Franche Coma used a Big Muff Fuzz and a Gibson Explorer. You want to sound like Static Age? Use a Big Muff.
You opened the video with my favorite Misfits song, Hybrid Moments.
Surprisingly it seems like an incredibly versatile pedal. I could see having the Attitude control on an expression pedal would be useful.
Hybrid moments is the best! Thanks for watching, Matt!
Also, you’ve been doing basically personal videos for me. I only have one tattoo and it’s 138 in Roman numerals. So “We are 138” is my favorite tune
Very cool tattoo!! I think 138 was one of the first misfits songs I ever learned. 👍👍
That’s actually a pretty flexible and useful distortion pedal. Didn’t expect that!
It definitely is! Super fun one to play. Thanks so much for watching!
Loved the Hybrid Moments up top!
Yes!! 🤘🤘 so glad you liked it!!
Thank you Eric for this amazing demo 😊
Thanks so much for watching! 🤘🤘🤘
Great video Eric, was wondering how this sounded, this video answered every question I had. Keep up the great work
Thanks for watching!
Awesome demo Eric! Even though I'm not looking to get any drive pedals at the moment, it's always a joy to watch your demos!
JJ thanks so much for watching!!!
lots of sweet spots in there! great job!
There definitely are! Thanks so much for watching!
Sounds like the attitude adds a bit of a bent fuzz circuit like an octave up very cool
🤘🤘🤘
Sounds great on bass too! That's what I'd use it for if I find one.
My favorite Misfits songs are as follows:
Danzig-era Misfits - Astro Zombies, Where Eagles Dare, Skulls, We Are 138
Graves-Era Misfits - Dig Up Her Bones, Scream, Decending Angel
If you are looking for that "Doyle Guitar Tone", run an tube Ampeg SVT cranked and "BOOM" - Instant Misfits tone
Thanks so much for watching!! All fantastic songs!!
Cough/Cool; Bloodfeast; We Bite; She.
Pedal sounds great! Super cool looks and a very useable tone stack! I really dig how gnarly the fuzz gets. It sounds like it can approximate the sound of a lot of those old records!
I could go on about how much I love early ‘Fits but like the man says, “moments like this never last.”
Cheers, Eric! Great covers and a great review!
Thanks so much Zach! I’m so happy I got to make this one!!
Hey Erick amazing video bro, the pedal aesthetics is beyond incredible and sound huge and raw. Really hard to find one, sadly
My Misfits songs:
She, Nike a Go-Go, Death Comes Ripping, Saturday Night, Scream, Shining.. there is too many 🥴
It's definitely a rare pedal! I was super excited to borrow it and make this video. Thanks so much for watching!
Masterful Eric, your demo’s are masterful!!! That is a pretty cool sounding pedal, that I have never heard of. To be honest, I never got into The Misfits. I don’t know why, but they just never appealed to me. Because of that, I can say that I don’t know any of their tunes, let alone have a favorite. GWAR kind of falls into the same category for me, a seemingly cool band that I just never got into. Anyway, enough of my bullshit, great video!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Oh man, GWAR! hahaha, I haven't thought about that band in a while. I'm in the same boat with them - never really got into them. I love me some Misfits though! Thanks so much for watching Chris! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video
Awesome! I just ordered one for guitar! Plus just ordered a black Rickenbacker 4003 and just bid on a Ampeg SVT CLASSIC AMP-HEAD
Heck yeah!!!
@@EricMerrow I won the Ampeg SVT Classic amp- head. Plus got a Ampeg SVT-4 PRO amp- head, a GK800RB amp- head, a Fender BXR Combo amp, a Ampeg 4x10 cab, Marshall JCM 800 cab, Fender Twin Reverb. Now just need a 8x10 Ampeg cab. Then can order a second Marahall Cab to have a full stack then a Marshall JCM800. Then a Mesa Boogie after that.
