Great, angry fuzz

This is a clone of the Shin-Ei Superfuzz. Isolated inputs makes it not pick up a lot of RF noise, it is one of the least noisy fuzzes I've played. But it makes a lot of noise itself. Two modes, scooped mids and flat mids. Both are aggressive and becomes very messy in a great way when you play something that is not single note or octave. The flat mode makes you cut through everything. I wish there was a pot instead of a knob, there must be a lot of great sounds between the two extremes. Octave effect works well, especially above 12th fret with the neck pickup.
