Hi,
I found this board in hopes of answering some questions I had about a Fuzz Face I purchased back in the late 80's. I purchased it new from a small mom and pop shop in Chicago; but, I do not know exactly when it was manufactured. I was hoping someone here could help me with the Fuzz Faces date of manufacture (or close), as well as what it may be worth? I appreciate any help or comments.
Thanks in advance!

That's a Crest Audio version from the late 80's.
It's worth what ever someone will pay which is probably around $100-$200 for some.

Yup. I think the low end for one of those is around $125, assuming it works.
Here's the run down from the guy himself:
