This is one of my Fuzz Face rebuilds. Occasionally I take custom orders from customers who have a recent Fuzz Face and want it rebuilt to original 1966 Arbiter England specifications.  So, this is a Fuzz Face enclosure which has been completely gutted, stripped and then professionally refinished. The finish is by a professional airbrush artist. The photos should show all you need to know, but this one is in a sort of red-burst, beautifully done and to a very high gloss. Text is all in gold. Tasteful pretty thing that I don't think the photos do enough justice to.The circuit is accurate to a vintage original (1966) Fuzz Face (issue 1, Arbiter England PCB) with a carefully selected set of very hard to find NOS 1960's Newmarket NKT275 transistors.On this Works version I have added a Bias adjustment which gives added flexibility to the circuit. Traditional vintage Fuzz Face tones are easily found here and more either side of the usual spectrum. The Fuzz control and Bias also work well together to help you find a balance that suits your ears.  Does not sound wooly or muddy like some Fuzz Faces can, plenty of bite to get your fuzz tone heard and of course it cleans up perfectly from your guitars volume control. Tons of fuzz and volume available from this unit. This really should end your search for the perfect germanium Fuzz Face.The base plate is custom made and is an exact replica as you would find on an original early 1966 Arbiter England Fuzz Face and includes small rubber feet. The plate has my Works/custom screen-print.Jack sockets are by Cliff UK, the true mechanical bypass switch is by Carling and the potentiometers are Citec UK. All internals have been replaced, 100% handmade and tuned by me, Steve Williams. None of the parts within the donor case are used. Starting at £1.00, this is a three day auction.I ship Worldwide, tracked/signed for (double boxed) and all my pedals come with a 5 year guarantee.Feel free to contact me here if you have any questions or via my website or Facebook page.Please note that I take photographs with a fairly high zoom which tends to pick up dust.Starting price £1.00. This is a three day auction.
