FUZZ- ANIMAL PEDAL In Oct 3 Foxes Talking of Dreamy Fuzz ___NEW___ Octave Fuzz

ANIMAL PEDAL 
In Oct,3 Foxes talking of dreamy FUZZ
$120.00 USD
The company was founded by two students in Japan because that could not afford pedals. They made there own with the idea of using cheaper but robust parts and no decorative frills or extras. Years later they had some pedals designed by Marc Ahlfs from Skeddy. All the pedals have been priced when possible to never be much over $100.00 The layout is Level, Tone, Gain and 
a switch to turn on the octave effect. Is it a Foxx Tone Machine?  
CONCLUSION
This pedal stays into the 'keep it under control' category. 
It is a 70's Octave Silicon Fuzz but with disc brakes.
It is rich, punchy, aggressive and full but not caustic or 
over the top spit, sputter and other excessive nasties.
In short it can be used as a stand in for an Overdrive 
if tuned in for one. Very impressive and priced fairly.

the fine print
Animal Pedal now have 20 pedals. The best I Posted as they came out.  Some I have seen are good but as one could say they are ' 
not as advertised' . Their Tone Bender does not deliver what 99% of what those that heard a reasonably good one sounds like. 
I think it is because it is based short lived V.4 silicon prototype only available for about 4 months for a better one for 
Colorsound that became the standard for this type. 
With the Animal offering you must dime the tone and gain. If so you get a very usable Colorsound vibe to the sound.  
The Colorsound designs used very few knobs and the sound fixed to one WOW sound.
