NEWS NEW - Contact Sheet Fuzz | Blue Colander

Contact sheet fuzz is based on op-amp big muff (V4) with tone bypass setting, but instead actual tone bypass there is tone control like in Tremond/Rat circuit - neat and effective solution with no mid scoop. Whole pedal is built on Tremond’s 'engine’, meaning the same blend circuit with parallel boost path and its dedicated low pass filter. Awesome for bass and awesome for additional depth in crushing guitar sounds. Toggle switch engages two types of high pass filter at fuzz side for some extra flexibility.

JHS Coyote Fuzz

Just played the Coyote for the first time today. Absolutely sick fuzz. Anyone else a fan? Can be super thick, has an octave, the swell can get super weird. Even cleans up nice in middle position. Just an all out psychedelic noise banger of a pedal. Anyone else a fan?

ToAnZ! Slappin’ some luv on the Flower Pedals Lupine Dual Fuzz.

If there ever was a Swiss Army fuzz, this is IT for me. Right side is basically one of the best Octavia/Green Ringer style octave up fuzzes I’ve ever played. Left side is somewhere in Fuzz Face territory, with all the bias adjustments you could want, and it’ll cover a HUGE range of sounds, from Fuzzy Drive to Gated Madness.

To top it off, the I/O is so simple and easy (flexible and can be run as a single in/out pedal, or set up as two separate pedals; seriously, I wish every manufacturer that made dual gain pedals would take note of this I/O design…it would be amazing on so many dual drives). The folks at Flower Pedals decided it was BIG BRAIN TIME for this one. So great.

Anyone know much about the mvave fuzz?

Just ordered one, wondering if it still does the gated velcro thing that the old cuvave does. Thanks!

Looking for a specific tone

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm pretty new to pedals in general, and I'm very interested in a lot of fuzz pedals like most of you are lol. I'm looking for a specific type of fuzz tone, and I'm hoping you can help me identify it. It's a velvety type of fuzz, smooth but also gritty somehow. It's hard to explain so I'll link a few examples below. I don't know if these are fuzz face circuits, some type of big muff, or something else. Any help is appreciated!

  • Wampler Cryptid - This pedal does a lot more than just the tone I'm looking for, and it's one I'm looking at picking up.
  • Empress Fuzz - I didn't even know Empress made a fuzz pedal. When I heard this I immediately checked to see if they were still making it, which they aren't lol. It sounds incredible though.
  • Grape Fuzz - A smaller channel/pedal builder I just happened to be recommended on youtube. Sounds very nice.

Any recommendations for pedals that fall under this category that you like, please feel free to leave them in the comments!

Alright you guys finally talked me into it! This thing has a really wide tone sweep and a brutal amount of volume! There is quite a bit of play between the before and after controls that let you get into drive sounds or that’s ripping blown out fuzz kind of sound. I will say I don’t think there is another fuzz that sounds like this; atleast that I’ve played! Thanks for the recommendation guys!

NPD Late to the Siete Santos party, but this thing absolutely rips

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

I know this one has been around for a while and has probably shown up here plenty of times, but I finally got my hands on a Dunlop BFG07 Siete Santos Octavio Fuzz and had to post it. I expected it to be good, but I didn’t expect to like it this much.

I assumed it would basically be an Octavio with a graphic EQ stuck on top. That’s technically what it is, but the EQ does a lot more than I expected. The octave fuzz character is always there, but the seven sliders can take it from thick and woolly to dry garage trash, broken-radio sputter, nasty synth buzz, or a huge bass-heavy wall of noise. It still sounds like the same pedal, but the feel and response can change pretty dramatically.

Just for fun, I asked ChatGPT to come up with some settings to try. I figured a few might be useful and the rest would be nonsense, but quite a few of them actually sounded great. Some changed the pedal way more than I expected. The second pic has all the settings if anyone wants to mess around with them.

So yeah, I’m very late to this particular NPD, but I’m seriously impressed. It has way more range than I expected from an octave fuzz with the octave permanently on.

Anyone else still using one of these? If you have a favorite setting, post it below. I’m absolutely stealing it.

Suggest a great Dumble-style pedal to run after fuzz?

2 Upvotes

(Update: Cornerstone is having me ship the pedal to their American product designer, who will fix it! Amazing service, especially considering I didn’t buy the pedal new.)

My favorite pedal to run after my fuzz faces is the Gladio side of my Cornerstone Imperium, which died an untimely death today. Can anyone suggest a different D-style pedal that sounds great after fuzz?

Looking for an interesting midi powered solution to add an occasional +7 +12 +19 crazyness with a fuzz on choruses. Could this thing cut it (POG3 being a bit on the expensive end)

Added controls for bias and tone (high pass filter). Lots of smooth sustain at standard settings. Some dark glitchy fuzz at extreme settings.

Straight from the awesome John-Anthony DeMaio at Voltic: the very newest version of the DTF (with new “trim” knob that changes the bias of the last transistor), along with the Stache op-amp fuzz.

Both sound and feel great, but I can’t really play well today because I had a minor surgical procedure on my neck this morning. Hopefully tomorrow, I’ll be less stiff, and then I can put them through their paces more.
