The Dallas Arbiter "Fuzz Face" is the oldest stomp pedal with a switch. This fuzz pedal, released by "Arbitrer Electronics Ltd" in the fall of 1966, is composed of a very simple circuit and became widely known and popular due to its use by Jimi Hendrix. At that time, distortion pedals were not yet widely used, and their usage and sound were also in their infancy. The unique appearance of the "Fuzz Face" was inspired by the cast bottom feet of a microphone stand, and after being manufactured until 1975, it was manufactured by "Dallas Music Industries" until 1977. This unit has a dark blue case equipped with a silicon transistor "BC108C" and is a vintage item made around the beginning of 1970. Transistor technology at that time was still in its infancy, and it is said that the germanium transistors used at the time of release had poor operational stability due to temperature effects, so they were replaced by silicon transistors from mid-1967 to 1968. This unit is equipped with the original "TKF/Telefunken BC108C" and the other has been replaced with "CDIL BC108C". The characteristics of the silicon model can be heard in the latter half of Jimi Hendrix's career, but this unit also has the rough and rough sound unique to silicon. The "FUZZ" knob is dry and light until about 3 o'clock, but after that it emits a thick and muddy sound that is a real fuzz. In combination with the guitar volume control, you can enjoy the vintage sound of the past, and you can enjoy "that" tone that is thick and clear, different from later fuzzes. Some parts have been replaced, including one transistor and foot switch, and the rubber feet on the bottom cover. No other board parts have been replaced, and the jacks, pots, and capacitors are also stocked with original parts. The exterior is not damaged much, the operation is stable, there is no scratching, and you can enjoy the sound of the time. The original "Fuzz Face" is not widely available. This is a must-have product for pedal enthusiasts, as well as those looking for a great fuzz pedal. Don't miss it.
