I'm curious...how many members here own / use CAF? If so, can you share your thoughts?

Its the one pedal I keep two of , I always find nuances in the various settings, and it can also sound really tasty down low --- if I was limited to one fuzz for life it would be a CAF (especially if I had a SBEQ after it )

I have one 
.
It is a nasty fuzz - It took me quite a while to get used to it, but I have finally figured out that it belongs before the Harry Joyce!!
Donner - I will have to experiment with the SBEQ on as well
What settings do you enjoy?

I enjoy the 'on' setting
Ive r ecently taken to the two extremes one the nature control - I really love this one into a HB and the CAF into the LGW is a favortie singing lead sound that suprised me ...

Hey Donner,
Can you tell us a little bit more about what happens when you stack CAF > LGW? It got me wondering about what could happen if I tried CAF > DAOD. I realize that LGW & DAOD are different pedals, but I wonder if it would still do something similar as they are both OD's coming after CAF.
I figured this type of discussion could also help others who have CAF & either LGW, or BBOD, etc.
Your thoughts?

one very cool thing about the CAF is that you can roll the fuzz knob down and still get the flavor of that fuzz setting to blend into another drive - so you can put t he gating or ring modding or octave into a drive for some cool combos...
the CAF into the LGW is a useful stack - use the singing sustain of t he CAFs fuzz ontop of t he low compression barky drive of the LGW to mix your own .....I was shocked at how dynamically controlled a completely out of control firehose tone could be
