Anyone else liking them aside from me? I did try the Hoof fuzz and I must say that the compressed youtube clips don't do it justice. It's a very versatile fuzz for those who are looking for that Muff tone. I'm not really a fuzz guy but i'm really surprised how you can dial it to be creamy or very punchy. But throughout it's gain range it remains huge sounding just as some have stated in the reviews.

I would have bought the fuzz but... I need a phaser now more than another drive pedal. Which led me to the Grand Orbiter. It's sound is closer to a small stone than a phase 90 to my ears which for me is very nice coz i can still hear my fundamental tone cut thru. It doesn't change the feel of the tone when it is engaged unless you turn the rate to full, of course. For it's price I like the fact that you have the option to keep your dry signal or turn it off for a cool vibrato effect. And it's got a wide range of speed and it can get really deep or subtle. I also use it as a vibe so I place it in front of my drive pedals.
 
What he said. They are now the official distributor. I also tried the white light OD but not so much. I was so engrossed with the Hoof running through it( I always judge a fuzz not on a stand-alone basis but on how it reacts with overdriving amps or an OD with a considerable amount of gain dialed in). It has this clear open-sounding OD sound going on as opposed to a nasally TS tone and it has a considerable amount of gain in it. Didnt get to try the dynamics with a volume knob though.
 
Thks guys.

Edgie, good review. Did you come across the Tone Reaper by any chance? I am a big fuzz fan especially the Big Muff sounds... Now you're making me wanna try the Hoof Fuzz! (edit: the sample tracks on the official site sounds great! Now I just gotta sell before I buy any more fuzzes-2 devi ever's, the peach fuzz dano clone, this zebranalogic od fuzz, Subdecay noise box, and turbo rat) )=

The US$ price listed on the site seems to be a deterent though...
