It has some octave action going on while the others don't. Also the fuzz 2 mode is definitely unlike other fuzz pedals.

That's because it's based on the Boss FZ-2 which is based on the Univox Super Fuzz and has no relation to big muffs at all. Doesn't really belong in this comparison of muffs, but a comparison of different fuzzes/circuits maybe.

Which one do you mean?

@@MadebyMiike First riff

Yeah it's real bad for single string/solo stuf! Still a keeper though :)

@@EXSENTRIX cheers lad will give that a go

Samuel Cramphorn I’d recommend you feel better bc I would NOT recommend the Hoof, actually 🤷🏼‍♂️ lol I’m sure it can work great in some settings, but having played one just in a STORE it didn’t feel like it would cut in a mix 😬 lol Seemed even flatter/more two-dimensional than most Muffs! Again, apparently it’s great in SOME contexts otherwise it wouldn’t have the reputation it does, I suppose, but yeah, don’t feel bad saving your money. Good Muffs can be had at good prices.

@@yobhsiFehT I bought the Friedman fuzz fiend in the end. Beautiful

personally i like the gain at 12 o'clock and below on fuzz 1, running into some light breakup on the neck pickup. it's a pretty good, warm octave fuzz sound when played above the 10th fret

It’s definitely another kind of fuzz., compared to the others,

As it happens I ended up using mine just in the ”Boost“ mode (stacked with another overdrive) which actually sounds really nice as I couldn't quite warm up to any of the two Fuzz modes (no matter how I set the knobs). Guess I haven't yet found the right pedal for the fuzz sound I've got in mind...

Maybe the EHX Russian Big Muff sounds better because it's the first one in the chain of effects.

That's what I think too! 🤘🏼

JHS also isn't a muff at all. It's a Tone Bender mkiii with bias knob, i have a copy of it.

Super Fuzz? to my ears it lacks any note definition, easily the worst one from the bunch

@@HorvatIvan That's the whole point of Super fuzz. It's for sludge/doom/stoner and nothing else. Think of Electric Wizard.

@@roy-batty If that's the case I stand corrected. I can imagine some cases it could be useful. Just not for me I guess haha

@@HorvatIvan It's super niche, I'll give you that. :D

Sure. And somebody here doesn't know it, suggesting it "should be modded" or so... Bender is unique and flexible. Especially with this bias knob. I have one, and have muffs. But I'd rather go with Bender, 'cause of sound variations it gives

Your mom buys you pedals? LOL! I wish my mom does this 😀

Lol, the fact that you seem to like the Behringer kind of invalidates your opinion of JHS, who make FAR better pedals than Behringer (obviously) and many other companies. But I also like the Ibanez and Big Muffs.

@@marike1100 The Behringer one is a different kinda circuit, I don't say that I like, for this type of circuit and sound I prefer DOD Carcosa

@@bastianmaoro8278 the Behringer is a copy of the classic FZ-2 by Boss

JHS is also a different circuit. It's Tone Bender mkiii... And you estimate it as being muff. This way you can also say muff is better than maestro fuzz or fuzz face

Mooer Buff

Hey mate. There is a "My favourite fuzz pedals" video upcoming where I talk ;-) Thanks for for your feedback, will talk more in the future! Have a great weekend!

thats how I hear it too! Mooer is suprinsgly great

I really love the Russian one. David Gilmour and Billy Corgan all day long.

That's actually my exact line up, I've owned the mooer triangle buff for about a year and it's great especially for its size and price. It also cuts in a mix just a bit better than the triangle muff but the triangle muff and Russian muff have heavier fuller low end which sounds massive on their own but completely get lost in a mix. But with a 10 band eq in the loop I can get my triangle buff to sound like any fuzz I want (same thing woukd work great if you own the green Russian or triangle muff). I really want to not like the Mooer triangke buff so I can build or buy a "real" muff but I just can justify it since the triangle buff performs so well. I build pedals btw so I'll likely build a zvex fuzz factory next then down the road use a 1590BB enclosure to house a triangle muff, Russian muff/rams head muff and an op amp muff all in the same enclosure. I'd have to draw up a circuit schematic from scratch which I'm confident I could do accurately but I don't have a breadboard yet so when I build my own pedal designs right now I've kept them simple so trouble shooting isn't a nightmare. With a breadboard I'll be able to do bigger more origional circuits with more confidence. My klon clone and the 100% from scratch and origional treble booster i built sound amazing and they will NEVER leave my board (the treble booster is loosely based on a Brian May style treble boost but designed around a low noise transistor that performs much better than anything else I've used, it makes the pedal less noisey without any character loss. In fact I'd strongly argue it sounds better than any other treble booster transistor commonly used. I built the pedal to have a shelf of different transistors inside the pedal and I put a 3 pin socket where the transistor goes so they can easily be swapped out to get differnt characteristics but the MPSA18 always is superior in every way but it's still lots of fun to try the different transistors for inspiration. I also added a level control at the end of the circuit after the gain control that only lowers the level a little so you are able to get the full power of the treble booster even if you need it to be a little bit lower in volume. 90% or more of treble boosters only sound good with the gain all the way up but that gets loud so having a level control that just takes off a bit is perfect(i just used a linear pot so it's a slow taper until the end where it quickly falls away, normally that would be bad but for this application it was perfect). And I decided to go with a three way dpdt on off on switch for a mid boost, stock treble boost, or full range bass boost.) I also mod pretty much all my pedals for extra versatility but I never sacrifice stock functionality for a mod. If I do any mods they are all wired to switches that can be turned on(modded) or off (stock). For example I added two bass boosts to my ts9 which works great with single coils if you want a warmer fuller more transparent drive. And my proco rat 2 I originally put an lm308 op amp in but it lost versatility so I did the ruetz mod but on an external trim pot That is selected by a switch, I also did that mod to the lower gain cap an resistor pair next to the ruetz mod's high gain cap an resistor pair. So each pair can be selected via on off on switch for stock, cap an resistor pair removed from the circuit(ruetz mod), or selected to be fed through a variable resistor in the form of a pair of external potentiometers(that allows you to dial in the amount of high end gain on one potentiometer and the amount of low end gain on the other so it can do stock tones and ruetz tones and thanks to the variable resistors/pots it can do everything in between also. That way it doesn't have to be crazy bright and thin like stock or completly warm with less gain like ruetz, it can be selected for stock or Ruetz. I find that dialing in the high gain cap/resistor pair potentiometer to be at the ruetz setting then bringing it back up just a little is the perfect sweet spot. At that setting you really can get a great overdrive tone. The reason I put back the OP07 op amp is because with my custom mods you can easily get the poor slew rate sound of an lm308 or choose to get the more efficient precise sound/benefits of the OP07(since the OP07 is more efficient an versatile it makes more sense to use it for versatility and use the mods to dial in the poor slew rate sound of an lm308. If the pedal was stock I'd probably prefer the lm308 but with the mods the OP07 is excellent and can cover ALL the rat tones. Wow, what a rant that was. Sorry lol, I love talking about this stuff an easily get carried away.

Ibanez i happen to own and it sounds stunning

Not properly used in that video. Seek out camparing it with another super fuzz clones. It's amazing for particular tone of doom and heavy stoner things.

@@sergeyv4908 Yeah, for doom and for other tones it is great. I think the 1.5 setting is the best on that.
