Analog Man SunFace Fuzz BART Germanium Transistors Sundial Power Jack LED

Analog Man Sun Face is our best selling silicon / germanium fuzz and a favorite at TGT11.

Important to consider is that a germaniumfuzz likes a little gain from the amp - ideal is a Marshall Plexi played loud. As an alternative you can put a light overdrive after the fuzz to simulate an amp played loud.

Silicon fuzz often has more gain than germanium and it generally works better in a clean amp than germanium.

More on this particular transistor - BART:

These became available in 2020, BIG fuzz sounds but excellent cleanup throughout the volume pot range on your guitar. Cuts through great, some edge and crunch to the sounds. Run the FUZZ knob down a bit and the BIAS up a bit for cleaner sounds like the white dot NKT275. These will use the slightly larger case as they are too big for the small case. This case allows any options (top jacks, on/off pot, top power jack if no CLEAN knob). These are sometimes just a little noisy (white noise/hiss) and come in Medium-high to high gain. Put a note on your order if you prefer medium-high or high..

About Analog Man Sun Face:

Analog Man Sun Face is hand-built in the USA in small gold boxes, with their own USA made SUNFACE circuit board which is a VERY high quality board. It is better quality than almost any other fuzzface clone you will find, with shielding, plated through-holes, etc to meet military specs. It also has an internal CLEAN trim pot (white knob). This trim pot acts just like turning down the VOLUME knob on your guitar, to clean up the fuzz. It can be used to preset the sound as with the volume knob rolled back a bit. It also allows easier control of the volume knob on your guitar when the white CLEAN trim pot is turned a bit. It can also be used to kill Radio Frequency Interference, which may be a problem on high gain pedals in some areas, by turning it down a hair. like all our handmade pedals, the Sunface has true bypass, so when off they do not alter your sound at all. The CLEAN trimpot will also allow the sunface to work better after a vintage style wah pedal, without having to use a foxrox wah retrofit.
