hey, i think you may have had this question many times, but i'd be searching one of your many clips to see where the answer is so i ask it here. What recording material do you use?
How come you choose reverend as the low cost brand? Build quality, features, wood type .. ? :) I like how they got their own body types, korina and a nice mix of configurations!
Nice tones, really. Very usable for chords AND solo, which is not that common for fuzz pedals.
For the price though, I'd rather buy a twosome fuzz (blackout effectors). The musket side achieves very similar muff sounds (with lots of medium and focus tunings too), and you have the fix'd side for more wicked textures in addition.
Oh and there's no 9V DC input on this Skinpimp Buzzaround, which disqualifies it from a pedalboard use imo.
@TwilightOdyssey I have the Fuzz War (pre-volume knob) and am now considering the Buzzaround. The Buzzaround sounds tighter and more focused to me. The Fuzz War sounds a bit looser, more like a distorted tube *amp* section. More complex, dirty harmonics, but cannot be truly "reigned in" like the Buzzaround. YMMV
This is probably one of the best guitar players in this world. How a good taste he have...I love the tone that Andy gives to the guitar with his right hand.
3:18 P90's ...WOW. Gotta love the growl this effect has with the P90's
