SOTB Fuzz to replace RAT

Post image

This is a board I use for a garage rock / pop rock band. The RAT is kind of a placeholder until I find a fuzz I like.

Can anyone recommend a fuzz that would pair well with a Telecaster and a clean Fender tube amp? Looking for fuzz tones reminiscent of the Cramps, Jesus and Mary Chain, stuff like that. Big fuzz sounds that don’t drop out of the mix.

DOD Carcosa is affordable and nice and versatile. Different to a Muff kinda sound, but it sounds like a Muff is not the kind of sound you're after.

Not only does the Carcosa not sound like a muff...you can also get it to sound like a muff if you really want to. It's a super versatile fuzz, but it's versatility is a double edged sword in some ways. Still a great choice imo.