@@EricMerrow and now just got a girl that can play rythym and sing. I'm gonna let her play on my Gibson V and Marshall with this pedal for Misfits songs with me on bass. Just got a second guitarist too with a PA System plus knows a drummer. First practice Sunday
Oersonal opinion, I hate the sound on its own but in a mix it is absolutely gorgeous ❤
My friend played mine and was blown away. He bought one for himself. He was hugely disappointed to find that the quality control was different. He had taken a pic of his favorite settings from my pedal but just couldn't dial what he had on mine in on his. He later sold that pedal. I don't understand what happened there. He made a profit selling it though.
He did play it on his guitar on the same amp in testing both.
You’re great!
Thanks so much Mike!
Love the shirt!!!!!!! I’m a lefty and I do EVERYTHING lefty except guitar lol. But I always got to support the south paw!
Heck yeah to us southpaws!
Fave song? Hard to pick one... Hatebreeders, Nike A GoGo, Hybrid Moments, Green Hell, Wolfsblood, Devillock...
🤘🤘🤘
Vampira, this thing sounds great!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video, my favorite song is dig up her bones
That’s a great one!!!
Gnarly tone. Love it! Pity it’s not in regulation.
Huge misfits fan here! Pretty much anything goes. Soft spots for We are 138, 20 Eyes, Last Caress, Green Hell, Die Die My Darling, Teenagers from Mars, Hatebreeders…
Yeah, I wish it was a full production pedal!! Thanks for watching 🤘🤘
Nice! What guitar is that?
It is a Rivolta Mondata IIHB
👍
This actually sounds better than Doyle's tone..
hahah, thanks for watching!!!
@@EricMerrow this sounds seriously awesome. I gotta find someone to clone it hahahha
Duh. Technique is too good too lol
This wasn't Doyle. Check out Franche Coma, unsung fucking hero.
@@davidbouchard2499 let me know if you find someone
A modded RAT distortion?
I'm not exactly sure what the circuit is, and it's been so long since I had my hands on the pedal. But I don't think its a rat-type distortion - it felt more like a fuzz to me, especially with the control that seemed to alter the bias and make the overall texture sound different.
@@EricMerrow thanks!!! Your vid/review its so good that now I want something similar, since The Misfits pedal its no longer available. Based on your experience what would come close to it?
Horror Business since I was 9 years old
Heck yeah!
My favorite Misfits song is Dig Up Her Bones
Such a great one!!!!
Did that pedal gave you "attitude"?😅
😂😂👍👍
BLOODFEAST
right on! Thanks for watching!
Nice enough pedal but the only place I can find it is on Reverb and the price was $775.00 USD ...WTF
is that about!!! What are these guys smoking??? They had 3 pedals all used and all in this price range.
@@FuzzlordEffects It is still outrageous!
this pedal has many competitors in the same ballpark. it also is hardly a mind blower. I have bought over 200 pedals in 5 years. I have now kept about 80. I have had a peak in them all and taught myself a lot of basics. In short I have a good idea of what I am looking at. My guess this pedal would be really pushing it asking much more than $300.00 USD I don't get it. Why are you reviewing a pedal that we can not easily find to buy??? Another thing I review pedals and I publish a current price. It's a no brainer! Why doesn't everyone. I have done so for 5 years on 1719 reviews without a single complaint. Even if over time there was an increase. Add to that I have 485,462 readers that could have commented or complained but do not.I ask you if you hear a great pedal
what is the first thing you want to know???
And the answer isn't "Does it come in other colors.?" :-)
Yeah, it was a very limited run last year. Sold out immediately so now the folks who got them are selling them for profit.
@@Paul_Lenard_Ewing I made this video because I was able to borrow it from a friend and it gave me a great chance to play some Misfits songs and share the pedal with everyone. My goal isn't to sell this pedal to anyone and generally my demo videos are based on the features of pedals rather than price.Thank you for watching the video.
Where can I get one of those
misfits petals
At this point, you’ll need to search for secondhand pedals as it was a limited run and sold out when they were launched. I’d check out reverb.com or eBay
I don't really care for the sound of this pedal, and the attitude knob makes it sound like complete crap.
Sounds like it’s not the pedal for you. What kind of fuzz/drive tones do you like?
