There may be a consideration to be made between a detune and a chorus, which adds movement to detune . Putch shifters usually detune without movement, but most chorus pedals have at least SOME movement even at lowest.
You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire was such a fucking sick example to use bro, QotSA and Kasabian's tone is undeniably sick
While I don’t have all of the pedals here, you just inspired me to have fun messing around and experiment more with what I have and just see what I come up with. Thanks
I look at this guy and I would never think he's going to pull out weird monster video game hilarity... Yet there he goes, doing exactly that. Seamless.
So glad you pointed out the octave/pitch shifter in front of a fuzz unit thing. That's one of my favourite combos and you're the first RUclipsr I've seen even mention it! Fun fact: Ross Childress from Collective Soul made exemplary use of this combo.
Stylistically diff enough that it took me several minutes to realize what it was. A song I've heard hundreds of times and I'm "WTF is that?! I know it" lol
Had my Fuzz Factory for nearly 20 years and I still find new sounds in it. One of my all time favourites pedals. My favourite way to use it is as a lead boost either hitting a dirty amp or another pedal, because you can make it sound like pseudo octave up fuzz. But it's not really octave up, it just sounds sorta' like a filthy version of it. Nice song choices too!
Today, 5 minutes ago to be exact, I died and went to heaven. The gods have given the guitarwebsh, the fuzziah. Thank you for content that the world ACTUALLY needs and presenting it better than ANY axisting pedal channel.
Wow. This was the one of the most informative, creatively produced, and entertaining videos I’ve seen in a long time. As a child of the 80s/90s and a guitar player/enthusiast, this video felt like it was tailor made for someone like me. Thanks for the awesome video and I will be checking out all your stuff.
Dude holy shit that ~900 with the delay was amaaaaaazing. And I own one! And I’m gonna do the thing tonight! So glad I found this channel. My new favorite spot on RUclips.
I would say there are 4 kind of fuzz circuits. Fuzz face,tone bender,big muff and octave fuzz. The germanium silicon has less to do with the differences. For instance the a silicon fuzz face and a germanium fuzz face will sound more similar than a fuzz face vs big muff for example. It's more about the circuits than the transistors.
I’ve commented recently about your immaculate song choice and I gotta say it again, perfect choices! It so inspiring the way you rework the melody’s. The Buzzcocks was my favorite in this video.
Delay into fuzz is a REAL pro-creative tip. Also love the sega sounds, i have run fuzz straight into a console before and hooo baby its sandpaper glory! Love the advocation for going against convention. Also, I always run my octave after fuzz and gain, but now you have convinced me to try it wayyyy earlier in the chain
Nice sounds! I have a keeley fuzz bender which has a bias to blend the germanium and silicon inside it. I lean towards the germanium side, but still get that spluttery silicon sound when I want.
Just wanted to drop by and say this: your channel is absolutely killer, dude. I remember stumbling onto your Ring Mod video and, even though I’ve used a DOD Gonkulator as my “secret sauce” for years, that video opened my eyes to so many options. And I wanna sincerely thank you for that. I’ve loved every one of your vids since then. Keep up the awesome content, brother!
Big fan from Hamburg, Germany here, w/kbd and a little guitar as well! I immensely enjoy your tutorial series, mate. So entertaining, musical, soulful, informative, helpful, sometimes disturbing, often out of the box, and always inspiring. Most importantly, seeing your grin when you stumble over some kind of tongue twister makes my day, guaranteed. Thank you! And thanks for asking about possible next topics (in the comments). Here's my 2 cents (or rather, 5 cents): - FILTER - VIBRATO (pitch modulation) - STEREO Dual Pedal series: - DELAY w/X (Delay with sth else like Reverb, Modulation, Delay Stacking, etc.) - FX ORDER (e.g. Overdrive->Reverb vs. Reverb->Overdrive)
Damn, all of these sound awesome! The "Ever fallen in Love" Buzzcocks cover at the end with the delay and fuzz sounded amazing - and you are right, it sounds like the fuzz "eats" the trailing delays haha, and sounds so good! Thanks for sharing, I love your music and love your channel!
Awesome video, I never thought about running fuzz directly into my interface. I use an IR-200 so I'll just turn off the amp and cab and mess around there. Thanks for the tips, great sounds.
Another good tip for a bass player is to use a octave with no dry signal only octave down into a fuzz for a synthy sound, although for this I usually prefer ring mod or bit crushing sounds for making this sort of synthy thing
Try volume swelled full chords with loads of fuzz into big/massive darkish reverb for some super admospheric stuff! Just turn up the hall setting to the max or if you want to be real fancy, try a shimmer
brilliant video dude,I'm a huge lover of fuzz pedals, especially big muff style I have the Muffaletta by JHS, Loomer workstation, EHX Big muff op-Amp and Berinhger Superfuzz SF300
I have never been a fan of the whole 8bit thing, for games or art or music or anything. THAT SAID this video was sick. First time viewer and I’m subscribed. Thanks man!
Men your super clever! You do something useful, advertise your music at the same time and when you write riffs you can use them for your own music as well so you tik alot of boxes!!!
If you find yourself with a fuzz that can bias and gate especially if it's not buffer sensitive... the eqd dirt transmitter comes to mind.. you can send echoes of a guitar or even just a drum track thru it and get some awesome fuzzed percussive sounds. I have song or riff idea around this and when the harmonics or a bright chord hit the echo and hit the fuzz you get this bug zapper like effect that just decays beautifully
I would say the number of transistors is a better way of categorizing fuzz types rather than the type of transistor (silicon vs germanium). For example, there are two in a fuzz face, three in a tone bender, and three in a big muff.
As always this is so inspiring. I have the ~900, and I never even thought about how it's impromptu gate via bias would play with a delay running into it. I'm tempted to try it with reverb too now. Wonder if it will make reverb decay sound like a deteriorating radio signal. Every video of yours just makes me want to pick up and play, explore, tinker, try anything. I have discovered a lot of cool sounds in my rig thanks to this channel.
Also DI, distortion can be a fuzz, even if it sucks as a distortion then. Distortion into acoustic sim into an amp is similar, but more destructive, like a truck engine in the room.

