That could be rad.
Let us know if you do
Sidenote: I think Nick may have done a run of Germ Fuzz Thrones at some point. Hit him up?

I totally would but I saw how much the last Fuzz Throne cost that fuzzlounge guy on instagram and I do NOT have Fuzz Throne money lol

There are definitely fuzzes that prefer slightly overdriven amps and those that prefer clean amps. I think Muffs sound best with a clean solid state amp. Tone Benders can go either way. Fuzz Face-based circuits need at least a touch of amp OD (and I try to keep it down to just a touch because I want to hear fuzz, not OD). Most of my fuzzes sound more generic with the high-output pickups on my Baritone, but the Meatbox clone loves them.

I kind of perplexed about the choices of one-knob fuzzes, because I have an ILF-er offering to make me a clone, and I've always wanted a pedal with a one-knobber on one side, and a stompable volume control on the other. Colorsound? Meathead? Ritual? I know htat they're not that different from each other. My favorite sound-wise in demos is the Alien Hate Fuzz, but I'm not sure anyone knows the exact components. what's the one-knobber to go for?

I swear I got mine on preorder for a reasonable price.

It could be cheaper then Johns. He just wanted to go all out on it with $9 pots, full turret board, ect

Ive built $185 4 knob FTs as well.

Welp, the inquisitive email has gone out!

Yeah there you go.
Thanks, Nick!
I have a 4 knob and it's rad.
Ive also had a Dunwich one knob.
It was also the goods.

Finaly, I'll get another Penny Padals Fingerprint Noir.
I should never have sold this awesome fuzz.

Can't believe no-one has mentioned algal bloom / doom bloom yet.

Ended up with a creepyface, it's exactly what I wanted.

I recommend the Built By Ryan Southwest Terror fuzz. It's based off a Mountainking Megalith and is heavy as shit. I love it. I play it every day.
