Never had a fuzz pedal before. This video made me get the TC Electronic Rusty Fuzz. It is ridiculously good!! And so cheap!! 10/10. Mind you, nothing feels cheap about this. The construction is solid and housed in an all-metal case. The tone is fantastic too!!

[BenKrisfield]

Paul Gilbert liked the Rusty Fuzz when he did the TC Electronic pedalboard build.

The Ram's Head is one of my favorite pedals ever. David Gilmore in a box plus so much more. It will sustain till the end of time.

[BladeDoomer]

The Carcosa is my all time favorite pedal.. It will bring forth the King in Yellow in you... True madness. Preferably with a Les Paul.

[CGCEifel]

The Carcosa is a very versatile choice. The switch in the middle btw is used to trim it for use with clean or dirty amps. And keep in mind that the Hi cut Pot is working counter clockwise. The second example made the pedal look far worse than it is. You gotta get a little into the interaction of the dials, or you get questionable sounds like this, sure.

Excellent job there "G". I think the DOD Carcosa having the brighter sound is my favorite. All of them were good except The General. To my ears it was too dark and muddy.

[rjo]

Carcosa voiced perfect for a band mix.

[cjsilvestremusic]

You look a lot like Yannis from Foals, who is a big user of Fuzz pedals.

I’ve got a rams head, band of gypsys and giygas. I just ordered the general cause I wanted a small, affordable germanium fuzz. Can’t wait to try it out. Great video!

[dariosaviors]

Great demo (and great amp...)
Just above the 100, i’d like to crank the Teisco Fuzz..
My favourites here: Carcosa and BM Ram’s head.

[Zwidawurzn]

Got the DOD Carcosa on my board for over a year now and i'm basically done with buying Fuzzes.
I was never really a Fuzz guy but when i want some Fuzz the Carcosa can deliver, from smooth low-gain fuzz to nasty gated insanity

[ptelseya]

Hey Guy, this demo is very excellent . In My opinion the first place the Big Muff, the second is the curcosa, but all of them have killer fuzz tones! Thanks for shear this video:)

[PendelSteven]

Personally I like the fuzzhybridpedals as well, like the Rat and the Amber Overdrive.

[charlescdt]

When yall going to do pedals and boards for Bass?

[FilipeSalgueiroo]

Dude, wasn't expecting for you to play Cliffs of Dover, cool one! Nice pedals as well, I really liked the Fender for its versatility!

[Phaidrus]

Some phat sounds here! I'd say the General and Big Muff for their phatness.

[indifferentuniverse]

I enjoyed all of them for diff reasons but fuzz rulz!

[dzungpham]

Outlaw Effects - The General Germanium is Rowin G-fuzz, they rename, repaint and sell it 4 times the price in US/EU.

[oldasrocks]

tc based the Rusty Fuzz on the Boss FZ-3

The Carcosa is a blinged out Maestro Fuzz Tone

[kevinkemp]

what song were you playing during the outlaw fuzz starting at 1:46 in the video. I have that guitar riff in my head and I cant figure it out!?!?!?!?!? Please Help!
