Honey Pot Fuzz : Great fuzz tone and free noise gate included

Samples of the tone are abundant so I'll pass; what you won't hear in sound samples is how the pedal is EXTREMELY silent, even at the hardest setting. Compared to the distortion's base hum of my four guitar amps and the Metal Zone pedal, this effect is more silent than all.

I have a great Strat clone with classic Fender 57/62 pickups, the most shimmering of all, but not stacked, so they hum badly with moderate distortion, and almost unbearably with highest gain. So I had left it to nearly clean tones only but the Honey Pot allows for harshest sound without the irritating buzz, and now the guitar is used more.

If you are stuck with low gain because of noisy single coil pickups this is your savior. You can play hard rock and metal and forget the hum of old days. At the minimal setting the fuzz acts like a gentle crunch, gives more presence and bite to the bare clean tone.

The jacks lock very positively with good clicks, and the pedal drives so little current I left the rechargeable battery several weeks. Only the super short screws are a bit annoying but I made knurled replacement screws so no need for a screwdriver anymore. If you do that, beware that the screws must be only 4mm or 5mm deep or they will hit components inside.

The build is very strong, the foot switch is tough and positive, the knobs are not scratchy, no,issues. I can't insist too much on the silence of that pedal, it is such a relief to play the hardest tones and hear no buzz at all. Highest recommendation.
