| Yeah, I was looking for a review about the LBM as well, if I wasn't in the process of building a Muff clone, I'd probably pick one of those up... |

I have always wondered about this. Boss has several different overdrive and distortion pedals, yet not even a single fuzz since the FZ-3 production ended in 1999. |

| It's a real shame that they don't because I prefer fuzz to anything, particularly the Big Muff and my Hyper Fuzz. Also these days they seem to do less 'cool/weird' effects, like the HF-2 and the DF-2, effects that are a bit different to things otehr people make, obviously they still do that to an extent, but not as much as the 80's |

aside from there being no current fuzz, the strange thing about the 2 fuzzes is that the first one (FZ-2) was the one with all the features. the later one (FZ-3) was the straight up three knobber.
think there will be a FZ-5? thing is, i dont know where they could go further with the fuzz effect. |

Maybe some extra settings on a selector knob like oscillation, octave settings (a la Fender Blender/MXR Blue Box), a ring modulator setting, something overly harsh and grainy, and old school settings, I could go on. Get some ideas together and send them off to Boss, we might even get a Bossarea edition pedal |
