Reed-like attack with a roar from a mixture of sounds, the Foxes Talking of Dreamy Fuzz (FTODF) brings glory and grit and has a unique place among many fuzz pedals. The Octave-up style fuzz became a hit attraction in the late 60s with certain legendary guitarists and evolved more in the 70s with the “velvet” style octave fuzzes born on the West Coast USA. The Foxes talking of dreamy Fuzz was born based on that intense and unique sounding design.
It is easy to recreate the exact designs of the 60s and 70s, but the character and tones can be extremely rough and abrasive and were designed for the darker and less gainey amplifiers from that time. Animals Pedal did not change the basic sound of the octave fuzz, just slightly refined it with improved operability. You can also make some wild shrieking sounds that is unique to this style of fuzz, as well as have access to a great standard fuzz sound that is organic and authentic. Not only can you get drunk with the former psychedelic tone, but you can also have the freedom to incorporate it into modern music and create new sounds. The standard fuzz tone (with octave switch set to “OFF”) is a flavor of 70s silicon-based fuzz that is immediately memorable.
When you turn on the octave, the pedal overflows with madness – especially when you select the front pickup and play single note lines above the tenth fret with the tone rolled off – a cry with intense octave will flow from your fingers. The FtodF has an overall sense of stability with the textures of the classic fuzzes, and it is an Animals Pedal that can be stepped on confidently by any guitarist who seeks new fields of tone.