Somebody invent a new effect category so we can keep this series going longer
what should I do after reverb, stacking overdrives, and lofi guitar, which are gonna be the next 3 topics
@@CyberattackWorld Something in the Digitech whammy world would be great. Excellent work.
@@willardthewhispricochet!
Seconded.
@@CyberattackWorld great, looking forward to those.
How about wahwahs and chorus?
Or on the more noisy side, ringmods and PLL type effects?
Been playing for 15 years, and that fuzz/chorus/slap DI might be the coolest thing I've ever heard
A boss PS-7 should do the trick
Hello, I like this tone too, but can't reach it, what is your pedals set ?
There may be a consideration to be made between a detune and a chorus, which adds movement to detune . Putch shifters usually detune without movement, but most chorus pedals have at least SOME movement even at lowest.
It's amazing that you're as good playing left-handed than right-handed.
i suffered immensely for this
@@CyberattackWorldhow did being good left handed and right handed help your play style?
Getting the second hoodie with the reverse logo is another level of commitment too.
That glitchy lead into the QoTSA riff was insane. Really cool stuff.
thanks, that riff is so cool
You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire was such a fucking sick example to use bro, QotSA and Kasabian's tone is undeniably sick
that band rules
This channel has all three food groups - it’s entertaining, I always hear new ways to use my 67 pedals and the riffage makes me smile
Seconded.
You only have 67 pedals🤣?
I have literally never seen this guy's videos before and I loved every second of this. Makes me wanna go out and buy way too many pedals.
What a wonderful bunch of riffs in this video
That Foo Fighters- Weenie Beenie intro made me so darn happy! A great interpretation of such an underrated song ❤❤❤
Waking up to a new CyberAttack video felt like waking up early for Saturday Morning Cartoons in the 80's.
"previously on X-Men"
Your pajamas were wet?
You sounding pretty sussy bruh.
New favorite guitar focused channel. I marathoned most of these videos today. So rad.
Oh man that face in fuzz factory example, I felt that. This is hands down one of the best videos about fuzzes, great tips
While I don’t have all of the pedals here, you just inspired me to have fun messing around and experiment more with what I have and just see what I come up with. Thanks
Genuinely love how you come up with killer examples of how you can use the pedals in a mix that all sound awesome.
I look at this guy and I would never think he's going to pull out weird monster video game hilarity... Yet there he goes, doing exactly that. Seamless.
The biggest hustler is back making each and every fuzz sound like a metal zone. Well done.
All these pro tips are worth a million dollars.
So glad you pointed out the octave/pitch shifter in front of a fuzz unit thing. That's one of my favourite combos and you're the first RUclipsr I've seen even mention it! Fun fact: Ross Childress from Collective Soul made exemplary use of this combo.
those were happier times for Ross Childress
thanks for the comment also
I watched a handful of your effects videos tonight for first time. You are a genius.
I love the Buzzcocks cover! Super subtle, super dope 🤙❤️

Dude holy shit that ~900 with the delay was amaaaaaazing. And I own one! And I’m gonna do the thing tonight! So glad I found this channel. My new favorite spot on RUclips.
the synth-y sounds you get out of these pedals are soooo awesome, i've gotta try that di muff trick
Best part of all videos.. he played Strat and make it sound heavy with all metal riffs..
This guy really knows his way around guitar pedals, those last two were next level!
I love the way you work with fuzz pedals
I would say there are 4 kind of fuzz circuits. Fuzz face,tone bender,big muff and octave fuzz. The germanium silicon has less to do with the differences. For instance the a silicon fuzz face and a germanium fuzz face will sound more similar than a fuzz face vs big muff for example. It's more about the circuits than the transistors.
this is smart and good, thanks
Nice choice 1:43 this has always been my favorite FF song
same, it's brutal
Which one is this?
@@averyadrian1534 Weenie Beenie from their first record. The riff is pure hype.
same das one of the songs i learned when i got my first pedal, a big muff🤘🤘 also touch me im sick🫠
love the visual style

