SF300 Super Fuzz : Budget powerhouse

By now it's universally known that this is a near-perfect replica of the BOSS FZ-2. I'd be tempted to say that "for the money" it's great, but honestly, if this pedal had a solid metal enclosure, I'm sure people would buy it at twice or three times the price without batting an eye.

Even with the plastic enclosure, it won't break or crack easily, so I wouldn't worry about that.

It's flexible, it sounds fantastic, and the two-band EQ is immensely useful for tweaking the sound to suit your pickups and amp perfectly. It's a no brainer if you like fuzz, and if you don't, this is a great place to start, since you get two classic fuzz sounds and tweakability for days. I've used mine in everywhere in the signal chain to very good effect. The scooped sound is great post-reverb for walls of sound, and the octavey/mid-pushed mode makes for a solid solo tone.

If you're thinking about it, grab it!
