    Frequently Bought Together

    Ever played an original FuzzFace from around 1970? (HINT: Not AT ALL the same sound as ones with the same namesake being mass-produced currently.) Fulltone’s has two intentionally mismatched (for harmonic content) silicon transistors that snarl and spit... not for the meek! If you put the "Fuzz" on 10 you will rip, and you might get all sorts of oscillation and weirdness... but that's Rock. Don't try using it with a wah wah... you can't, and neither could Jimi, without it screaming and howling. You want polite and quiet? Go elsewhere. You want art in a box? Come on in.

     

    Housed in a 16 gauge steel box and powder coated deep blue, this pedal is a bit unruly but with some warmth... ideal for older 4 input Marshall amps, it has much more FUZZ than the '69 Pedal and includes a Mid control for extra clarity and cut.

     

    Fulltone got their hands on Eric Johnson's Blue Fuzzface that he used from Tones through Ah Via Musicom period (now owned by Ian Moore) and incorporated a few of its tonal secrets into the '70 pedal with staggering sonic results!

     

    Fulltone 70BC Fuzz Pedal Features:

    • True blue vintage Fuzz Face tones
    • 2 intentionally mismatched silicon transistors for snarl & spit
    • Mid control for extra clarity and cut
    • "Sweet-Spot" where the notes want get soaring sustain
    • Gain mostly engaged after 3 o'clock on the Gain knob
    • Internal BIAS Trimmer for soft/compressed tones or loud, full low end

     

    VOLUME knob: This controls the overall volume level when the pedal is turned ON.

     

    MIDS knob: As you turn this knob Clockwise (CW) Midrange and gain is added…I like this knob somewhere around 12’oclock. The Mids knob allows you to fine-tune to your guitar/amp configuration and cut through in a live band situation, something the original Fuzzface cannot do. You'll find a "sweet-spot" where the notes want to sustain.. stock Fuzzface sounds are located with this “Mid” knob Fully counter-clockwise. (CCW)

     

    FUZZ knob: Turning this CW increases the amount of distortion and sustain. Like the original Fuzzface, nothing much happens until this knob gets to about 3 o’clock, and most of the gain comes on at the very end of the CW motion.

     

    NOTE: there may be some crackling noises while turning the “Mid” and “Gain” Pots...this is normal so don’t worry.

     

    Internal BIAS Trimmer: There’s an internal trimmer (pre-set by Fulltone) that affects the pedal’s response and varies the feel from soft to firm, as well as overall compression and transient response...feel free to experiment with this trimmer as there is no right or wrong.

    • Turn Clockwise to soften and compress more
    • Turn CCW to increase loudness, quicken tracking, and increase bottom end.

     

    Power & Battery: This pedal is fitted with a DC jack (2.1 mm shaft) for use with a power supply (not included, but we recommend our FPS-1) Always use a “regulated” power supply with Negative (-) to center pin…you may use any DC voltage from 5 to 18 volts, although 9 volts DC is the standard.
