Seriously. This can go anywhere in the chain. You have a Wah pedal you want to put behind it? EASY. Are you playing an outdoor festival in New Mexico in July? EASY. Are you playing the North Pole Blues Festival? EASY.
I Love this thing!

Great demo thank you. It would have been good to hear the fuzz after the Protein too - it seemed to get lost once the OD was turned on and I could only really hear the Protein then. But, really lovey sounds.

@chrisjs6123 3 жыл бұрын

Just got mine. It’s amazing. Surprisingly pretty, definitely less fuzzy than some fuzzes but it’s awesome. Stacks perfectly with a benson preamp. My octahive is staying on the board but they play so well together. Edit: I’ve not seen this channel before. HOLY HELL you can play my friend. You can really really play.

Thanks so much! Ya it is very low gain...unless you dime the volume, but then it is too loud haha

Sounds great. I’ve yet to see a demo of somebody using a blowdrier to see whether it really adjusts automatically to sudden high temperature conditions as tou would find somerimes when playing outside under the sun.

How much volume does this pedal have on tap? Fuzz is by far my favorite effect and I absolutely adore a properly made fuzz face style fuzz, but another big issue fuzz faces can have is cutting through a mix

Quite a bit, in the middle of playing with the prs I demo the clean boost function is has, really cool

a technical question. Do I get the same functions as the Benson Germanium Boost (green pedal) by setting the Benson germanium fuzz as a clean boost?

which of the benson germanium fuzz or the kingtone miniGE do you prefer?

@BuddyBlues 3 жыл бұрын

You're killing me with this one.. haha very very very tough choice. The Kingtone has more tonal """"options"""" with the switch, but is heavily affected by outside factors due to its very vintage nature. If I had a gun to my head I'd go with the benson solely because of how care-free it is. Throw it anywhere on your pedal board and it is going to sound the same

@saigonproducer 2 жыл бұрын

What other fuzzes are good for glassy cleans (volume knob roll off) and low-mid gain crunch? Would you say this is the best one for that?

@BuddyBlues 2 жыл бұрын

Hello! I don't think this is even close to being the best at cleaning up.. Isle of Tone Haze 67 is the best that I've ever tried. The fuzz in the triple.trouble by sabbadius (my newest video), kingtone GE mini fuzz etc.. those are all other examples

Buffer after fuzz? You meant buffer before fuzz? Every pedal have some sort of buffer when ON, so if no buffer after fuzz, that means no pedals after a fuzz pedal? Makes no sense.

@BuddyBlues Жыл бұрын

I have no idea what part of the video you’re referring to. For me, Buffers AFTER fuzz, always. In fact EVERY THING after fuzz. Fuzz first, always.

@limerot Жыл бұрын

@@BuddyBlues Yes, that is what I meant. In the intro you say no buffer behind fuzz. Behind is after. As I wrote, that makes no sense. Of course you can have buffers behind a fuzz, so why tell don't do that to the loving public?
