DUNLOP Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face (Video Demo)

[JacksGearDemos]

Hey guys, just joined the forum and I currently only have 1 fuzz pedal. I got this silicone transistor Dunlop Fuzz Face a few years back and it's always given me the most epic feedback swells. It's design is based off the Arbiter Fuzz Jimi Hendrix famously used back in the late 60s. Very simple with only 2 knobs, but man does it ever purr. Made a video demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YVA__E3LvY

Well, it's a pedal…


and it's a fuzz pedal…


and it's a start.

Demo sounded pretty good & I dig that 335 copy.

Welcome.

Great demo, I was kind of surprised how good I thought that sounded

Thanks dude. It's a 1984 Yamaha SA800. Got it off Kijiji for $400 canadian, I love the thing!

Thanks man. My set-up is real simple-

I either use a VOX AC30 or VOX Night Train 15W
Then I put the microphone (Shure SM57) facing dead-center, about 1mm away.
The mic runs into a shitty $99 USB interface called the "Steinberg CI1" which goes into a program called Sequel LE2. Then I leave the audio center, no effects.

I've done a lot of ghetto 1-mic recording in the past and I used to really struggle to get the sound I want. Kinda silly in retrospect how easy it was now that I demo pedals haha

Is the strat really orange? Or red skewed by the video? Cause now I want an orange strat.

Good demo. I had a Hendrix Mini FF that I just sold off. One of those occasions where I wish I didn't have to sell a piece of gear to afford another one. I was sad to see it go.

I picked one of them up for cheap a few years ago and its been my main fuzz ever since. Does what it does well and I wont cry if it goes missing.
