    Behringer got itself into the pedal bidness a few years ago. They retail for under $30. You could probably get lucky on ebay.

    Maybe one of those Dano mini pedals?

    Naw, Dano doesn't have a straight up fuzz for sale at the moment.

    Not bad for $27-31.
    Can we find Fuzz for even less? I mean, the fuzz pedal can be one of the simplest pedals out there. Someone's got to be making a $15 example.

    Get a used Dano. The little pale green octave fuzz. French toast?
    It was supposedly a clone on the Foxx Tone Machine or something
    You can turn the octave on and off.
    It was a fun pedal.

    I was a bit thrown off that it was called a distortion pedal by Dano, but...

    ...okay, now I'm convinced.


    thanks Don!

    The call it distortion but it's fuzz. I miss mine. I got it free with something and sold it in a fit of gas.

    That sounds pretty sweet, for sure. I think he's got an echo and some pretty big reverb going near the end of that video, though.

    It looks like they're a little more than $10 now.

    Yeah, but if I understood chuckocaster right, he may be willing to sell me his for around that price. I shot him an email about this. Hope talking about this isn't illegal.

    If that don't work out I'll use ebay. You see I just got my DoD FX-17 working and I really want to try a fuzz with it. Also I am enamored by the tone The Old 97's have on their song Jagged. I've been meaning to get a cheap fuzz for a year now.
