Here's another couple of cool old fuzzes
Univox Uni-Fuzz -- this is a Superfuzz but with a built-in power supply instead of a battery

This is a 1966 Sam Ash branded Astrotone fuzz (Fuzzz Boxx) -- Tommy Bolin's favourite fuzz

and a couple of Foxey Ladies
This is a Mosrite Fuzzrite inside with the little Sprague module, from 1968


This one's an EHX, pre-Axis fuzz

Not really. They got Semie Mosely to build Fuzzrites for them under an OEM deal, rebranded with the Guild name, but the first Foxey Ladies were Ed Sanner
Fuzzrites in a different box. When Mosrite went tits up, Mike Matthews picked up the contract and produced a similar fuzz circuit designed by a guy named Bill Berko -- this is prior to EHX. The first EHX Axis fuzz was just one of these Foxey Ladies re-rebranded as an EHX Axis fuzz. There's a bit of overlap and there are Guild-branded triangle and Ram's head Big Muffs too, but I don't have any of those (yet).
Don't you love all the not so subtle Hendrix references?

I just remembered that the Mellowtone pedal is called the
Singing Tree, I thought Eric had ripped off EHX or something.
