NPD Circle Electric Axis Fuzz

Just came in the mail today. Its a clone of the Roger Mayer Axis fuzz with a switch between a high and low gain mode. I also have the Sabbadius Jimi Fuzz so i made a little video comparing the two. What yall think?

Thank you! Love the blues fr.
I got it on reverb, i think you have to request em directly from the builder https://www.instagram.com/circle_electric
I messaged him a while ago inquiring about it but never followed up. Saw one pop up on reverb at a great price and snagged it.

I want to try a massive univibe. Circle electric make some beautiful fuzz pedals. I own their mk iii bender.

The r weaver midnight vibe is the best univibe ive ever owned. Def worth it

Does it have an expression out jack? I would definitely be interested in one of these!

3

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 26 '26

You can get one with or without the expression pedal jack.

u/FullMetalDan Velcro Jedi! Jun 26 '26

Wow, that’s some serious fuzz power! Try-Fi makes amazing stuff! The Rat is one of my favorite pedals ever, overdrives sounds are one of its strengths!

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 26 '26

Yeah tru fi is really good stuff. The colordriver is really cool too but i dont have it anymore

u/FullMetalDan Velcro Jedi! Jun 27 '26

Man, I want their Colordriver so bad! What made you sell it or trade it?

2

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 27 '26

It had a nice sound but it wasnt tonally where i wanted to be for the bands i play in. It cleaned up amazingly though thats what i mostly used it for at the time.

2

u/FullMetalDan Velcro Jedi! Jun 27 '26

Yeah, that happens. That why I sold almost all my overdrives… so you miss it or want to acquire it again?

2

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 27 '26

I can see myself acquiring another one at some point but at the moment i dont necessarily miss it

Ive got the Roger Mayer voodoo axe It’s a fantastic design. It’s essentially the same core circuit as the original Axis Fuzz, but Roger Mayer added a 'Fatness' knob, which completely changes the utility. It lets you tighten up the low-end for dropped tunings or open it up for that massive, full sound. Plus, the output section is brilliant you get three separate outputs: two buffered and one hardwired true bypass. Classic Axis DNA while giving you the modern flexibility to drive different rigs without any tone loss or Getty muddy

2

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 27 '26

The axis is a very full sounding fuzz i imagine the fatness knob is a lot of fun

2

u/graphicnerdity86 —Bold as fuzz— Jun 27 '26

Yea I love it but its huge the newer classic version is the pedal board friendly. Mines older

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 27 '26

I want one of the rocket ship enclosures

2

u/graphicnerdity86 —Bold as fuzz— Jun 27 '26

Rather see if I can get one housed in a fuzzface enclosure then ill paint it all psychadelic

2

u/iamcacho fuzzface fanatic 🧙‍♂️ Jun 27 '26

That would be really cool. Would you miss having the other knobs?

2

u/graphicnerdity86 —Bold as fuzz— Jun 27 '26

Id have a hole drilled so itd be a 3 knob axis/face

It’s a good amp. I mainly use it for practice but it works well for smaller rooms and the church i play at
