I liked your vid 'cause your kitty cat's in it... ...AND for the oxford. 😎

So Gibson put out the first fuzz and first ever pedal? I didn’t know that.

My Musiclily Fuzz doesn't have the noise issues your pigtone does.

Why are you playing Teen Spirit wrong? Is it on purpose?!

Back in the early 70s I’d get a ripped velcro sound out of my new DS1 whenever the battery was dying.

The special mode seems to be a bit like the mid cut toggle on the Joyo, or the Fuzz 2 mode on the Super Fuzz, but not nearly as extreme.

After Clapton left the Yardbirds they originally offered the job to Jimmy Page but Page turned them down due to being friends with Clapton and Page suggested they check out Jeff Beck and the band ended up hiring Beck . As a thank you Beck Gave Page a 59 telecaster which later became known as the Dragon Telecaster .

It's a really cool pedal that sounds awesome. They should have made the JHS mode a second switch though for a solo boost. Too bad this pedal has a loud hiss.

The first rock song I ever heard was The Duke of Earl . I was looking for an AM radio station when I landed on that. So, I stayed a little longer!

Very thorough and insightful review

Be careful if you put a battery in it. The wires on the battery connector are really thin, and mine just broke right off. I didn’t care that much since I have a power supply, but I figured I should pass the word on to anyone who might hear it.

Great! I did not know twist and shout was a cover. But The Rolling Stones remains the greatest rock n roll band for 60 years while the rest of them are all gone is really a miracle.

Cool looking, joy division cat shirt. And off course that sweet cat 😻 don’t care for the pedal tho 😅

Great demo! I just might have to buy me one of them!

This is awesome... Nice work! On to Episode 2.

try a jordan bosstone next

Sounds more like a distortion than a fuzz.

Watched for the pedal demo, liked for the Easybeats riff.

George Young of the Australian band the Easybeats (Friday on my Mind) being the elder brother of Malcolm and Angus Young is worth noting here since we are talking about loud 'n distorted!

You gotta put out another video, you were about to get to the magic moment when Lester met Jim and they got loud, crunchy and creamy!

I enjoy your talk. Always here for a Joy Division shirt.

That Musiclily FffuuuzZZzzZz, at least mine, is really special. KillzZzzZzzzzZZZz.

You need to listen to johnny guitar watson from 1952...he started it...space guitar.

Great shirt. I bought the voodoo last year. I will check out turning the capacitor. Cheers from QLD.

I bought the joyo goat purely because of the graphics, so there's that.

Thanks for posting these originals, some of which were poor and deservedly not big hits. I'm glad you focused mostly upon the ones that weren't big hits or which were hits but are not played by oldies channels any more. My favorite British Invasion remake (these are NOT covers) is "Sha La La", a power-pop version of a Shirelles song of much less energy. Sometimes the British bands even had a hit using a B-side. There's an interesting story about how British bands had hits with three recordings Sam Cooke songs, paying tribute to his legacy soon after his death. Mick Jagger bumped into Peter Noone in the studio, and mentioned that the Animals had just recorded "Bring it on home to me" and the Stones were about to record another Sam Cooke song. So Herman's Hermits recorded "Wonderful world".

Since you are clearly an expert, you should know better than to perpetuate the egregious use of the word "cover" where "remake" is meant. A "cover" is released soon after the original is released, and is intended either to compete with it directly within the same market or to expose the song to a very different demographic. In the former case the arrangement will be very similar (if not identical) but in the latter there may be major changes, such as making it sound pop instead of country. By law, the composer has the right to approve the first artist to record a new song, but upon its release it is fair game for anyone to record it without permission. The purpose is to capitalize on the original popularity of the song. Sometimes the purpose of a cover is to make better use of a great song that tanked; it had its chance and blew it. During the 30s, 40s and 50s there was a mad rush by artists to get out their own version of a new hit song. (Once the top 5 were all the same song!) Even as late as the 60s there were competing versions. A "remake" is recorded some time (at least a year, often much more) after the original recording had its run for better or for worse; it is not competing with the original. A laudable remake will usually be imaginative, often making radical changes to the tempo, hooks, instrumentation, mood, etc. (Compare Jose Feliciano's "Light my fire" to The Doors' original, for example.) Lazy remakes are usually directed at a new generation or age-group that never heard the original, and the artist doesn't bother trying to freshen it up because it's assumed the buyers have never heard the original. i suppose one could call these lazy remakes "covers" because the arrangement is so close to the original, but it doesn't make sense because it is not competing with the original. Every one of your ten "covers" is a remake, not a cover.

Sound Drops out on later part of Kinks,All day and allof the night,and Tired of waiting for You no sound!

Do you have the full list of tracks in the video with their date of release / album info?

This is a great series! Shame on the killjoys that managed to ruin a bit due to copyright.

I think this pedal was actually based on the fz 1s which is a considerably more gnarly pedal than the fz1 so this actually really sucks as anything to be carrying the maestro name

Whatever happened to Satisfaction by The Rolling Stones? it's the one song that made every guitarist want to buy a Maestro Fuzztone.

Overall, the Joyo is better sounding (more musical) than the Pigtone. But when it comes to octave up single notes lead, the Pigtone is more pronounced (piercing). Thus, I would pick the Pigtone. Thanks for the great demo.

Nice video. The battery door is a Digitech design, you don't need a pen, you unplug the cable and use the end of the plug.

I really like the dialed-back crunch tone you got here. I like it tight, sort of explosive, or what I might call "contrasty". Was never a fan of noisy, feedback-soaked distortion. Very useful review.

The Walker Brothers cover of the Bacharach a / David song “Maje it Easy On Yourself “ knocked The Rolling Stones Satisfaction out of the top spot on the British Charts and stayed there for several weeks. Has to be one of the most successful covers of all time!!

I love me some distortion! Thrash and Doom metal are my modern favorites. 🤘

Fascinating😊

ugh, tele tuning! Have you tried using Babicz saddles on your Tele before? I absolutely adore using Babicz on anything I didn't throw a Floyd Rose or a Schaller on.

Very good but there’s some audio dropouts near the end

Awesome!!!

Excellent video!!! Liked all your vids so far! Gonna watch em all!!! Rock on brother🏆🎸✝️👏

are you australian or new zealander?

They both sound like crap. I don't understand why people waste their money on these cheap knockoffs. There's a reason they cost $40

I think the top 3 fuzz boxes are pretty obviously the big muffs, fuzz face, and tone bender. But the fuzz face isnt very gainy and thin until it goes through an amp on the edge if break up or is maxed out. I feel like a lot of the complaints on this pedal could be addressed that way? Based on other demos i think you have to approach things like an sd9 where most of the tone control is usable only in the first quarter then its too fizzy and bright. But these are a v specific sound. Definitely more of the 60s garage rock variety than the psychedelic or hard rock of the era and later. Keep in mind not all fuzz boxes like clean. Tone benders and fuzz faces most definitely dont. Big muffs and super fuzzes do but im not sure abt these. I think try it with the tone set between the first quarter of the dial and a boost pedal or an od for more.
