PLEASSSSSE don't judge a fuzz pedal by soundclips on the internet! Iv gone through a fair few, and IME i have found that, more so than any other type of effect, fuzz pedals vary wildly with your setup and, more importantly, your playing style. Unless you really cannot try one out, do not rule out pedals from sound clips.
Works both ways of course. I really liked the idea of the T rex Bass Juice, until i tried it out. Literally the worst pedal i have ever used, i preffered the distortion provided by my zoom 560 at the time.
