    Yep, tone is killed by distortion... Even a chipboard axe would sound great with the fuzz

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Aaaah yes, but they use it in a minimalistic way, so you can still hear the clean sound as well..
    I am sure that accomplished axe men such as yourself also use fuzz sparingly.
    I was referring to the metal heads that push everything to max.. Those guys may as well play a stick with fence wire strings...

    What about my setup, with lower gain on the pedalz and more gain out of my hands? To my ears it sounds a lot better than having the gain cranked up!
