This has me interested.

What's the "fat" control? lowend boost of sorts?

The FAT knob changes the bass signal into the fuzz which makes the tone thicker.
This works to make for a fuller FF sound. When you dial it back the tone gains clarity
and seemingly more midrange, a tighter more overdrive/fuzz rock sound that plays better with
a dirty amp or stacking pedals, basically to cut through more with less sloppy low end (when you need that).
