like the superfuzzs and Bigmuff used all together at once,you know with powerchords

[tbnmusic]

My girlfriend owns this and I used it as a substitute for my muff once when we were at a show and it performed really well. pretty close to the real thing.

[cleophuseugiene]

@tbnmusic It's not often you get to use the words girlfriend, muff, and thing on the internet and not offend anyone.

[walkertonkidd]

Bad thing about Fulltone is their snobby business attitude. You will know if you ever have had a problem with one of their products. But as usual, GMD is great to do biz with!!! I bet he could retire in two months selling photos of himself!!

[crossroad33]

demo with a strat for a jimmi sound and it's perfect. Thank's

[bigtophalloween]

It sounds like a less greasy version of the Fire Red Fuzz, which is easily my favorite fuzz stomp as of right now...

[RasbyRasby]

Good quality pedal, but sound is not very impessive.

Thnak you for yours videos!!!

[willievega]

Not an over the top fuzz. Very distinguished, bet it takes tea over coffee.
