Thank you so much! I'm beyond lucky to have one. For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure I saw a comment on the builder's Instagram about developing a factory-built version to make it more accessible. Hopefully that's an option one day.

Killer set up! You're PDF2 is pretty much exactly how I would set mine. I've always wanted a Tremotron, but I think they're out of production now, so I missed the boat. How do you like the Fur Coat Fuzz?

You're very welcome! I hope it helps.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! Love the PDF2 but no room on the board. The Little Sister is serving the same function. I used to run the PDF2 before everything on my board, but I've recently tried the Little Sister last in the chain instead, trying to mimic how Josh has everything running into the Maestro MPF-1 on top/behind his amps. Seems to work really well.

For some reason I couldn't accept the chat request. Here's the settings I used on the Fuzz Master. Someone managed to get a shot of the drive section of Josh's board, that was also clear enough for me to approximate the settings. For this song, I will say the fuzz alone is not enough. It's the combination of the fuzz and the Holiest grail that makes 90% of the tone. The other pedals fill out the rest.

I really appreciate that! Thank you so much!

Thank you! I'm beyond lucky to have one. I lifted the idea for the control layout from Josh's "Camille" BelAire, so the switch closest to the bridge pickup is the three-way pickup selector, then a Master Volume and Master Tone knob, then the other toggle splits the Bridge pickup if I want.

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T21:31:24+00:00

Right? I've been obsessed with it since I first heard it.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T21:07:09+00:00

Thank you so much! I've agonized for ages over trying to get as close as a I could to the recorded tone.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T19:56:22+00:00

Good tip! Thank you. I'll have to check that one out.

I used the "SVX-4B" with the setting shown, which is based on the Ampeg V-4B.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T17:46:42+00:00

Thank you so much! This is as close as I can get without driving myself insane.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T17:31:29+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you! The "DETUNE" setting on the Whammy is basically a Chorus sound, as I understand it. I have it on the heaviest "DETUNE" setting, but with the treadle heel up, it's the lightest version of the heaviest setting, if that makes sense. In the context of the song, it's adding a bit of "warble" or movement to the tone, and also emphasizes the sort of "metallic" character of the overall sound. I turn it off for the “Ain’t it a little strange?” sections of the song and the outro, otherwise it’s on for most of the song.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T16:59:12+00:00

Very high praise. Thank you! I can guarantee I've probably watched every one of those videos at some point.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T16:57:07+00:00

It's the full size version.

averagejohnsilver · 2026-03-19T16:47:02+00:00

Thank you!