One of the best inspiration and pedal channel. Thanks for your hard work brother ❤️
Seconded.
The ~900 is a mainstay on my board. It inspires me in ways other gear fails to do. Wonderful piece of kit.
The last 2 effects are really splendid - that's what I (personally) come here for :)
Nice sounds! I have a keeley fuzz bender which has a bias to blend the germanium and silicon inside it. I lean towards the germanium side, but still get that spluttery silicon sound when I want.

metal heavy, soft at the core

And thanks for asking about possible next topics (in the comments).
Here's my 2 cents (or rather, 5 cents):
- FILTER
- VIBRATO (pitch modulation)
- STEREO
Dual Pedal series:
- DELAY w/X (Delay with sth else like Reverb, Modulation, Delay Stacking, etc.)
- FX ORDER (e.g. Overdrive->Reverb vs. Reverb->Overdrive)
thanks for these suggestions
Pro-tip #4 makes me very, very happy.
the ssynth sound ws dope!
7:00 the sound of NIN's "only" drum part
holy cow that sega synth sound is beeeauuutttiiffuulll
One of my favorite Fuzz uses is a "parked" wah pedal into a Big Muff into a thick Chorus (mybe use the neck pickup).
Damn, all of these sound awesome!
The "Ever fallen in Love" Buzzcocks cover at the end with the delay and fuzz sounded amazing - and you are right, it sounds like the fuzz "eats" the trailing delays haha, and sounds so good!
Thanks for sharing, I love your music and love your channel!
I loved those Genesis sounds!
Awesome video, I never thought about running fuzz directly into my interface. I use an IR-200 so I'll just turn off the amp and cab and mess around there. Thanks for the tips, great sounds.
Wow! Buzzcocks chiptune!
Great one!
The visuals are really fun.
#5 sounds cool.
I'm going to check out the rest of your videos now.
Id love to see a series of your favorite pedals to match together
i plan to do this exact thing, probably tied to the combinations i used on my next album, closer to when it comes out
Another good tip for a bass player is to use a octave with no dry signal only octave down into a fuzz for a synthy sound, although for this I usually prefer ring mod or bit crushing sounds for making this sort of synthy thing
Try volume swelled full chords with loads of fuzz into big/massive darkish reverb for some super admospheric stuff! Just turn up the hall setting to the max or if you want to be real fancy, try a shimmer
Loved this, nice work.The Best Westrn, the monster at the pool, example #4 , and #5. The bass was heavy too.
This series is super sick so glad i found this channel every time u demo them i want it to keep going and going😮💨🔥
It was Colonel Mustered in the Billiard Room with the Germanium Transistor. (OR in the Conservatory with the GERANIUM Transistor)
LOL great comment and I'm glad somebody finally recognized those
You earned a new subscriber just from tip #2. Amazing.
Amazing tips, thank you!
Loved this. The last track was so good.

Men your super clever! You do something useful, advertise your music at the same time and when you write riffs you can use them for your own music as well so you tik alot of boxes!!!
when you were talking about tip two with the glitchy sound, Millionaire is what I thought of...then you played it! brilliant

oh yeah i love the Dirt Transmitter, I was sad when it got discontinued
Hey the first pedal to use octave fuzz was the shin ei/ univox super fuzz in the late 60s. The blue box was later on
good catch thank you
Weenie Benie's (Foo Fighters) kinda at the first example! Love it!
Fuzz rips my face and I can't get enough. Great video
Just to point out - there are also op-amp fuzzes (semiconductors). These can sort of blend the two traditional silicon and germanium sounds.
Amazing pro-tips-vid as usual !!
I would say the number of transistors is a better way of categorizing fuzz types rather than the type of transistor (silicon vs germanium). For example, there are two in a fuzz face, three in a tone bender, and three in a big muff.
Great video. Bonus points for the CKY riffs!
This video is specially great! Well done man, you found the niche spot of guitar content on YT!
Tip #4 kinda blew my mind... Thanks for all of the helpful videos!
oh yeah! that last jam got me moving
The OG Foo Fighters sounds so good. I had to go back and listen to that song.
that song is really good

There's another alternative to germanium and silicon and that's LED. Next level crunch. Cool video though, love your style

Lol was that The Four Horseman you played with the glitched out fuzz factory?
yes i was waiting for someone to catch that
@@CyberattackWorld also caught I’m Broken with the octave into the boss fuzz, but that one was a little easier
don't miss the opening bassline to "For Whom the Bell Tolls," which is also scattered throughout the video
holy COW! I will have to try out that fuzz into chours/delay "Instant Synthesizer" example!
