As I commented (below) I have two of these NKT275 white dotted and yes they are worth every penny....In fact you will be sooooo spoiled that other fuzzes just wont make it for you after using NKT275 white dot......It's just an entirely different (better ) animal
Got my Sunface around 1997. It's the slightly larger box 4.75 x 3.5 with the jacks on the top. After 2007 the boxes were 4.5 x 3.25 with jacks on the side. It has the TI UK transistors. My other fuzz is an early hand painted Monsterpiece NPN fuzz, which is closer in tone and drive as the NKT 275. In the early 70's I had a silver Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face, but probably traded it for a bag of weed.
I have one of these (Analogman NKT 275 white dotted fuzzes And also a 1st gen Sun lion (Sun face w/Beano boost) which also has NKT275 White dotted (with both sun face and on the Beano boost treb booster) So I seem to be sort of spoiled I guess because almost every FF I ever try Just don't make it for me...a few sound ok.......one other fuzz I have and like also is a Old Vox tonebender with OC81d transistors.....I will occasionally use a FF with BC108c Silicon transistor when I'm looking for even more aggressive gain (ALA early Pink Floyd (ECHOS on meddle album) or I'll also use BC108c Transistor when i'm outside or in a hot club (temperature sensitive) All I can say is The Fuzz face is an instrument all to itself and holds an amazing amount of usable shades of gain....(If I had to, I could use a fuzz face "on" through a whole show and just vary the vol.knob (for the clean up) These fuzzes work best when "fuzz" is full up accept possibly when using a silicon transistor version (that has a bit much gain already and "fuzz" knob can be dialed back just a little. Actually most of the people I see trying a fuzz face that say I just don't like fuzz...I find are not using it correctly. First of all Fuzz faces want to be FIRST in your signal chain and if not THEY WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY PEDAL WITH ANY BUFFERING BEFORE THEM. For a wah to work correctly before the fuzz the wah has to be "fuzz friendly" in that it has a little buffer in it....I know this sounds counter to what I just said about using anything with a buffer before a fuzz face...But this is the one exception because if the wah does not have a buffer and is placed before the FF it will No#1 Not give the proper wide "WOW wow" it will be more like a "weu weu" OR No#2 will give a shreak self oscillation type feedback......PS If you have any Fuzz face questions " reply to this comment" and I'll try to answer them for ya
Which analog man sun face will sound best for an extremely low gain fuzz? Not rolling my volume knob down(, but with the pedal itself turned down?! I like just a hint of sizzle when I play!
I’m about to pay 1200 pounds for one of these but I gotta say -the tones I hear from this thing both cleaned up and full balls out on many rigs with many different combos are the best I have heard and only rivaled by some tone benders (in a different way) and high end tube amps. There is a reason they are so popular. May not be worth what they are selling for-but your money is safe -they are not gonna go down.
Johnny...I dont say this lightly but when you get and use the Fuzz face you mentioned (Analogman NKT275 white dotted) that you pay $1200 for you will find...It was worth the money and if not you are not using a strat or have an amp that is not quite right so before deciding you made a mistake Go to a music store find a fender strat ....then find a older Marshall superlead (plexi or early 4 input metal front 100 watt. plug strat into FF (with an old carbon comp battery (alkaline will work but the older carbon batteries sound better......If that Marshall and strat combo w/ the ff does not sound great.....respond to me here and i'll buy the fuzz from you myself
Bollocks!!! 1000 pounds is mad lad money! Excellent playing. BTW, I got my Gypsy Vibe in the mail today and played all day, feeling deeply impressed by its tones and how cool looking it is. Have y'all ever considered giving the option to your buyers to pay extra for an expression pedal jack/output whereby the player can control the big black knob's setting and having the black knob's current setting be the maximum speed setting for the expression pedal to control? I would buy another gypsy vibe if you offered this. In my opinion, that option would make your Gypsy Vibe almost perfect. Next, add Stereo input and output options. Finally, include a 3 way switch that selects what the expression pedal controls, volume, throb or big black knob, with the knobs' settings being the expression pedal's max control. In my opinion that would be vibe PERFECTION. I would pay good money for a vibe with these options.
Thanks so much for the nice comment. Really glad do you love the vibe! Sadly I don’t think that something we can offer any time soon but will let you know if we can in the future 🟥⬜️🤗🎛
Great playing and tone! Forgive me if someone else has already pointed out, but you've got some pretty massive phasing happening between the left and right channels here, mate.
Are you running the deluxe reverb cranked? When I use my red dot sunface through my 1964 deluxe or my reissue 68 deluxe. The pedal is not really useful at a practice volume. I've only got great tones from a orange amp with gain already cooking. But these are the tones I'm after with the fuzz
Thanks a lot for the question. The amp was on the verge of break up & the EQ settings were pretty flat. Are use and attenuator to help control the volume 🎸🎛
Awesome pedal. I dig the way you bend them stings. 👽
Great playing 🤩
Sounds awesome, great playing as always Chris 🔥

Thanks so much for that. Nice one, agh yes they’re great 🤗🎛

Sweet! I just got a Sunface LG, perfect for my touch and Jimi ripoffs!
In the USA they call those coozies. Beer can coolers that every company uses as promotion
Oh man! That’s awesome ha ha
Pronounced CO-zeeee like a cozey couch
Coozies is something else lmfaoooo

I'm even considering buying another one and paying a local technician to do these mods for me! I need another 400+ pounds now.

great demo and playing but also why so noisy man jesus, I know all about pedal to the medal but you can still try to make it sounds nice
What a great tone! I like playing your guitar very much. What amp are you using in this video?
Thanks so much. I was using a fender deluxe Reverb reissue here 🎛

Welcome
I ordered my Sun Face NKT275 10 years ago for $185.00 USD. I can't believe it's now worth $1,300.00 USD now! Holy shit, who would have known!!

Ok but how do u get that clean sound without the pedal 😯😯 mind telling ur amp settings?

Never have they cost 300 from Analogman barley 200 still today
Except for the nkt transistors which have become extinct
Heavens to Betsy.. what amp is that good sir? Any chance you spill the beans on the pickups?
Thanks so much for the support. I was using a fender deluxe (Reverb) re-issue with Kingtone guitar pickups 💥🎛
@@PedalPawn Sure :) Is that a 65 or 68 Deluxe? I never heard of these Bluebird pickups. Is that a vintage Strat btw?
@@PedalPawn Are you using an attenuator with the 65 Deluxe?

Sad it is so expensive now. I can buy a nice amp for less

£1,000?!?!?! Jeez...it's my favourite fuzz but it's not £1,000's worth. (P.S. No, you can't have it)
The Dunlop fuzz faces are the holy grail of fuzz face distortion 100% Era correct
