Thread Starter | Univox Fuzz Pedal I've been trying to pick one of these up for around a year now... Much loved by Hendrix etc. Am I barking up the wrong tree. I'm taking it by being pipped at the post four times in a row, they might be wirth having in the arsenal.

| The Orange & Blue Super Fuzz with the huge square footswitch? I would *kill* to have one of those! Not because they sound particularly good; they're actually a bit cheesey in that cheap '60's clipped diode sort of way, if the one I played 20 years ago was any indication ...but they just look SO FREAKIN' COOL! |

Thread Starter | Well Ive looked at both, but I recently missed out on a very early orange mint in box, but was absolutelyu pantsed at the end by a couple of people I can only guess were collectors. I like the red too, I guess I'm probably just hankering afeter the "  look at this factor" although I like that sort of cheap 60s garage band sound. |

| I bought a Unifuzz a while back and sold it. The circuit is the same as the superfuzz but it's ac powered and doesn't have a footswitch. It sounded ok but was a bit too noisy to be useful. I also have a Black Cat superfuzz clone. It's a little harsher compared the the vintage univox. |

| they're great. it's also the Live At Leeds fuzz... that's all the recommendation anyone needs! I hesitate to mention it only because it's a secret weapon I was hoping not everyone would find out about.

| I dont think the Voodoo labs superfuzz is a superfuzz copy, its actually a copy of something else. I just checked the site and it says its a copy of a Jordan Electronics Bosstone. |
