  • www.jimdunlop.com A side by side comparison of the two large box Fuzzface from Dunlop saluting the Man....Jimi Hendrix. The new Band of Gypsies fuzz compared to the blue Hendrix Fuzzface of a few years back. There are very cool differences between the two.
    I used my www.mjtagedfinishes.com MJT relic Stratocaster with www.jgcpickups.com JGC Custom Wound pickups, and the mighty tight www.drzamps.com Dr Z Zwreck combo. Shoutou to my buds at www.eqcable.com EQ Cables, and www.thedivinenoise.com Divine Noise cables of love. Yep!

    Exactly the video I needed as I am considering getting of of those! Never been a huge fan of the BOG sound over the studio records sound, but maybe the tone of red one is growing a little bit more on me. But maybe need them both as you say at the end!

    I have both of these (in full size) and I love them both the same. With the blue one I like that there's a bit more control with guitar's volume knob. With the BOG model,it starts to get dirty just after 3 on my guitars volume but I love how it really bites and I can use my wah in front of it with no oscillation. Honestly I don't think you can go wrong with either of these.

  • @TiagoFrancomusic
    @TiagoFrancomusic 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It's strange, because my favorite Hendrix tone is on the BOG album.
    But this red fuzz face doesn't sound like it. Too dark and muddy, at least for me.
    If I had to choose between these too, I'd pick the blue one! Thanks!

    I just bought the red one. I honestly like it a more than the blue one. Either that or I'm just in denial.................... but aside from that, there's a surplus of the blue ones and only a limited number of the red ones. So about 50 years from now (by the way I'm only 13 years old) one of those red ones will probably be worth quite a bit more than the blue ones.

    hey do you think the new one hand of gypsies has different tone little less so it would mix better with Octavia and vibe pedals??

    If you're playing with a band, imho, the blue will cut through better because of a stronger midrange and less low end.

    To my ancient ears the Band of Gypsys unit seems to have a little less high-end but also a bit ballsier in the upper mid-range. I'm not sure if these are true bypass so that could be a consequence of cabling order, but the Band of Gypsies unit still seems to be ballsier and possibly more "Hendrixy". Anyway, with a gun to my head I'd take the BOG unit.

      +Edward Daniell I use guitar overdrive pedals on my bass all the time. They sound great. In fact, I use all effects on my bass and it sounds awesome. I like chorus, delay and reverb on my bass. For distortion I run the whole gamut; Tubescreamer, MXR Dist + , BD-2 Blues Driver, OD-2, OD-1, DS-1, Guvnor, Rat, Big Muff, Fuzz Face,etc. Even a Metal Zone. I have no idea why they make separate bass pedals.
