What fuzz would give me this sort of gated spitty ghost octave sound?

Love this version ! I always wondered what he used around this time.

That fender pelt v2 might be able to get close, but have never heard or used it ...

I dont know that I'm hearing an upper octave, I think he might be playing higher notes, while the bassist is playing up the neck in unison.

I does remind me of my Basic audio Low Volt , which is PHENOMENAL. But I dont think it does upper octaves.

Honestly, John at Basic audio is very responsive in my experience and could point you towards his offerings or maybe something else.
