Long time, no see...time for some Fuzz reviews!!!

Oooh, been gone a long time. I've been doing a lot. One of those things is jammin' out to some fuzz boxes!!!
Let me review some for you.
1. Big Muff Pi w/tone wicker
FROM: Electro-Harmonix
PRICE NEW: $89.25
WHAT'S GOOD: You get a great range from your classic harder edged distortion to the "buzzy bee" style fuzz. It has a toggle switch that shuts off the tone knob and it becomes louder and more of a classic distortion. The wicker toggle switch boosts the mids and let's you cut through the mix better. If you had to get one fuzz and were on a tight budget, this is the one. It will not let you down!
WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD: Nothing, really, it is your basic fuzz box and if you are looking for some of those insane death-type fuzz tones, you won't get those here, but then again, that's not what you're paying for.
RECOMMENDED BUY?  Absolutely

2. Torn's Peaker
FROM: Devi ever
PRICE NEW: $97.50
WHAT'S GOOD: Everything...Devi ever consistently makes the best pedals for the money, if you're looking for some insane ass fuzz! This pedal has a range from hardcore metal distortion to a knock-your-balls-off "oh, shit, the cone on my speaker exploded, but it rules" sound. All of Devi's pedals are LOUD!  If you put the volume anywhere past 9 o'clock, you will blow anyone out of the room. This is a good thing.  This pedal is really, really versatile, and I think can do the job if you only had room for one fuzz on your pedal board. The small footprint is a plus as well.
WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD: My only beef is that the DC plug is on the side, and that's a pain in the ass when it comes to plugging in your pedals on your board. MXR does that too. It drives me nuts.
RECOMMENDED BUY? If you have the cash this is WELL worth it.

3. U.S. Fuzz
FROM: Devi ever
PRICE NEW: $97.50
WHAT'S GOOD: This one is an acquired taste, but once you acquire it, you won't go back! This has a sputtering , velcro-type fuzz that trails off hard once you start to mute it. It's also gated so when you're not playing, you hear nothing! This really is such a different sound from the other fuzzes out there and it ads a great flavour to your sound if you switch it up now and then. Once again...LOUD! This is a great second fuzz to put on your board.
WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD: You have to get used to using it. There are times it could sputter out on you before you want it to. It's good to use a compressor along with this if your playing rhythms. This is also not a fuzz box that you would have exclusively on your board. You could not use it on every song. This is more of a change of pace pedal (there's nothing wrong with that). Once again the plug on the side...AAAHH!
RECOMMENDED BUY? If you have the cash and are buying up fuzz boxes, this should be the second one that you buy!

4. Trumpet Fuzz
FROM: Mellowtone
PRICE NEW: $82.99
WHAT'S GOOD: This little ditty gets you kind of a lo-fi fuzz tone and as you turn the attack knob all the way clockwise, you get that "octave up" type of tone. Good for a change of pace, "coming thru my old Zenith Allegro speakers" type of tone. The price is right as well.
WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD: This is very limited in tone, and it is NOT that loud. You have to crank the level up all the way to keep it the same as your amp. It's also just not up to par with many other better fuzzboxes out there.
RECOMMENDED BUY? If you like that lo-fi sound and have expendable cash on hand, it's not bad, but I think your money could be better spent elsewhere
