For sale is a rare custom Prescription Electronics “HayFuzz Experience” fuzz/octave/swell pedal, hand-built and personally inscribed by Matt Johnson.
This is serial #002, dated 12/30/07 on the back plate, with a warm handwritten note:
“Larry! Thanks for everything! #002 Matt Johnson”
It’s a one-of-a-kind piece with custom psychedelic “HayFuzz Experience” graphics, black knobs labeled FUZZ / HAZE and LOVE / CONFUSION, and the classic trippy branding. Built around the legendary Foxx Tone Machine-inspired circuit with independent footswitches for Fuzz, Octave (up), and Swell (backwards-style envelope attack).
Key Features:
- Thick, singing Hendrix-inspired fuzz with excellent sustain and harmonics
- Octave up that tracks beautifully
- Swell mode for those expressive, violin-like swells
- Standard input/output jacks (labeled “STRAT” on this unit)
- True bypass (confirmed working)
- 9V center-negative power (standard)
Condition Notes:
The bright yellow enclosure shows typical paint cracking and edge wear from age/use (common on these yellow units), but everything functions perfectly. All switches, pots, and jacks work as they should. No major dings or issues — this pedal is ready to gig or collect.
These Prescription Electronics pedals are cult classics among tone chasers. The Experience is especially sought after for its versatile, inspiring sounds. Low serial + personal inscription from the builder makes this a standout piece for any serious collection.
Comes with the original enclosure (no box or manual, but the back plate tells the full story).
