BehringerSF300 3-Mode Fuzz Distortion Effects Pedal

Oh... My... Days... The FUZZ!!!!this totally blew me away! I just tried the slash octave fuzz and returned it for this!!!!The slash octave fuzz is great but doesn't do anywhere near what this does fuzz wise and the octave feature on the slash fuzz wouldn't get used nearly enough for it to be worth the money so I returned it and tried this and I'm so glad!! I'll probs get a cheap octave pedal for the rare time I need it.. If I ever even do...First of all.. Off the bat. . I'm a contracted professional guitarist as of August 2023. I'm from the UK🇬🇧 and I play all over the world in front of thousands of people now thanks to God blessing me! I'm based out of Texas USA🇺🇸🤠now, and so I get my hands on all sorts of neat kit mainly over the top expensive gear I refuse to use lol...And that's why I'm here....£22.....and it blew my mind and overshadowed the slash fuzz pedal.. And I'm a huge slash fan too...sorry mate, I still love you though!Out the box, first it's behringer. You know it's going to be reliable, I've used them since I was 14 on and off, never had any issues and good Quality for low prices!It's bright orange which is super cool, helps too in the pitch black I often find myself in on stage or with the blues purples and white lights to find the pedal😂it's light weight but not so light it'd be flimsy. It is plastic yes but I don't get these people who break plastic pedals... I play anything from modern rock style worship music to literally heavy metal like bring me the horizon and all inbetween like guns n roses kings of Leon and also country music being a huge genre I play a lot of.... And never ever have I cracked or broken a plastic pedal, like, what 'yall doin with these pedals please lmao? And I get really into my gigs too and super energetic and aggressive😭😂The knobs are quite stiff (no rude Jokes pls there's youngsters here👀😂) which in one sense is a bit tricky having large man hands as they're also quite small, but also you can tell because they're rigid they're solid and well constructed and less likely to get moved by accident during transport for example losing your settings.But there's so many different options you can use!!!!!The two levels of fuzz the lil switch provides are so different and they're both excellent too you can get so much from just that solo switch alone then all the other settings on top it!!!It has a boost feature too which is nice but I prefer my sonicake boost, it kinda has a higher treble higher octave setting fuzz and then the lower thick blues tone lower octave setting, both sound sick!I actually use this in conjunction with my JOYO American amp sim Distortion pedal thingy, that orange thingy, and wowwwwww, I'm gona do a video for you guys so you can Hear it and edit and upload this review with it, I'm going to review other kit I've used lately I've fallen in love with like the budget guitars by Harley Benson and recently my new fave go to rock guitar, the Hartwood revival hallow body guitar with whammy bar, and slap them on YouTube for 'yall interested in seeing how you can record and gig as a pro with technically "budget" kit and blow minds and shred out solos sounding Gibson and fender level! With no fancy software patches etc and flash amps!So as mentioned... I'm contracted... Which means I need a pro set up which I used to think meant I need to invest a lot of this cash into the gear.... Wrong. It's a different world now...The most expensive pedal I own is my strymon big sky, and my late dad bought me that as a gift when I got signed. He got me my first guitar as a teen and encouraged me all these years and fortunately got to see me get where he always saw me as a kid as a musician before he passed, and so this reverb pedal is the most expensive, and precious Kit I own And Use And Will NEVER use anything different reverb wise. But that pedal is worth my entire guitar collection I'm using at gigs and in the studio... Meaning no, I'm not using expensive ass Fenders And Gibsons, by choice!!! My practice Amp is literally a fender 10watt Amp, that's on the road or at home though lol otherwise I'm using fender or Marshall stacks in studio or gigsPoint is... Don't listen to people who say you need BOSS ... You need Gibson or fender or you're not a real musician who's made it "big"... It's rubbish... My pro rig is made up of yeah my strymon, but then mainly JOYO , Chinese $18 KMIZE, AZOR pedals... (if you don't own them and on A Budget buy them now... Reverb, dig delay, crunch Distortion, overdrive, chorus and their tuner, you will be blown away and have change left!!) and so I'm no snob clearly and I'm blessed enough my budget can afford the high end stuff. Save that for your amps and all that technical stuff your guitar tech gets to use for you lolAnd this has now joined my pro rig board! Welcome to the family behringer fuzz!But this fuzz pedal is a game changer on your set up. Add it to Distortion for extra depth and texture. You won't regret it. It inspired a new song were working on, the riff came to me by just messing on with this pedal out the box and now it's growing into an excellent song with a lot of potential!Buy it, you don't like it, return it with Amazon's free returns.. No harm done.Also FYI my board isn't set up like that... It's a new board and I've just dug a load of these pedals out since getting to the uk as all my other pedals are in the USA. And so I'm in the process of setting it up properly before taping them down in the right order. I usually have them lol, so my fuzz, Distortion amps etc will be on the same level and my strymon usually goes to the top with my other accent pedals ie chorus etc

