Nein fuzz

I'm not a big fuzz guy. I like fuzz but more in the sense of specific context and usually when other people use it. Also I use a gained up Marshall master volume amp with humbuckers so fuzz usually sounds like shit. Also I use a buffer at the front of my board so a fuzz that can work after a buffer is a must.

So those who have built the nein fuzz, will it work for me? Is it good behind a buffer. It's jfets and not like regular bjt transistor fuzz. This video gave me hope, but is it buffer compatible?
 
I have liked it. I would characterize it like a mix between fuzz and overdrive. That being said, I do have a different rig. Mine is a single coil or humbucker guitar into an AC30 clone.

As for the buffer, I would have to test it. I don’t recall having a buffered pedal before it. That being said, you could place a pickup simulator in front to help with that issue. I have a mod board for a pickup simulator that you could insert before the pedal. If you want a board, send me a note and I’ll get it in the mail to you.

I appreciate the recommendation on the pick sim and I've tried those in the past in builds and always disliked them because the lack of dynamics...I use the volume and tone on my guitars a lot. So if the fuzz sucks after a buffer I'll skip it.

RJ is my HB and a fellow Detroiter. Plus he's genuinely a nice guy and can play his ass off. But whatever dude 😂
 
I quite like his playing. Wish I could play as well as he does. Less impressed with his facial expressions. It's a pet hate of mine. Sorry if this offends anyone but face making while playing to this extent drives me crazy.
