Boss FZ-2 for me. Does the Superfuzz thing great, plus has the somewhat random boost setting, which when paired up with something marshally is an absolutely beastly sound! All that in the usual bullet proof boss design.
Also have the Behringer clone of it, which much like a lot of their Boss clones, is almost spot on sonically, if not construction wise.

How to take Octave Fuzz ferocity and bring it to a new level: stack with an EHX Double Muff on the Double setting with both levels turned all the way up. So far, it's made my Blue Box ferocious, My Sub Machine almost Shin-Ei thick, and my Super Unpleasant Companion sounds like it can level a continent on any setting.

That looks rad. But they're all over $500.00 on Reverb.

Those cheesy knobs make them look like they should only be $250.*

They're a bit of a pain to clone but they're based on the foxx, which isn't so bad to clone/find clones of.

Well, shit. I just bought a backup Danelectro French Toast, which is, more or less, a Foxx Tone Machine. So, yay me.MechaBulletBill wrote: ↑Wed Jun 20, 2018 10:34 amThey're a bit of a pain to clone but they're based on the foxx, which isn't so bad to clone/find clones of.

I've always liked the octave setting on my Lovetone Ring Stinger better than anything else I've used. It just has this character to it that nothing else seems to match.

Re: What is you favorite Octave Fuzz?
Yeah, I keep coming back to that. I almost pulled the trigger on a Basic Audio Superfuzz because it's so versatile, but I doubt it would replace anything on my board or that it would be better than the Ring Stinger.i love sharin foo wrote: ↑Mon Jun 25, 2018 6:50 pmI've always liked the octave setting on my Lovetone Ring Stinger better than anything else I've used.
