Undefeated trick for way heavy fuzz with an HP is a buffer or *very* slight boost in front. Albini tone chasers steer clear.

So the Albini version is less fuzzy, essentially?

Here's a fairly recent video, with some nifty info

As for buffers before the HP - Steve has his MXR Noise Gate always on, and always before the HP

Great vid, @DGWVI! I wasn't aware of this one, and it seems to have a LOT of bells and whistles. This is the one I'd love to build, but... I don't think that's gonna happen! Haven't gotten to rotary dials quite yet anyways...
