Mind folks, this is not a device for conventional people. Either you love it or you hate it. Are you a "one billion notes per second" guy? then it's probably not for you. Do you like clean and neat sounds? Don't even watch the video. There are loads of amazing pedals you can get for that! Are you into noise, shoegaze, fucked up sounds, creative ways to modulate your riffs? BINGO.
1971, after school, friends house in the room where his uncle had the band gear set up. First time I ever saw an electric guitar close up. My friend stuck a box into the guitars jack - Vox Distortion Booster or EHX Muff Fuzz - can't remember now. He played a bit of "Hey Joe" and then just made noise - crude, loud, really obnoxious noise. Hooked! Many hit records were done with rude gear like this - Neil Young, Norman Greenbaum, etc. Cool if you're creative enough!
Andy, your expressions when this thing goes wild is priceless! I'm sure this demo has some great outtakes. Looks like you had a great time with the triangle. Great fun demo thanks.

Such horrible, ugly sounds. Awesome. Some may ask why would you ever want your instrument to sound this way? Because 'nice' isn't always what is needed. There is beauty in the grotesque. It's all about contrast people, contrast is a good thing.
I don't often say this about a piece of guitar gear, but why would anyone want that thing? It sounds like shit, and makes you sound like shit. Just sounds like your amp is messing up, and has shitty tone. Noooo thank you.
I get that it's cool to some people, but it's also one of those things that gets old after a week. And it's pretty limited. If I were to go for something to destroy my sound I'd go for that geiger counter thing by wmd. At least it has more than one use.
That sounded awful, in just my personal opinion. Maybe it's just the recording, I'm not sure. I can say I have certainly heard better fuzz pedals (although admittedly I don't like them anyways.) Also, do we need another fuzz pedal? You can only do so much with that circuit and it's been done better many times prior.

This might be the best thing I've ever seen.

When Andy smiles at 4:33 you know that the effect has to be good.
I don't have aaaaaany use for it at the moment, but man that thing is cool.
Pretty damn wicked drop balls pedal.
I waited for it for cenuries. Finally
Wow! Thats amazing love the crazy sounds, must get 1!
This pedal belongs in an SNES game. And I mean that entirely positively.
beyond cool
I really thought Andy was about to play plug in baby at the end there. Perfect pedal for it
Wow, this is awesome.
Awesome! Scratch that BitCommander I asked for Santa, this is the one!
Really cool idea, they should make a pedal like this for delay that mounts to your guitar so you can make space ship sounds galore.
I like the way it sticks to the guitar but man.. Couldn't they make it in black?
of course! have a look here: www.tentendevices.com
Decay I say! What a sweet funky little pedal. I gots to has it.
Pretty rad ^^
That little diddy shall be on my christmas stocking stuffer list.
I like it. Reminds me of the WMD Geiger Counter.
WTF this thing is amazing
Not even the great Andy can make me believe that I actually need this thing... Maybe Jack White does...
I think i'm in love
I could see some places where it would be a nice speaker fryer.
I would own the shit out of this pedal.
What is this sorcery?
I don't see a a logical use for this, but damn I want this I don't know why but I just do.
Damn Andy, what riff can you not handle?
Just seems like a Fuzz Factory copy. Cool pedal though
wow!
Very interesting - to sound different, always a struggle. I'll bet Aerosmith will use it on their next album!
How could he not play some Smashing Pumpkins licks? It would have been perfect.
At some point , too much fuzz kills the fuzz. The color of the box is nice...
Devo style?
Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo used to duct tape pedals to his guitar, such as an EHX ring modulator that I forget the name of.

no way i'd stick that horrible wedge to my guitar. lukily it's not yellow or it would look like a slice of ceddar randomly landed on your instrument!
You can choose from six colors for the box and six for the knobs ...yellow is only available for the knobs ; )

Tone is subjective. Someone would love this thing. I would never get use out of this.
i like the sound of malfunction.
as someone that basically uses *only* fuzz, i absolutely adore this thing...i can see so much use of this thing you wouldnt believe..

maybe for you..for me this thing wouldnt get old even after a decade

Looks like a perfect device for poor Matt-Bellamy wannabes
Yuck. I didn't like that at all. No offense andy.
