So far so good!
Have only had this pedal a short while, so can't be too critical on it's build etc. but it sounds great! I've been looking for a fuzz for a while now and have tried a few different ones, none of which really did it for me. They weren't fuzzy enough, or they were the wrong kind of fuzz, I don't know, it's hard to put my finger on it. As soon as I plugged into the triangle muff I knew it was the one. Which did surprise me, as I had tried other muffs in my search and felt they were lacking something. If you are after that late 60's early 70's fuzz sounds this is definitely a pedal that you should try out. I also tried out the Russian big muff from this reissue series next to this one and it was very similar but had a slightly woolier sound, lacking a lot of the top end that the triangle had, which wasn't the sound I was going for but mght be preferrable to others.

you just wanted an extreme distortion... the big muff is often called a fuzz because it uses discrete transistors like most fuzzes, but all of the audible distortion is produced by diodes tog round not unlike a couple of DS1s slammed into eachother. Have fun with it

Donner Yellow Fall Delay pedal
I'm hesitant to start a review with "for the price you pay.." as I feel that suggests that it can't be compared to more expensive pedals. That is definitely not the case for this great little delay from Donner. I don't have a lot of experience with any other delays but in terms of general pedal factors, build, noise etc this little guy is every bit as good as any of the more expensive pedals I've used. Can't recommend it enough, I will definitely be checking out some more of Donner's pedals.
