@@hereonmars I am using the Super Fuzz and the HM-2 clone (I actually prefere it over the original or even boutique clones) for years now and I still remember that I initially thought to myself, It'll be just a matter of time when they break. But it never happened.
@@SxSxG666 Nice! I got the following tone using the metal zone clone into their gdi with the cab sim. I thought it was funny but it ended up pretty respectable. I had the hm2 clone but swedish chainsaw didn't end being what was called for on the project 😂 music.ruclips.net/video/GLnXsQ6TIu4/видео.html&feature=shared
It is a buffered fuzz so it is actually might be good with other tone shaping pedals before it. It makes this fuzz even more versatile than 3 fuzz modes + boost. I tried it with BOSS SD-1 kind of circuit overdrive & it is very good in 1 & 1.5 fuzz modes
I use a Wampler Triumph drive exactly for that. I got it on sale for $84US and it has a powerful 3 band EQ that has a big effect on anything after it. The Super Fuzz sounds thin and harsh in the high end even and the onboard EQ doesn't do enough to change it so it's almost mandatory.
If you have a power supply with a sag function or just a 9v battery on the brink of death you can get another sound from the SF. The gated, splatty, velcro-rip in fuzzes with bias knobs comes from starving the circuit of voltage. Giving it 5v instead of 9 is the extra super secret mode.
I have two of these and they sound different from each other for some reason. both are really spitty a gated though and through a duncan jb jr they both gate anything past like the 10th fret and only only allow for very intentional digged in strings to come through. I personally like this as a flavor but I find I am always fighting with it to get what I want.
I heard it the first time on this video and I get the buzz for this fuzz :D It has a fuzz elements, but it doesn't sound like 60's style fuzz. I was thinking about buying it because it's cheap, and I might buy it anyhow, although it sounds more like metal pedal for me what I heard here on this video.
SF300 is buffered, it can go anywhere in the chain that you would put any other distortion. it doesn't need to go first like old unbuffered germanium fuzzes.
It does have a good scooped opamp tone but it highlights very unmusical harmonics in certain intervals e.g. try playing a note and its major 3rd 🤮 Cherub Rock on the SF400 sounds dissonant and gross.
@@onlyusernameleft2 Yeah, good analysis of the pedal. There are definitely certain intervals that this fuzz pedal highlights in a bad way, which is part of the reason I recommended to stick to 2-note chords. This pedal is one of 2 fuzz pedals I've owned though so I can't say whether it's a feature on all of them or not.
Thanks. The funny thing is that I never got into the Pumpkins. Not sure how that influence is getting through. I guess I listened to Melancholy or w/e once or twice but that's about it.
@@andrewsiemon If you're going to go through the trouble of putting up a channel for perhaps thousands of viewers and then taking the time to buy and review a product, why wouldn't you do the 1-string-and-1-fret-at-a-time method? By posting your gadget reviews, you're essentially telling viewers like me, that you know what you're doing. I clicked on your review because I'm considering the Behringer fuzz pedal, but every channel I've gone to for the Behringer, simply shows another guitarist talking for a bit, and then WHAILING AWAY, I guess to show us that they know how to play? But I don't care how well or badly they play, I'm only trying to evaluate the Behringer to see HOW GOOD IT'S FUZZ TONE IS WHEN PLAYING SINGLE NOTES & NOTHING ELSE!!! When you, and the other dozen guys I've watched, start playing chords, it defeats the whole purpose. i ONLY want to hear 1 STRING BEFORE Behringer, and the same string AFTER Behringer. Unfortunately, I still don't have any better idea how it sounds than before I went to your channel. p.s. You can't believe the nasty responses i got from some channel creators because I called them out on their "testing" method!
@@ismaelbalima1 Make sure you've got cables connected to both sides and you've got a 9C battery or power supply connected to it. Depending on how your board or pedals are sitting, some people mix the inputs and outputs up as well.
plastic case is not the same as low quality pedal
Agree. I haven't run into anyone who's broken one of these yet. But I do have broken boss pedals. They aren't ironclad.
@@hereonmars They might look like cheap crap but they are actually pretty sturdy. Ugly nevertheless.
@@SxSxG666 That's been my experience. I've had several of the behringer pedals at this point.

Great description and tutorial of this cool fuzz. Great riffage, too! ☮☮

i use mine for doom metal but i also use the boost for tony iommis trebble boosted tones
Makes sense.
The boost sounds very title fight esque, defos gonna grab this pedal once I’m paid lol

I just got mine and it won’t stop buzzing, can I get some help?
0:48 how to get that sound
Double tracking your guitars in post processing
I just bought it😂, now I have an idea of settings 🎉
Right on, enjoy.

Can you go between two and three cause then it would be number two with a boost?
Yeah it’s called 1.5 and 2.5
I got this a few months ago. it works amazingly on riffs but not complex chords I use in shoe gaze. the higher strings would sound out of tune.

Yeah, I end up using it for more of a metal vibe, but you can definitely squeeze some solid fuzz tones out of it.
Does it come with a. Cabel
No. I don't think any guitar pedal does.
Actually there’s one
I bought it btw
What the hell is a Cabel?
You say put it before everything but you have the compressor before it in the first images you show of it on your board.
It’s a guideline.
Thanks Mate !
but can it velcro
It's not the best for that, but you should be able to pull it off.
SF300 is buffered, it can go anywhere in the chain that you would put any other distortion. it doesn't need to go first like old unbuffered germanium fuzzes.
You're probably right.
Does it come with 9v battery in it?
I believe so. I can't remember exactly what it came with.
Nop
Very Smashing Pumpkins esq intro!
Cheers. I liked that intro too. Might develop it into a full song one day with a proper drum track.

Sounds like the lead in a lot of Smashing Pumpkins tracks. Be nice to play about with this.
Thanks. The funny thing is that I never got into the Pumpkins. Not sure how that influence is getting through. I guess I listened to Melancholy or w/e once or twice but that's about it.
50 dorrar!
circuit is probably similar to other pedals
Best way to demo it is one string at a time. It's not sexy but it's the only real way to evaluate ANY pedal.
@@davejohnson-yi2rk interesting, I’ve never tried that. I usually just jam and noodle around

Are you new to guitar pedals
@@andrewsiemon yes sir

@@andrewsiemon ive read some things online and it says u need a center negative cable, is that true
@@ismaelbalima1 Just a 9V adapter or battery bro
Please stop zooming in and out in every shot. I feel sick watching this
audio/video are out of sync m8
That’s my baby 🧡🎸🎛 thanks for the video awesome ! Everyone who is a ZEP or Sabbath fan should get it! Some cheap fun !
Yeah it's not too bad.
