    That King of Tone Mini Fuzz was definitely my favorite in this demo. I love the rolled down sound of fuzzes more than the dimed sound. Both have their place of course.

    • @ttswan
      @ttswan 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes, it got more real at the end when RJ was turning the fuzz down. When I saw Hendrix in '67 he didn't have the fuzz dimed but about 2 o'clock.

    Expresso FX are top notch for me. I own 3 of his pedals and every one of them looks and sounds incredible. They are made with the best components and attention to detail. Hand wired on old school circuit board. Sof the builder is a no nonsense guy and his website tells you exactly what goes into his pedals with optional extras like the battery toggle switch, LED, and bias control. He answers emails promptly and is great to talk to.

    I have a Joe Bonamassa Fuzz face. It has germanium transistors. The pedal was made specifically for humbucker guitars however I play primarily through a strat and it sounds great and cleans up so well I actually use it for my clean tone a lot of the time.

  • @ttswan
    @ttswan 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For silicone fuzz the Deep Trip BOG is incredibly natural sounding and genuine later Hendrix (Band of Gypsys) tone. It's beyond any silicone fuzz I've heard you guys were presenting in these two shootouts.

    for real, you hit the gypsy fuzz and I thought "yep that's way fuzzier" and then you turned to the gypsy style fuzz face and I thought "wait wtf,. thats goddamn wooly" lol - such a sick shootout, not to mention the unboxing/'guest star' pedal at the end lol. Nothing to make me want to replace my eqd black ash unfortunately (i fkn love that pedal lol) - but definitely a sick set of fuzzes to demo/compare!

    Great demo! The Fulltone Octafuzz, in Fuzz mode (not Octave), does the whole range from almost completely clean, through overdrive, to fuzz. Pretty cool. But I loved the smooth tone of the Kingtone Fuzz.

  • @jameslamarca7245
    @jameslamarca7245 4 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @johnbarber3499
    @johnbarber3499 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks RJ and Papa, the Dunlop Gypsy Fuzz would have been my choice, as for sounding like Jimi, and the price. The King Tone, I'm sure if you played with it more it was a killer as well, but for 150 more, if you got it, its good. But for me the Rents to dam high.

  • @tommyparees
    @tommyparees 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Cool demo guys. My only feedback, can you use a more stock guitar? That Strat is obviously heavily modded. To be honest I struggled to differentiate the fuzz sounds because of the humbucker. If you're doing the Hendrix thing, surely you should use a single coil guitar and maybe throw a humbucker in for comparison. Looking forward to the next vid.

    • @RJRonquillo

I really like your channel. Awesome playing… cheers 😎

    @lussier1958 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hobby guitarist to the stars over at RJ's now, it's only fair! I purchased the MXR (yes, Dunlop) Super Badass Variac Fuzz because I like the simulated dying battery sound that can be dialled in. I'm not a big fan of Electro-Harmonix Big Muff yet Ronnie Montrose and Kurt Cobain seemed to use it just fine.

  • @utai4571
    @utai4571 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    it funny how all of these fuzz face type pedals sound so gainy, i had one made for me by an french company that no longer exists unfortunately, and the guy told at that time that he would made mine with two OC75 transistors i think, and i don't know if it's these transistors but that pedal is low gain fuzz! It cleans up beautifuly tho.
    but now you kinda made me wanna go back and chase that hendrix tone again, i thought i was done with pedals but clearly i'm not.

  • @johnw5734
    @johnw5734 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jimi would do a neat effect where his guitar would emerge from a cloud of fuzz, like in Voodoo Child. The germanium pedals for sure have that potential.

  • @antonioroman4895
    @antonioroman4895 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @mattwall1090 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The 2 Band Of Gypsys Dunlop pedals demoed are of copied circuit of the Roger Mayer Fuzz (supposedly a modified octavia without the octave transformer), built into a repurposed red fuzz face enclosure with white knobs, that Hendrix used in '69. Would have been sweet to hear an RM Axis fuzz in the mix though.

    my humble opinion, if You wanna let a fuzz play well: first in chain, a goof Jfet Buffer (or a 15 USD buffer, doesn't matter), than You fabolous fuzz, last a reverb. If You are lucky and can find someone who is able to clone You an original Octavio (not the shitty Dunlop), You won't need a buffer though.... Last but not least, if You can afford to play 5 watts at 10 or whateer amplifier at 10, You will see and hear, the magic sound will start to come out....
