Fuzz for bass and guitar

[Kozmicma]

Hi, I'm on a quest for a new fuzz that is top notch for my bass but want also a fuzz well suited for my guitar. I already have a Pharaoh and a Superfuzz for playing guitar. Both good with the bass but I'm looking for reknown fuzz for my bass playing. Here are my favs :

Darkglass Duality
Walrus Audio Jupiter
Death by Audio Apocalypse (or Fuzz War)
Dwarfcraft Baby Thunder

Anyone had the chance to compare some of them? Which one would you choose?

When I started my fuzz search many of the learned effects freaks here pointed me straight toward this. I'm glad they did. My fuzz search is over. The guitar demos are pretty sweet too.

Mmmmmmmmm ...... still has that new pedal smell.....

If you like your pharaoh, I'd consider the sarcophagus. It's a pharaoh and LSTR in one box. So basically two fuzzes in one! I use it for both my guitar and basses. Sounds INCREDIBLE when both channels are turned on

Honestly, I can't say but I'm interested in people's thoughts on them. I'm just now into a project that will justify me to experiment with fuzz and other pedals, so I very recently picked this puppy up >

Walrus Audio Jupiter. The magic fuzz. When i do need the fuzz - i step on it.

 

[Korladis]

Dunwich Wizard Fuzz or custom.

Or one of a variety of pedals by Fuzzrocious.

Haven’t compared them but the Duality has been on my board for about two years now. Really like it. Great by itself and paired with other pedals. try it with an analog octave before it, chorus, modulated delay, even tremelo after it. When i use it by itself I tend to have the Duality knob at about 1 o’clock. If I’m pairing it with others pedals I like to turn the Duality knob all the way counter clockwise so it’s all the gated fuzz.

I love my mxr submachine, both with and without the octave up and down. Sounds just as great both on guitar and bass.

Fuzz on bass is very different to fuzz on guitar. Generally, fuzz on bass needs to be more ex stream and less mid focused baked in EQ. Bass fuzzes tend to go a bit too deep on a guitar and are was to heavy. But some do both quite well.

I really dig ehx bass big muff pi on both bass and guitar

 

[Nighttrain1127]

I would suggest an Iron Ether Oxide if you can get your hands on one

Other than muff-type stuff, the Catalinbread SFT v2 is pretty good for both guitar and bass. Think big fat stoner rock Ampeg sounds.

Plan on grabbing one of these bad boys in a couple weeks!
The left circuit is an overdrive/boost and the right is a fuzz!

Another vote for the MXR Submachine.
It rocks my house, it frightens my band (which I love) and it's dope as f**k....

i use this for my bass or guitar ... Dr Scientist ' the elements ' ... a few modes/switches / eq / etc ...
it seems to have fairly endless possibilities if one uses their imagination .. ! and the exp pedal / blend makes it very versatile ' on the fly ' ... !
