If you could only have one FUZZ pedal on your board?

JTB ended my Fuzz quest. I even contemplated selling the Lament Configuration, and The Kitteh Cannon is in the current purge.

I now have a pedal that simply has a Jumbo Tonebender and a Big Omar booster in there. That's it (the Lament is in the main stash now rather than my personal one, just for demoing stuff).

I've got a Basic Audio Scarab Deluxe Fuzz and it's been on my board over two years now. Very versatile and usable fuzz.

You know, I love the ultrastoner but if I commission you again I think I'd go for another triple but a jumbo tonebender (you were not kidding), big omar and some kind of overdrive - maybe just a rehoused boss df-2. Or a similar circuit - it would basically be all my dirt requirements in one box, so it'd save space compared to having a double plus a df-2 separate. 

Plus I'd rather it be muff - boost - df-2. And maybe a switch to swap the distortion and boost around. Perfect.

It would have to be my DIY, modified Monolith Oracle clone. I love that thing! I'll be building an even more modified version soon, which I think will make it more even more versatile.
A close joint second is a DIY, modified violet Ram's Head Muff with a mids control and a DIY D*A*M Drag'N'Fly clone.

Rather than order switches I tend to test it both ways before hand and put them in the order they sound best... I can do them, I just tend not to.

I'd have another Dr Scientist Frazz Dazzler, but I don't really use fuzz that much (well, not at all now).

I never thought of the VS as a fuzz - but I s'pose with the sag up a bit it does get fairly nasty. Glad you like it.
