FUZZ- ROCKREADY RF-1 Retro Fuzz ___ NEW ___ new brand, same ol' Muff :-)

ROCKREADY RF-1 retro FUZZ 
$40.00 USD
Nothing earth shattering going on here. A basic budget Fuzz by what looks to be a new company. It does not appear to be a rebrand as none of the usual suspects layout their pedals have with the input jack up high on the pedal with the LED across from it and a toggle below that switch.
The layout is Volume,Gain and tone with switch for scooping the mids.

CONCLUSION ____
It sounds quite good. Fat and very raspy. I prefer it with the mids scooped. I expect normal is really a bit of mid boost by by passing the diodes and mid cut is just the real normal that you get when doing a Muff. Yes folks I think it is a Muff circuit.
But hell it sounds damn good and is priced OK.

the fine print 
The best deal on a great Fuzz is probably the MOSKY Mini Muff ...a bit less versatile. BUT?
Dead simple to get a huge fat sound or dial it back for a Dave Gilmour thing. $25.00 USD on AliExpress.
