Pigdog Fuzz 1.5

Information

Pigdog

The photos should tell you everything you need to know. I make no comprimises in the parts used.

1960's NOS dark vero board, Wima, Sprague, Philips capacitors, Piher resistors, Cliff jacks, Carling switch. 100% hand made here by me in Surrey, London.

Professionally finished in white gloss powdercoat and then screen printed with black script.

Cool mid-1960's fuzz tone. Great for chords, plenty of sustain for solo's and cleans up well too. Slightly hotter than an OC75 version, but the same sound is there to be had.
