Zvex Wooley Mammoth, originally designed as a bass fuzz, has been used by several known players in this role.The Mastotron was made as a guitar equivalent, but because it has more controls, it loses some of the harmonics and brutality.This is why it's common to keep these circuits as simple as possible, as every time you add a switch or pot, you lose something which needs to be again compensated for.
Zvex are one of the builders that opened all the doors; when you're shopping for fuzz, it's always better to go with the specialists, - Basic Audio, Skinpimp, Jext Telez , Reuss, Fredric,- all in.
Absolutely love my Carcosa bought a few years ago. So many tones from it and not just a face melting fuzz one-trick pony. Glad you've got one Budda.
That’s 100% right. It’s a great pedal
Man you did a fantastic job explaining these pedals. I've had a fuzz factory a long time and have watched videos, but sometimes it takes a player that really knows a certain pedal.
Thanks. I’m glad it helped
I’ve had a fuzz factory for 20+ years and it’s not an easy pedal. I sort of know how to use it, to get three different types of fuzz. It sounds good but I don’t think is very good for a live situation
The Carcosa is one of the most underrated fuzz pedals. Great sounds Budda.
That’s totally true. It’s a great versatile pedal
I LOVE my Carcosa
Me too
I feel like it has a pretty dedicated fanbase and that's good enough for me. I like to have a weapon that not everyone has 😉
That’s worth it
I love my Carcosa Fuzz! It is extremely versatile. From cleanboost to extreme distortion an fuzz, everything is possible.
Thanks for the video!
It’s a lovely pedal indeed and not very expensive
The Carcosa is my all time favourite overdrive, distortion and fuzz pedal........all in one pedal.
It’s a great one
You really have a handle on these pedals. I've seen too many demos from people who absolutely do not understand the Fuzz Factory. That being said, that Carcosa is a lot more versatile than other demos have led me to believe.
I loved the carcosa. No the same as the fuzz factory but it is really great From clean boost to Velcro fuzz
that Carcosa covers a LOT of ground from boost to full on splatter - most underrated dirt pedal ever - I think Tom C's black Spiral is a high end version of the Carcosa?
I love the carcosa
It's super fun on bass as well. I did a video going through the settings on bass and it really does everything from boost to subtle drive all the way to destruction =D
Great!!!!
Your love of fuzz is a beautiful thing, my friend 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks for the breakdown! I’d like to throw in another velcro fuzz for everyone to consider: Wright Sounds Fuzz Stang. The 4 knob purple version is the one I have. I also have the FF and had the chance to compare both. While the FF wins for having the ability of giving you the versatility of going from Fuzz Face , Octave Fuzz and madness tones, the Fuzz stang can give you pure velcro and volume on tap.
i did not know anything about different type of fuzzes. I did not like them. Now I like them a lot, they are a source of creativity and inspiration. Thanks Budda to open this box!!
It’s pure magic and inspiration
I had my eye on a carcosa for many years, it just a versatile fuzz, it can do what i want, it gates, it velcros, and can function as great overdrive or even clean boost. I had a JHS 3 Series Fuzz, but made my switch to the carcosa. Best band for the buck. This review total convinced me
It’s super great. It’s on one of my boards right now
Great pedal choices, love them all. I purchased the Keely Fuzz Bender in the end and never looked back
Great tip
Eu adoro esse estilo de fuzz, por forte influência do Jack White, mas não sabia que existia uma categoria chamada velcro fuzz. Me referia e ele como fuzz "crocante", mas ninguém entendia bem o que eu queria dizer. Mais um belo vídeo, Budda!
Muito obrigado amigo
I have all of these. Well, not the JAM, but a couple of other nice fuzz faces. Really nice demo of the capabilities of each pedal! Awesome improv playing too!! Really enjoyed that. Another velcro fuzz that I would recommend is the Red Witch Fuzz God II or IV. Very versatile and can get quite heavy. Make sure to play with the internal gain trim pot too. Also, my Fuzz Factory was modded to include a switch like the Fat Fuzz Factory for heavier tones. It's fantastic and quite easy to do. Would recommend that too for more bottom end on the Fuzz Factory, especially when dialing up the gate. Cheers!
Thanks for the tip
Isso ai que eu curto, ver vários pedias Fuzz comparados, belo vídeo.
Muito obrigado
Fuzz Factory does not cut the sound for any reason. It is just a knob configuration. Make the knobs stays in a certain config, it will happen. Just move them a little bit, it will not happen. Know how to deal with the pedal and it will respond you as you wish, man. Fat Fuzz Factory is amazing! Best Fuzz pedal ever
I know that!! But it has that option, that no other fuzz has
Great! And I Love DOD, I think it’s incredibly versatile, like a 250 to fuzz territory
That’s right
DOD doesn't get the love that ehx or boss get, but they've had some surprisingly great offerings over the years
Yes they had. But they were less consistent over the years
What a great guitar Thanks for the demo
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love this stuff!! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks a lot
Gotta love the Carcosa! Holy crap! Nice work Budda!
Thanks a lot
Ive got several...
including
2 from Analog Man & they're very cool.
But the Carcosa does the spitty thang in spades & for the money...its genius
Ive almost picked up the FF but it's a bit "over the top" for my style and needs to be reined in by someone that understands the controls to make it reliably useful... still...that can be the beauty if it for some!
😂
👌👌👌
Great stuff man! Love the experimentation!
🙏🙏
Just got the Carcosa. I’d also recommend the MXR Badass Variac Fuzz.
I tried it but it didn’t click with me
Great sound gonna try to build mosrite fuzzrite. Your pedal sounds awesome 👍
Thanks a lot
Leave it to Budda to bring the beast out of the Carcosa. Great intro. I’m enjoying this pedal throughly-the tonal versatility is through the roof.
