Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.35% — somewhat different

The Death By Audio Destruction is a fuzz and distortion pedal from the Brooklyn boutique manufacturer, delivering extreme high-gain distortion and fuzz tones in the DBA tradition of pushing guitar effects to their sonic limits. Features controls for Volume, Tone, and Fuzz/Gain for shaping the extreme distortion character. Part of Death By Audio's range of extreme gain pedals.
The EarthQuaker Devices Zoar is a high-gain distortion and fuzz pedal with independent Distortion, Fuzz, Tone, and Volume controls that allow the two gain stages to be blended and sculpted independently. It spans a wide range from tight, compressed distortion to chaotic, blooming fuzz by adjusting the balance of the two stages. The Zoar suits heavy psych, doom, stoner rock, and noise rock contexts where high gain, dense harmonic content, and extreme sustain are primary requirements.
