Yeah, it is really interesting, since it does things that no other fuzz pedal does.

But then again, the man is a genious...

i haven't.....

HOW DOES THE Candy Apple DO IT? :mrgreen:


i wish we could get Bjorn to explain how the magic nature knob works.

seriously.......while the CAF is sort of an unruly beast, it has SO MUCH fuzz magic inside.....and the nature knob allows you to dial in nearly anything....from garage rock fuzz, to octavia, to smoother MKII style fuzz, and many things in between.

i loved the CAF.....and with the CAF and Snow White fuzz, i have ALL the fuzz i need! 8)


Hey Bobby D! What grounds the SWF covers that the CAF doesn't?

a good question.....


the SWF inhabits a region of FAT WOOLY almost eric johnson sounding fuzz (to my ears) whereas the CAF is a bit brighter, spitty, and raspy.

the SWF is a BIG FAT lead guitar tone that takes me right back to Richie Blackmore......soloing in Deep Purple...with Jon Lord doubling the line on organ. It's THAT fat :mrgreen:
