The CAF running through the LGW or HBOD... This little FUZZ is amazing - so far my favorite setting (only been able to play for a few hours on it) Volume 12, Nature 2:30, Fuzz 3'ish running through LGW or HBOD - just like the photo - thick and perfectly toasted.

*slaps himself* I had the choice of getting either a PGC or a CAF for $335 about five months ago. For some stooopid reason I chose the PGC even though I have never gotten along with compressors. I think at the time I was in a huge fuzz sell off to fund my BJFe craze (well worth it), but couldn't see how the CAF, which is 4+ fuzzes in one, was worth the price. :oops: Kinda reminds me of the TPG discussion where people cant think it is anything but hype to love Bjorn's designs. Gotta dig deeper!

Glad you are enjoying yours Hawaii121!!! :mrgreen:

Welp, two months and counting.... Hey Bjorn, wouldn't it be fun to build some CAFs? :D

Somewhere around noon, octavia goodness awaits.
Use the neck pickup, and play around the 12th fret as you SLOWLY sweep the nature knob to find it.
It's delicious

yeah...the CAF is REALLY good, isn't it??? :mrgreen:

it's one of the best fuzzes in the entire world.

sweep that nature knob SLOWLY.....play a "D" chord on second fret, and listen for the CAF to start doing that ring modded sound of sound. usually around noon is where the octavia magic is.

the CAF can get a LOT of fuzztones....all in one box 8)

I have kept two CAFs for this reason, it can very easily be completely different settings and:

CAF > CAF :arrow: :twisted:
