We discuss and demo the main flavours of octave fuzz guitar tones… and some other octaves too.
Life too short for long RU-vid videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
It had to happen eventually. Dan and I are both big fans of the octave fuzz sound, but it is a greatly varied thing and can be quite the challenge to add confidently to your rig.
With the help of a superb crop of modern pedals we howl and screech our way through the tones that might inspire you to give it a go. It’s aural honey for some of us, and worse than fingernails down the blackboard for many others.
It’s not only about Jimi… but boy is he a big part of this sound.
Enjoy the episode!

They mentioned Jack White in the intro, and at risk of being a nerd about it, I think some stuff is worth clarifying. Jack didn't use an octave fuzz on Seven Nation Army. That was a Digi-tech Whammy pedal bumping his signal down a full octave for the verse, and simply a Big Muff for the chorus/solo. The majority of the White Stripe stuff did not use octave fuzz as such, but a combination of a Big Muff and the Whammy in various configurations, with a few songs getting harmonies from a Pog. Jack has started using octave fuzz for recently, specifically his Bumble Buzz pedal, and the Third Man Records Plasma Pedal both have some octave effects to them, though in very different degrees and styles. His last album, Boarding House Reach has a couple of solos and riffs that use octave fuzz, with Over and Over and Over coming esp. to mind for riffs, or Respect Commander for a solo. Again, sorry if I went on a bit, but I think this is worth pointing out.

@rhoff7272 3 года назад

He's absolutely right....

@alanredversangel 3 года назад

If I remember correctly the reason the neck pickup is more pronounced around fret 12 is because the string has its maximum amplitude right over the pickup because it's sat equidistant between bridge and fret. There's also less harmonic content there. I may be wrong though, my brain is mush lately.

@EpicStuffMan1000 3 года назад

yeah, the fundamental and octave harmonics are really accentuated there, and the octave circuit works best with just octave and fundamental harmonics. Other harmonics mush it up a bit, which also sounds cool but there isn't so much a pronounced octave.

@TheBlaggers-uv7vc 3 года назад

Alan Angel One reason 24 fret neck pick ups don’t sound quite right.

@JalenRawley 3 года назад

Exactly. It's why on some guitars, a natural harmonic on the 5th fret will just disappear when you use the neck pickup. The pickup is placed directly at where the 24th fret would be, which is also where the string is divided in fourths (5th fret, 12th fret, 24th fret). Playing at the 12th fret means the pickup is picking up the node of the string directly an octave above the fretted note. So if you could have a pickup that moved to be exactly 12 frets above any note you fretted, you could get the octave effect to be nice and pronounced everywhere!

@fairweatherfriends. 3 года назад

Sounds legit

@skinsdub 2 года назад

yeah playing around that fret 11 - 14 area put the first "node" where the string vibrates around to produce a first order harmonic is right over the pickup, so you get lots of that and lots of fundamental

@EpicStuffMan1000 3 года назад

I hate to contradict, but the FOXX Tone Machine definitely uses diodes for recification and the octave, and separate ones are used for hard clipping. The superfuzz is all transistors for the octave.

@ResoBridge 3 года назад

The octave effect got started independent of fuzz. The Octavia or Octavio has an input driver but is not a fuzz and it was/is normally used driven by a fuzz, as otherwise it tends to gate off sustain. Likewise the Green Ringer. The reason that a more obvious octave up is produced by the higher notes of the guitar is that the higher notes contain less harmonics. The closer the input is to a pure sine wave the clearer the octave effect becomes. This is also why using the neck pickup and rolling down the tone control produces a clearer octave effect, the neck pickup senses more of the fundamental note and the tone filter is removing upper harmonics. The problem with driving the octave effect with a fuzz is that the fuzz is producing square waves rather than pure sine waves. The result of full wave rectifying a square wave is a signal that contains a lot of other harmonics as well as the octave up. When Dan talks about the Danelectro 3699 I could swear he says the octave up effect is 'done with transistors not diodes'. I'm guessing he meant to say transformer. Danelectro say that the 3699 is the Foxx pedal with a few teaks. The original Foxx Tone Machine uses a transistor phase splitter driving two diodes to produce the reification effect. As Dan says there are two more diodes used for clipping further on in the circuit.

FINALLY!!!! After what 5 years of asking for it, I finally get the TPS Octave Fuzz episode. You say 45 minutes of octave fuzz is peoples nightmare, well it's my noisey Heaven! (seriously Dan in Drop D on the 3699 is the closest to "home" you guys have got to tones I go for personally...probably why I'm not in any bands) Interesting things I didn't realise, beside how they worked & how different the shift from Octavio to Superfuzz style is (as different as Fuzz Face is to Big Muff), the Octavio types remind me very much of a ring modulator in how they are so specific. Might be why I don't care for them. But anything Foxx Tone Machine, like the 3699, the old Danelectro French Toast, Diamond F-Octave, or the one I have the MXR LaMachine. Very interesting to find out how the sound that I adore actually works...and how it sounds in the hands of better players for what was (and likely would always be for me) all too brief a time. Now I ask...when's Octave Fuzz part 2?!

The TC sub 'n up is a great alternative to the pog, that doesn't get enough love. There are toneprints, polyphonic and "vintage" modes that get you in the vein of all of the stuff in this episode when mixed with a tonebender or fuzzface and you can add chorusing, flanging, etc. in the editor program to get into the b3 organ camp.

@robertkrause85 3 года назад

The Zep track with the blue box was the Fool in the Rain Solo. I love the classic Octavio ones - so cutting, gritty and musical in its imperfection. In general far prefer the cutting to the ultra wooly/bassy side of fuzz with the exception of muffs which I use more for smooth modulated leads rather than sludge

@RobFlaxMusic 3 года назад

Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU! I've been waiting for this episode for months, and you did not disappoint! I have been chasing the octave sound on violin (where it works all over the instrument, and the bow solves the sustain issue, and the gating works to reduce feedback), and this show is opening so many doors/possibilities. Rectification makes sense! Never knew how this worked. And the Jonny Octave, which initially I disliked on its own, finally makes sense when you combine it with other fuzz pushing it. (Maybe that makes sense across the board). Now I understand why Josh Smith uses the "Believe" with fuzzes pushing it too... Versatile for compact rigs. I've got a lot of stacking to try out...

I do like some of these alternatives, however. Octa-fuzz forever! I love the following for the Octavian sounds: Blue on black -kenny Wayne Shepherd Belief - John Mayer Fool in the rain - Led zeppelin I’m bad, I’m nationwide - ZZ Top Bad penny - Rorry Gallagher LED boots- Jeff Beck Scumbag blues- them crooked vultures Come on over - kenny Wayne Shepherd And of course, Jimi’s: one rainy wish, purple haze, we gotta live together, fire, machine fun, little miss lover, little wing, and who knows. Also, Lance Keltner’s demo of the Nik Huber Krautster has to be the best Octa-fuzz tone, ever. Do yourself a favor and search youtube for it, but wear a diaper as you’ll crap your shorts, for sure. This is fun!

My main fuzz is an older big box Fulltone Octafuzz. Great octave fuzz and with the octave off, it's like the best germanium fuzz face I've owned. Mostly use it off. I've got a HOG2 that just sits on the shelf waiting for me to record something. It knows it will be needed.

"Fool in the Rain?" The Zep song with the blue box solo...? Maybe

@mattgilbert7347 3 года назад

Correct

Can't go wrong with a fuzz show. Great one! With all the talk about ZVEX maybe a show with contemporary fuzz pedals would be an interesting one.

@antonjohnsson679 3 года назад

Something I would find very interesting would be a mic pre/analog channel strip test. I've tried to get classic guitar tones - Ritchie Blackmore's Machine Head era, classic Status tones etc. I believe the mic pres and channel strips made a huge impact on the tone back in the day. Nowadays the mic pres are super clean and transparant, but that wasn't the case 40-50 years ago. Have a great weekend!

@ThatPedalShow 3 года назад

Yep, no arguments here... and then of course all the subsequent EQ and compression/limiting/mattering etc. It ended up (and continues to end up) a far cry from what’s coming out of the speaker.... super interesting topic! Edit, mastering. Sorry!

@antonjohnsson679 3 года назад

That Pedal Show Exactly. I found the isolated guitar track from Highway Star by Deep Purple. Strat->some sort of boost->AC30. The sound is huge! But it doesn’t sound like that setup. The bottom end is massive but there’s still a clear top end.

So Mick keeps stating 45 mins at the start of the video: I don’t like this policy

@onenotesolo256 3 года назад

Micky 2112 this is a good point. With everything else so regulated these days, it’s such a pleasure to start on a new TPS episode and not know whether it will be 47mins or 1hr 12 (clearly we hope for the latter). That’s one of the nice things about some podcasts as well. I would imagine your point might be the kind of thing that Mick, as a deep thinker, would give some thought to.

@KimonFrousios 3 года назад

@@onenotesolo256 It's not like youtube doesn't show how long the video is.

@onenotesolo256 3 года назад

Kimon Froussios absolutely! And it’s not like you have to specifically make a point of checking at the beginning of any video how long it is, either.

@benspinks342 3 года назад

Great vid as usual. I seem to remember reading that Pedal Pawn fuzz is based on the Square Face Casper Diaz made for SRV.

That POG effect on the fuzzes at the very end was awesome.

@mikemyles4916 3 года назад

Lots of cool effects! One unique pedal to add to this mix is the Foxrox Octron. All analog octave above and below with full mix control of both and dry signal.

@ThunderboltProductions 3 года назад

Can you PLEASE use the pedal pawn fuzz some more in another show! Please and thank you! Great job you guys, best show on the RU-vids

@Yupppi 3 года назад

Oh damn, this could've been the episode with the mxr blue box smoothly sneaked in. Bad timing. And after watching the episode until the end... You actually bought it as well Dan! Me too! What a weird coincidence with the videos etc.

@pedalhead2641 3 года назад

Never a big fan of octave fuzz until you guys hit that 3699. Suddenly I saw a future where my Bass VI was destroying a great many combo amps. Shake, rattle, and roll.

@musicmann1967 3 года назад

I like the new Danelectro pedals. At first I assumed they were simply more of their super cheap line, but they're more high end, and wasI very pleasantly surprised! The Roebuck is a really great fuzz! And this octave one is cool too!

@cleftturnip7774 3 года назад

The Devi Ever Vintage Fuzz Master is a good one and the fulltone octafuzz

@guitarfreak585 3 года назад

Oh man. I've been wanting to try an octave fuzz for a long time now but haven't had the guts to pull the trigger on one. Never knew how to use one with my rig. This should help.

@guitarfreak585 3 года назад

Well shit. Guess I'm ordering an Argo.

@jeffroq 3 года назад

Great episode fellas. I just got a Suhr Rufus Reloaded. Great pedal allows you to switch the octave effect on or off by holding the switch down for a second. like having 2 pedals in one.

@simongjose 3 года назад

Love the argo and danelectro. I run my green ringer through my wet amp to layer the fuzz... RIGHTEOUSTONES🤘

@jamesemerson4102 3 года назад

Great show! The Myriad Fuzz seems to bring out that octave sound sometimes. I absolutely love it!

@mattgilbert7347 3 года назад

A great octave fuzz, underrated imo, is the Vox Trike. -1, -2, +1 with various combinations of the modes. It's like a Blue Box on steroids with oct -1 & +1 options. I think -2 is always on (or -1). I love mine. Andy Martin did a great demo back in his PGS days.
