That's just a backup fuzz that I've been using in case, you know, things go awry with whatever's going on on the table. But this is a really badass pedal. Durham Electronics, get it in Austin, Texas. Killer. It's got that whole Neil Young thing, sounds exactly like it. And it's got one of those volts, where the further you scroll back on the volts, it sound like an amp crapping out. It's really cool.
