Hi Christo,

Try playing with a Les Paul and use a Big Muff fuzz box. Oh... and  
play with the neck pick-up. You may also experiment with turning down  
the high frequencies, either by rolling off the top on the Big Muff  
or by the tone knob on the Les Paul, or a combination. The fuzz box  
will treat the signal differently depending on the guitars tone knob  
setting.