This product came within stated delivery times. I am fairly new to playing guitar, have only been playing for a year now and wanted to ‘experiment’ with some accessories. Having read the reviews I thought I would buy this considering the price. I actually bought a Behringer TO-800 Tube Overdrive too so am writing this review to incorporate that as well.. again I am new to this so wanted to try other methods. I have two guitars both of which entry level Rockburns bought from Amazon- one being an Stratocaster style the other Les Paul2 style. I had already bought new/better strings and purchased a better amp too at around £70, again not top end but better than most ‘entry level’ ones.I read some reviews beforehand about being made of cheap plastic etc and not worth the money and all that, to be honest I done think they could be further from the truth.Packaging was really good the box looked like a good quality product inside and indeed I was not disappointed. The product certainly does not look or feel cheap. At first I thought it was metal but you could tell it was strong plastic. How this could be an issue I don’t know unless you have feet like a rino or intend using it with sledge hammer I cant see why this would pose an issue. To be honest unless you are one of these snobs that think you only get great quality from spending £100’s you will love it. I am no professional guitarist but can tell good quality and this is made very well indeed. Cant see spending stupid money for something a fraction of the price, unless you are a top rock band and producing your recording your own music!There is a battery compartment, I recommend you read the manual first !! I don’t often do this lol.. but it does clearly state how to access this and it is very simple, I think you can find this on youtube anyway but READ THE INSTRUCTIONS !!I also bought an adapter for it which all works well together.The sound is really great There is nothing spectacular here, just a good if generic pedal that does what it says on the box.It works, be better if it was easier to find the battery compartment. A sign saying 'Batteries Here.' would be a good idea. I found it after watching a YouTube video. Simple really.Behringer is a big company and although not great innovators, they do know their stuff when it comes to quality and value. Go ahead and buy one!Basically this pedal represents superb value for money. Good range of tones and sustain.I think the build quality is absolutely fine. Yes, it's not metal but it's still very robust. All in all, this is a steal.

It is well made and well priced, pretty sturdy. Only issue is that there's more background hiss than with most pedals. But for the price I can't really complain and it's not worth getting a refund as it works fine and I need it

Good value for money guitar pedal. It is solid and well built. It has a heavy feel to it. It works well with a battery of an adaptor.....important to get the right type of adaptor (not all 9v adaptors do the job and the wrong one might damage your pedal for good as I did with my previous pedal!). It is easy to set up and use and produces a good fuzzy sound. Works well. Well pleased.

The Fuzz Pedal:This is a clone of a Boss fuzz pedal. I bought it for the bass guitar. It sounds amazing. I am not sure I'd trust the plastic case and jack's that are secured only by the solder on the circuit board to last but it's very cheap and for home use is unbeatable.If you want to try a fuzz pedal for the same price as a cup of coffee and a happy meal look no further.The Chorus Pedal:I have only tried this on bass so it may be different on guitar. I found this to produce an oscillating phase shift type sound rather than the Boss pedal it is attempting to copy. For bass I would not recommend. If it's good on guitar I will update this review.

This pedal gives you more than its worth. Very impressed how good this is for £20. Sounds great on a bass! The casing is plastic but feels sturdy. Takes a 9v battery or 9v power supply.
