Ever played an original FuzzFace from around 1970? (HINT: Not AT ALL the same sound as ones with the same namesake being mass-produced currently.) Fulltone's has two intentionally mismatched (for harmonic content) silicon transistors that snarl and spit... not for the meek! If you put the "Fuzz" on 10 you will rip, and you might get all sorts of oscillation and weirdness... but that's Rock. Don't try using it with a wah wah... you can't, and neither could Jimi, without it screaming and howling. You want polite and quiet? Go elsewhere. You want art in a box? Come on in. Housed in a 16 gauge steel box and powder coated deep blue, this pedal is a bit unruly but with some warmth... ideal for older 4 input Marshall amps, it has much more FUZZ than the '69 Pedal and includes a Mid control for extra clarity and cut. Fulltone got their hands on Eric Johnson's Blue Fuzzface that he used from Tones through Ah Via Musicom period (now owned by Ian Moore) and incorporated a few of its tonal secrets into the '70 pedal with staggering sonic results!
Features
- A loving tribute to the silicon-transistor-based fuzzbox of the late 1960s and early 1970s, favored by none other than Jimi Hendrix
- Intentionally mismatched silicon transistors offer a highly defined fuzz snarl, with significantly greater stability than germanium transistors
- Upgrades the 2-knob design of the original with an additional Mids knob to sharpen up your clarity and bite
- Robust metal chassis with 4 knurled knobs for disassembly — no screwdriver necessary
- Compact size is far more pedalboard-friendly than this stompbox’s vintage inspiration
