Vintage Guitars with built in fuzz

[psycho*daisies]

I'm gonna build a box with the fuzz and trem together. Love that sound...

That's the guy from The Routes, a group based in Japan.
Here's an original tune, features the same Starstream VI
He does a lot of Back From The Grave covers...
Good guitarist with a pretty sick collection of geetars. (Vtg Rick, Vox, Mosrite, Gibson/Epi etc)

looks like he used the 335 for rhythm and the Vox for the solo.
The changes of 'outfits' (clothes) is pretty funny, esp the drummer...

They are looking for a bass player...

The wah portion of that guitar seems a bit busted. Check this one out:

cool guitar, seller is knucklehead as a musician...sitting thru his "music" demo....

speaking of guitars with built in fuzz...it dawned on me yesterday when i listened to this tune
for the umpteenth time on my way to work...(great "zombies-going-to-work-at-the-crack-of-dawn soundtrack")

This recording may feature such a beast. Note the choppy Vox Repeater type sound and nasty fuzz @ 00:57 & 02:08
I always thought it was a Maestro Fuzz, but maybe not... (and the year's about right)

Out of curiosity, is anyone else jumping on this Creepyfingers build? Surely, I'm not the only one that NEEDS a si-fuzz/repeat percussion pedal, right?

The repeat percussion "hummingbird" has fascinated me for a long while...

I have been thinking about it. I just can't stop spending my money on amps and a few lists I've been on have come in so...I may have to wait it out a bit. Let me know how you like it.

Whoa interesting. The fuzz is basically a Electro Harmonix linear power booster with diode clipping at the end.

wow no way, that is interesting.
I usually build the VRP with a LPB-1 boost at the end anyway for a bit of extra output,
so all I need is 2 extra diodes for teh fuzz!
cheers for the info brad!
