Big Stuff Harmonic Distortion-Sustain

nice big sound. super cool.

Not my favorite guitar fuzz/distortion pedal, but obviously still popular and liked from others.

Good, if not meanwhile legendary vintage Fuzz/Distortion/Sustain pedal with a nicely unique sound, which you can like or also not, the highlight of the pedal certainly is the combined high pass / low pass tone control, called Filter here, which allows a good - or even better, compared with other units from the same time - adjustment to the used guitar and amp.

Nembrini typical very good, authentic and convincing sound, the -15dB option is a nice addition for some cleaner tones. If you look for an excellently sounding plugin of this pedal, this one in my opinion is the most authentically and best sounding one.

By the way, this unit also sounds fantastic in front of eg. a Taurus, Minimoog, OBX or other (vintage) synthesizers, but also in front of a Hammond! In front of them I like it even more than as a guitar pedal.

One thing, a typical Hendrix tone for me rather is a Fuzz Face in front of a 1959, but this plugin also is capable of creating similar tones, but not also them, it is more flexible sonically. Some sort of "missing link" between a Fuzz Face and a TS808 maybe, but with a unique character.
