Here a fuzz master shows you how it's done. Still dial things back, especially via your instrument's volume and tone pots as well as the plugin itself and you'll find it a lot more versatile than its four controls suggest, along with coil splits if using a guitar with splittable humbuckers + plus the way it interacts with the front-end of what you're hitting with it if applicable, it makes a BIG difference.

It covers nearly every variety of fuzz/scuzz flavours which I really get mileage out of despite being a guitar player, bass player and engineer who rarely uses fuzz boxes/pedals.

This little one is more than capable, able and willing of being a truly monstrous filthy (scuzz) fuzz in the vein of a Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz (Jus Osbourne/Dopethrone-era Electric Wizard, Stephen Carpenter on Deftones' Around The Fur, Brian "Head" Welch + James "Munky" Shaffer on Korns' Untouchables album in particular amongst a number of other notable users of the now long discontinued great in Boss's catalogue but listing all the doom and sludge riff maestros would take aeons, you'll know the sounds when you have dialled them in) and Roger Mayer's infamous Octavia fuzz circuit (a design with has seen numerous revisions over the years along with plenty of clones and inspired by pedals).
