Is this the fuzz face you where looking for? I bet it is...
The rich harmonic content of the USSR nos Germaniums is a perfect fit for this classic fuzz face circuit. Added external bias potentiometer on the side for on the fly adjustment [serious tone to be had just from having one at your disposal].
Now, what i try to achieve with every fuzz i build:
-Great dynamics, a nice taper of the potentiometers and control over the fuzz with the guitar volume pot. These fuzzes will give you the classic Hendrix chime of the rolled down volume pot, in a heartbeat. But then blast it and it will make your amp fuzz up like it should.
-Perfectly matched transistors. Germaniums are temperamental. I hand select every pair and i audition each pedal before and after the installation of the transistors. A very tidius process that make a germanium fuzz what it is. There is no shortcut there. Either you invest the time and succeed or you end up with a mediocre pedal. This ensures great tone and low noise.
-Build guality. From the enclosure to the positioning of the knobs to the bakelite point to point board construction, down to the last piece every thing is of the best quality. This pedal will serve you for year to come. This type of construction is hustle free, long lasting and easily repairable [if there is a need to].
Nothing more to say, a pedal to stay on any pedal board for ever. Instant love!
