This morning I came an interesting little deal that some of you might be interested in. The deal is for the Dunlop JH-F1 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face. A lot of people know about the ‘red’ classic fuzz face which uses germanium transistors, the JH-F1 uses the BC108 silicon transistor.. which replicates what Jimi used on ’69-’70 Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face.
Additionally, it replicates the handwired brown circuit board with no solder mask and circuitry matching to the original specs.
Check out this comparison video. I thought it might be great to talk about the fuzz in comparison with other varieties of fuzz faces:
Now.. let’s talk about the deal. The Dunlop JH-F1 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face lists for $214.28, and is usually available for $150, but is currently on sale for only $127.49 at Amazon.com and that includes FREE shipping. Not too bad right? At the time of this post, there were 15 units available at this price, so if this sounds interesting, you might want to jump on it!
If you own the Dunlop JH-F1 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face, please comment below and let us know what you think of it!

I have this exact pedal and I absolutely love it. Has not left my board ONCE since then. Thick fuzz or solo boost of gain, the pedal has got it. True bypass too. Worth the space it takes on your board.

I will soon be releasing an effect that will allow you to plug in any of the above mentioned transistors as well as BC109 to get all those sounds from one box
