Quick comment on the Benson Germanium Fuzz and Stonk Box ability to regulate the temperature. There isn’t a fan inside, but is a really brilliant design. Chris Benson was able to set a fixed bias of the germanium transistors by warming to a preset temp. around 100°F. The design of the pedal was centered around the temperature to sound best. The pedal self regulates and has a temperature controlled system to stay very close to 100°F in nearly all scenarios…unless you’re playing in the middle of the desert. There is also added a passive pickup simulator to the circuit, which allows you to place it anywhere on your pedalboard without running into impedance issues like other two- and three-transistor fuzz pedals.
Great tones and playing as usual from Nathanial, but Dan’s knowledge of these fuzzes was so interesting. And his answers to Nathanial’s questions IMO, were perfectly thought out ,clear and concise.
Little correction, David Gilmour didn't used a Big Muff on The Division Bell, he used one on PULSE. His distortions on The Division Bell were Tube Screamers and a Proco Rat. Having said that, that Civil War Muff is my favorite.
THANKS FOR WATCHING!!

And the latest version can internally switch out the impedance matcher!

I have been playing a fuzz face for over 50 years but still can't get use to them some days they sound great next day the sound completely different .

Great riffing, guys!
Had to stop and play for a while, inspiring stuff! 😎

Cool video, but the knowledge of Shin-Ei/Univox was noticeably lacking.
amazing!

You forgot the Mosrite Fuzzrite
It would have been awesome if we had one of those too!
Damn, how loud is that amp?
The Hiwatt?
@@chicagomusicexchange No, the Bluesbreaker.

Thousands for a single fuzz pedal. No thanx. I'm more than happy with my cheap tone city fuxx fuzz mini pedal. What's your favorite fuzz pedal ?
People literally drowning in gear lol
Fuzz with no mids = noise
He's a good guitar player but over shadowed by the drummer
jesus christ that Echoes solo was butchered...
Just having too much fun!