It’s a killer panel and when I’m on it it was even cheaper than it is right now
great demo man!
Thanks
The fuzz factory can make so many different fuzz sounds. in my opinion the huge flaw is that it doesn't have an option to save them as presets you can cycle thru. I may be alone in this but I would rather stomp my foot and change sounds than get down and start tweaking mid song and hopefully remember where all 5 knobs go for the particular sound I wanna call up. Still a cool pedal tho
I wish it had an eq shaping
I have yet to learn to appreciate velcro fuzzes. At the moment i am at a point where i am almost ready to replace my fuzz with a DS-1
Two different things. Play with the guitar’s volume. There’s so many tones right there
The Carcosa is intriguing to me because it seems to be able to do the squished velcro sound WITHOUT gating the sustain completely off like most bias-adjustable velcro fuzzes do.
I don’t really understand what you mean!?!
@@BuddaGuedes The fuzzes that get that velcro sound do it by having the bias between the clipping diodes unbalanced. On ones such as mine that has a bias adjust control, you can go from a smooth fuzz to a spitty velcro sound by adjusting the control to "unbias" the diodes, but one of the side effects of that is you get that gated effect, where your note only sustains for a short time, then suddenly cuts off. I was just saying that the Carcosa somehow gets that squashed, compressed attack when you use the "After" control to unbias the diodes, but *without* losing sustain from a sudden gating of the signal.
Ah ok! I get it! It’s funny how it works actually
Fuzz is the best noise box. People who hate fuzz either didn’t find their flavor of fuzz or don’t know how to use it.
It’s the magic pedal
Great video. Thank you.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Put a clean boost after the Mastatron, or in front if you like things rough. The Night Owl Edison or the Sushi Box Westinghouse
Both the Mastatron and the Carcosa are fantastic on bass
Thanks
Holy crap did I miss the last 5 boats?! I payed close to 200 for the dang Carcosa hahaha.
Favorite pedal tho!
I've found that the Carcosa's velcro increases with the hi-cut as well since I've gotten it!
Wow!! That’s really expensive
Muito bom o episódio, Bhudda! Eu tenho uma versão chinesa desse Carcosa que se chama Hairy Fuzz. Rs
Boa. Não conhecia
I have the Mastotron and I love the sound but I find to get unity gain you have to put it at full and still it sounds quiet. I ended up getting the Red Witch Fuzz God lV and it does all the Velcro goodness does but has more volume on tap.
I’ll have to check that
@@BuddaGuedes definitely a great pedal for that velcro sound. I also have the Fuzz Factory and it's killer for that but the Red Witch is not as extreme and it's easier to get a good sound. But i still do love my Zvex stuff.
I’ll have to checkboxes out.
The Red Witch Fuzz God IV is definitely the next pedal I'm going to get - I tried one the other day and it's amazing
It was the guitar solo in Boston Rag that made me fall in love with fuzz.
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Olá, como vai? Como estava cada knob do Fuzz Factory no início do vídeo, por favor? Achei o som maravilhoso, mas não consegui reproduzir aqui. Obrigado! =)
Tudo depende de tudo. Da guitarra do amp, da equalização…
i couldent decide between the carcosa and the zvex so i got them both. now im twice the fuzz lord.
That’s a smart decision
Valco should make a Velcro fuzz, and call it THE VALCRO!!!
Eh! Eh! That’s a great idea
Hey man! Just wondering where did you get the guitar strap from? Mind sharing? Anyways, great vid! Cheers
It’s a right on Strap.
Is it like a plain seat belt strap? Couldn’t find it on their website, and sorry if this is out of topic haha. Thanks again for sharing!
That’s strange !!!!
I have the Carcosa,but don't really understand how to set the volume ,if i set it as the amp or set it more volume and then go back with the guitar vol.I like the buzzzzz so if I roll it back I'm gonna loose it
O don’t understand what you mean!
Ok.better set the pedal volume as the amp.vol? First in chain ?
69 euros? WOW, is that a price of a used one? Bought one today for 109 and still happy :D
It was new but they hot up in price a lot
I'll sell my od and dist pedals and get the boss od200, but my carcosa...no way to get it away from me. Carcosa will go in my pedalboard forever...😎🤟
It’s a great pedal!!
DBA super fuzz gun gets you to velcro land
Thanks a lot
Cool video
🙏
What are your thoughts on fab fuzz from Danelectro ??
I have never played one
kliptonite - stone deaf, what do you think about this pedal?
I've never played one. I'm sorry
The tc electronic rusty fuzz does this sound.
I have never played that one
@@BuddaGuedes it's a good affordable option
Carcosa was 69€? In 2024 Thomann has them for 119€ :(
When I bought it was way cheaper
@@BuddaGuedes I'm choosing my first fuzz pedal, it's between TC Rusty/big muff ram's head/Carcosa (47/98/119 €). I see they're all different but the carcosa might not be such a steal as it was..
The Carcosa is the fuzz for non fuzz lovers. I love it!
It’s a great pedal
Are you Brazilian?
I’m Portuguese
Try Basic Audio.
I don’t know tyat
I second that. Basic Audio make great fuzz pedals!.
Aion fx flare fuzz machine.
Thanks
@@BuddaGuedes it's a pedal kit you build yourself. Or buy completed.
Wow!!! Where can I check it out?
@@BuddaGuedes ua-cam.com/video/fsf3P9H04Qk/v-deo.html
Thanks
Dude it should be zipper fuzz.
Ah ah ah
I hate velcro fuzz. Kills all sustain.
It’s a different purpose
I hate steak. Tastes nothing like skittles
Exactly.It makes you play differently.Gain and sustain can not only make you lazy, but make everything you play sound the same.
