I fancy getting a new fuzz pedal for my stoner rocky riffy stuff - been using my Keeley Rat 2 but I don't really like it for the riffs/rhythm stuff, it sounds too "pedal like" and plasticcy for that but leads sound great. Kinda like it sits on top of my amp sound rather than melds into one with it? I tend to keep the gain on my Laney set to about 6 (crunchy light od) and push it the rest of the way with the pedal which works better than leaving the amp clean.
I don't think the rat really gets fuzzy enough til you have the gain up really high which then makes it mushy and crap for rhythm, it's more of a distortion pedal. Was thinking either a fuzz face clone (mooer grey faze) or a muff clone with voicing control to retain mids (byoc large beaver) might do the trick? Are fuzz face "big" enough for this or only good for classic rock/Hendrix fuzz tones? I know the muff will be big enough but not sure if it's completely the other way of being too much. I think I just wanna add a bit of fuzziness and girth to the sound but not losing all my clarity etc.
