FUZZ- MXR M267 Octavio Fuzz ... 16 years, 4 good-guess versions = this

$145.00 USD

O C T A V I O   FUZZ
Yes, a 'clone' of the famous silicon octave up Fuzz Hendrix used. 
This is a re-paint on it done 5 years ago so the 16 year old 
Jim Dunlop version with Jimi Hendrix typed on it could be 
discontinued and you could save $50, lol. 
CONCLUSION __ 
It sounds excellent. But that said so does the 
Behringer Octavia. The Behringer sounds more 
accurate to me to the original. No, not better, 
just more accurate. Add to that you get a 
cooler looking take on the original enclosure 
and only pay $70.

...when Henrix got the prototype of the Octavia 
the labelling on it was with a felt tipped pen.
It was barely legible so he thought it said
Octavio and always called it that 😇  
NOTE: 
...no one makes a replica using all the original 
and obsolete parts but to my ears the Behringer 
nailed it. Watch the May 22 video of Danish 
Pete Honores comparing & commenting on it with 
what's on his megabuck board. A mind blower revelation.
