I’m mystified how this isn’t a more well-known pedal, it’s about the most perfect fuzz tone to my ear. The sub switch takes it from a high, sizzling tone that cuts through a mix like a saw, right through to the noise of an earthquake. It’s in a similar realm to the Carcosa (which I reckon is probably the best value fuzz ever made, really versatile) but a bit weirder and heavier. Joyous.

Cool! I wonder, how does it compare to an EQD Hoof?

I’ve not played a Hoof, but from what I know of it, the Hoof is more of a straight-up Muff circuit. There’s a lot more tone-shaping on the Zvex due to the sub and PW control.
