Rare Discontinued Germanium fuzz pedal from Jam Pedals. Not to be confused with the Silicone version. This version Is one of the best versions that sounds closest to a 60's vintage fuzz face. It actually uses DECADES OLD NOS germanium transistors giving great 60's fuzz tones. Best pedal for vintage tones - I use it for my Hendrix style playing. REALLY going to miss it as it has great clean up and glassy tones. Check online for your own research people swear by these and prefer them over analog man fuzz pedalsThis pedal is hand made in Greece and is also signed and dated from 2012, its a rare original of their fuzz pedal range. This appears to No 491 of their limited production.from their main website: The most crucial ingredient when it comes to a Germanium Fuzz pedal’s quality, sound and “clean- ability”, is transistor choice. In our experience there’s nothing quite like the CV7003, military-spec OC44 germanium transistors.The few-and-far-between CV7003, are extremely consistent and heat-resistant, much more so than the AC128 and NKT275 transistors, placing the Fuzz Phrase in a league of its own. The CV7003’s consistency is so dependable that an external bias pot is rendered unnecessary. You are likely to never have to adjust the bias on your pedal!Each individual transistor is measured for gain and leakage and then hand picked and matched through sound audition.
