Hartman Electronics Vintage Germanium Fuzz Effect Pedal
A very musical sounding and faithful clone of the original Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face circuit using pairs of NOS ("new old-stock") PNP Germanium transistors carefully selected and paired for optimal texture, sensitivity and tone. Modern amenities include Level (Input Trim) control, true-bypass, on/off LED, and 9VDC-in jack.
In addition to the same Volume and Fuzz controls as the original, the Hartman Fuzz Level control helps to attenuate the strength of the input signal, enabling the fuzz to work with slightly hotter and higher-output pickups. Likewise, this control can be removed from the signal path by turning it to its far clockwise position, allowing the pedal to function in "stock" configuration.
Transistor pairs are selected from a range of old stock Germanium (including but not limited to: OC77, OC84, NKT271, AC128, NKT275, CV7007). Each Hartman Fuzz is voiced with NOS Germanium transistor-pairs selected for optimal leakage, gain, and reactance. All pedals are auditioned for their subjective attributes: clean-up, texture, and harmonic content with a real guitar in a human being's hands.
Hand-wired, rugged construction. Gain-select transistor pairing delivers sustain, smooth sexy decay, cleanup at the flick of your guitar volume, and the instantly recognizable yet indescribable tonal coloration of Germanium.
