This is an extremely well-engineered pedal, but I don't know that I'm its target demo.
It seems like a fuzz pedal for people who really hate dealing with fuzz pedals. It's got a ton of filters. A lot of those switches that I assumed were changing values in the circuit (like most fuzz pedals) are apparently engaging filters. Like the "Edge-Smooth" switch and the "Tone 60's-70's" switch both sound like RC or RLC filters. The "Tight" control sounds like a high-pass filter. I'm pretty sure the "Germanium-Silicon" switch is a filter, as well, because I don't see a germanium transistor in the pedal, but I may be missing it.
That said, it's a very stable pedal. I tried it with the Steinberger and the Tinsel Tart and it does the job great with whatever pickups you're using and cleans up with the guitar's Volume knob.
The Boost can be switched into an Octave Boost and it's really cool-sounding, but it's also really, really bright. Of course, there are three effects loops on this box, all of which are switchable internally for pre/post operation. There's one that engages when you kick the Fuzz on. There's one that engages when the Boost comes on. There's also one that engages when you bypass the pedal, so you could put something like a Tube Screamer in the bypass loop and switch between overdrive and fuzz just by engaging the fuzz. So an EQ in the Boost loop could even out the crazy going on there...but I don't own an EQ pedal.
Anyway, pretty cool stuff.

We were told strictly not to take photos of Cubans in uniform, but not one to miss a photo opportunity I asked this guy if it was OK. He seemed a bit bemused, but agreed.

Practising loose with these little cat studies. The originals are a mess...not too much angst about result. Then playing in edit a little and create something between the doodle and computer.
I bought this from Fuzz. He custom painted it, and for me it has a value beyond words or money.
I gotta say - not only was the art perfect, the price was too.

Fuzz is a great bloke and he'll hook you up with quality art at a good price.
