Critic Reviews

Bongripper and Fuzzrocious release the Blastripper pedal: "Hail Satan Worship Doom" - gearnews.com

gearnews.com

The Blastripper pedal, a collaboration between Bongripper and Fuzzrocious, boasts a striking design and a limited run of just 40 units, promising a potent blend of fuzz and distortion. However, while the concept is intriguing, the execution may not meet all expectations. The pedal's high price tag of $350 plus shipping may deter potential buyers, especially given the niche appeal of its aesthetic and intended use. Musicians seeking versatility might find themselves wanting more than the straightforward, doom-centric offerings. Despite its wicked charm, the Blastripper seems better suited for dedicated fans rather than the everyday player.
