Title: Help Name My Box
Post by: theaxeman on June 09, 2004, 06:09:06 AM
Hi all!

I am building a Fuzz Face copy and I am having trouble thinking of a
name. Any ideas would be great.

Axeman, I don't have my copy all the way built, but I had already tested it and mine has a Thick warm drive to it, so I had picked out a few names for it, 1 was the Fudge Face, if you like your welcome to it.

Just an idea, but if you are planning on making a series of boxes, it's fun to have names that are associated.  My pedals are the Wasp, Honey B, Mantis, Fly etc.  My fuzzface variant is the Honey B, coz it is smooth like honey.

I guess if your FF is the Purple Haze, your next pedal can be the Green something, then the Yellow Devil, then...

cheers

Well...Since you seem to like the name "Purple Haze" and the mere fact that the box is a Fuzz Face, I'd go for
Purple Faze.   :P

WHATEVER you do, you mustn't name it what your girlfriend/wife wants to call your firstborn.   :wink:

I know this because my brother unsuspectingly named his new dog "George" and copped shit for weeks from the pregnant wife.  (and it was a boy, who they subsequently called James).

Listen to it first. I made a wiring error with my first one and nearly christened it "Fart Face".  :D
