This pedal produces fuzz in copious amounts. the fuzz sound is nice and full and sounds really natural and not so processed like some fuzzes can be. The octave up is the same and is great because you can get the octave from playing nearly anywhere on the neck. Playing chords in the octave-up mode just sounds like a big, gross mess, but that's not unexpected.

The sub knob and octave footswitch are a lot of fun and can produce awesome, full sounds. The series/parallel button is a great feature to get some fuzz from the bass end, but is difficult to dial in. In parallel, the sub octave kicks in right away and is already plenty at 8 o'clock, and in series, the sub octave needs to be cranked to get a workable bass octave fuzz. Just find your sweet spot.

Fuzz is all this thing does, so if you're looking for a light breakup fuzz, this isn't for you. There's lots of fuzz even with the knob turned all the way down, and after about 10 o'clock on the fuzz and volume knobs, there's very little audible fuzz and volume change. The sweep on both knobs maxes out pretty quick on this pedal, but, again, not a subtle fuzz box.

The box is a sparkley-purple... If you can get past that, everything else is great, it's been going strong back and forth for 2 month now, but looks and feels like it'll keep going for quite a while.

This was exactly the fuzz I was looking for the best price I could find in any other fuzz, so, for me, totally worth it.

I've had MXR pedals before and had to send one in. Customer support was efficient and friendly enough for my standards so no worries there.

This pedal really sticks out as it is and, looking closer, does a lot of things that I hadn't seen on any other similar pedals. I like options that are easy to access and if you do too, this is a great pedal.
