I got a MkIII silicon diode Tonebender - low notes don't 'crap out' when you play them fast, like they do on a lot of fuzzes - they keep clear. And you don't have to mess with 'clean mix' or all of that nonsense....

I was gonna say blunderbuss surprisingly has a lot of note definition (for a muff), but I mostly want to agree with people saying either algal bloom (buy mine psst) or clean blend

The crimson drive while not a fuzz, has some fuzzy characteristics with great note definition.

Thanks everyone! I'd already been GASsing for an algal/doom bloom, now i've got more reasons (but no dough)!

Keep em coming!

Yeap.

I came in to say Tonebenders are my fave of the big 3 for that very reason, awesome note clarity. I have a switchable germanium Mk I.V/Mk II Pro clone and it's my fave over both my Analog Man NKT275 White Dot Sunface and my BAT LSTR by a good margin.

Agreed, its live having 3 or 4 really good fuzz boxes in one package.

I had an Algal Bloom but we didn't get along, I always found it kinda shrill and thin sounding no matter how I set it. Clusterfuzz is the tits :!!!:

I think that's the first time I've ever read anything slightly negative about the Algal Bloom
