However, I'm fairly certain if organic sounding octaves is your thing and you want octave down and up then the octron probably cant be beat. If you are only after octave up then I would go different route possibly but not to say the octron has a bad octave up, it's just sort of designed to sound best with the octave down with it so for the purists, you may find something else "better" than the octron for solely octave up. The octron is good enough at it if you dont use the low octave or very low octave settings but the high octave is more of a filtered Octavia style but the pedal leans toward mutron style overall and the high octave is filtered because it's meant to be used with the low together. Some analog ictave pedals will handle chord better than others though. Reviews from Reverb.This is the most importnat info right here. Here’s another perspective on the Humdinger’s tones from a great player: Here’s the Humdinger in action getting some FAT fuzz tones in a band setting: We care for our pedals that have gone out into the world to make lovely noise and risk getting banged up on the job… If you have a JDM Pedal that needs some TLC, just write to us!

Humbucker equipped guitars also sound great with the Humdinger, and neck-pickup octave tones sound smoother and rounder compared to Strat single coils. My Stratocaster LOVES this pedal, and it loves my Strat. At $169, this handmade, boutique quality dual-effect pedal won’t break your budget, and provides you with tones you won’t find elsewhere. Needless to say, having a switchable octave/boost in front of the fuzz multiplies the tonal possibilities. The input filter switch lets you “tighten up” the fuzz with a filter similar to what you get from putting a Rangemaster in front of the fuzz. Cranked, it ranges from crispy, ripping-velcro fuzz tones to British rock style overdrive, adjustable with the “texture” knob. The Fuzz side is a flexible Silicon Tonebender-style fuzz that cleans up exceptionally well with your guitar’s volume pot to provide classic rhythm tones. With the switch, you have the option to set that to off in case you are playing a clean octave and want it a bit brighter. Generally, the octave up sounds best with a bit of tone rolled off, especially when bumped into the fuzz. The tone cut switch allows you to have a tone roll-off already set when you switch in the octave. It simply makes for a stronger octave effect. Please note – the “Grit” switch (Octave Up Side) from the original video been retired in favor of a “Tone Cut” switch, and the “Octave Up” side is wired with the grit switch “on”.
The octave can be switched out, allowing you to use the octave side as a JFET boost to give the fuzz side a kick into overdrive bliss when called for. Using JFET preamp and output stages, the classic octave-up effect took on a new smoothness and started behaving more “player friendly” – it no longer dies away so quickly, and responds far better to volume pot changes on your guitar. So we took the octave circuit back to the drawing board. I’m a big fan of Octavia, the Foxx Tone Machine, and similar fuzz/octave pedals, but I have found that each one has a narrow “sweet spot” on the guitar where it sounds good, and the rest of the range leaves a lot to be desired. The JDM Humdinger is a switchable Octave/Fuzz pedal, in the tradition of the Foxx Tone Machine, but with many improvements. **Please let us know when you order if you prefer top jacks or side jacks.
