I was a little unclear in my post last year, I have only ever owned one fuzz pedal but I've owned dozens of other stomp boxes. That said in my 2004 quest to make my rig sound like Billy Corgan's I tested at least 10 fuzz pedals before settling on the Big Muff, some of which include the Zvex Fuzz Factory and the a Boss FZ-5 as you pictured awhile back. I also tested out a Russian Muff (lol!) and found it to be a little too abrasive for what I was going for. Apparently though the Big Muffs from the '90's are the ones to get, but tracking them down is difficult and they run the gauntlet of a couple hundred bucks.

The ZVEX fuzz factory is another popular choice and wouldn't mind having one myself.

I enjoyed the Zvex Fuzz Factory pedal, but the price on it is kind out outrageous because of the custom paint color. I would like to see them introduce a plain model at a lower price and let the user decorate as they see fit.
