Feature:
The Tweak switch is somewhat like a tone and filter in one. There is enough gain and volume as well...what else would you need? True bypass is a big factor for any guitarist as it doesn't effect the sound when off. It's built like a tank and not big and clunky like some fuzz boxes. Boss AC adaptor or any thing of that same power rating is prefered..so that makes find power supplies easy.
Quality:
I have only had this for a couple of days and it seems well built. It's solid and appears to be built very strong on the outside...no idea what it looks like inside.
Value:
I give this an 7 only because you can get a Rat or Big Muff for less. I think it's as good as the ProCo Rat and the Big Muff and they are less in price and both made in the USA as opposed to China where the Tweak Fuzz is made. The Russian Big Muff is a great deal!
Desirability:
As far as looks it's better than average but not extremely cool looking. I will say that it's different looking than most...which is a good thing.
Sound:
This pedal is a cross between a ProCo Rat and a Big Muff.It's very versatile and the tweak knob is helpful in that area. It provides lots of thick distortion/fuzz sustain(Like a Big Muff) and very expressive harmonics(Like a Rat).
Support:
Did not have to deal with them, so I will give them an 8 for now
Overall:
I'm very happy with this pedal as I own and have owned many fuzzes. I think it's original yet building on the sounds from the Big Muff and RAT. It's a quality made product with quality sound and Duncan should be proud of it, especially because they make pickups mostly. It's sound is not as original as a Maestro or a Guyatone Fuzz, but more useful than the latter(which is most important). I like it alot and I think it's a keeper. Hope this helps.

Feature:
I like everything about the pedal. However,instead of silicon transistors,it could have used one of each. GERMANIUM AND SILICON
Quality:
Built nice.
Value:
A little bit pricey but worth it. I wish Roger Mayer would build a fuzz like this
Desirability:
I would by another one jsut to have it
Sound:
I think this pedal is the bomb. I can get fuzz face sounds,big muff sounds,and rat sounds. It sounds great with my Vox wah and Marshall valvestate vs100. Cleans up well too. Killer fuzz!!!
Support:
never had a problem with it
Overall:
they need to make one with both silicon and germanium version. That would be nice. Like I said I get great sounds out of all the settings
