DISC Dunlop FFM6 Jimi Hendrix Band Of Gypsys Fuzz Chrome Ltd Ed

Full Description

During the period between '69-'70, Jimi Hendrix appeared at his most noted live appearances?Live at Woodstock, Live at Berkeley, and Live at the Fillmore East?using a mysterious red Fuzz Face Distortion with white knobs. That fuzz box sounded completely different from any of the other Fuzz Face pedals in Jimi?s arsenal, snarling with a far more aggressive, biting tone.

The pedal itself has been lost to history, but its unmistakable tone lives on in the recordings of those three iconic shows, and Hendrix fans have tried to copy that sound for years. We are happy to say that this quest can finally come to an end.

Pouring tirelessly over all of the different customised circuit designs Jimi used over the years, Jim Dunlop engineers have narrowed down this elusive fuzz tone to a version of the Octavio® circuit that didn't have the octave up signal. After making a few tweaks, they've nailed it with the Band of Gypsys Fuzz Face Mini Distortion.

Now, you can get the same Fuzz Face tone Jimi used to woo the masses at some of his most famous performances. It comes in a pedalboard-friendly Fuzz Face Mini housing, complete with an AC power jack and an on/off status LED.
