Hi Robert,

This sounds brilliant. What amp did you use here, or was it the POD HD? I've learned that all these software based amps take fuzzes extremely well, but that real world amps are reacting totally different and sometimes need an OD going in front of the Fuzz or the amp hast to be pushed into breakup.

I used a Suhr Badger 18. You can hear the amp tone with no pedal in the beginning of the riff.

Very cool, Robert. You certainly found the sweet spot for that pedal with the Hagstrom and Badger 18 combination.

Tasty playing there, Robert! Do you prefer to run a fuzz pedal into a clean amph or a slightly dirty one?

Thanks, yeah I am really happy with tones I got on the demo!

Marnold, good question. It depends on the fuzz. This one sounds good into a fairly clean amp, but for most Fuzz Face style pedals, I prefer a slightly overdriven amp tone already.
