Jimi Hendrix™ Fuzz Face® Distortion Info

Hendrix was the master of fuzz, an artist with many subtle shadings at his command. His love affair with the legendary Fuzz Face pedal began in the early days of the Experience and continued to evolve throughout his brief but blazing career. The Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face is a meticulously faithful reproduction of the 1969-70 Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face that Jimi used on classic albums like Band of Gypsys. Dunlop's engineering department examined hoards of vintage Fuzz Faces, honing in on a few units which possessed that unmistakable Jimi voodoo. The Hendrix Fuzz Face is built around the toneful BC108 silicon transistor. It is authentic in every detail, a handwired brown circuit board with no solder mask and circuitry carefully matched to the original specs. The look is 100% accurate too, that groovy circular chassis with tooled clones of the original Fuzz Face knobs in the rare and vintage turquoise hammertone finish. A truly playable collectable for any Hendrix or Fuzz Face fanatic.

Power: Single 9 volt battery.

The Jimi Hendrix™ Fuzz Face® Distortion FAQs

Q: Can I power my pedal with a different voltage?

A: All Dunlop/MXR pedals should only be powered with the recommended voltage.

Q: Does my pedal have a true bypass?

A: Please refer to our 'True Bypass' article on our Dunlop Blog for an up-to-date list of our pedals which contain true bypass.

Q: My pedal works in bypass, but there is no signal when it’s turned on.

A: Check to ensure that your adapter or battery have the correct voltage and/or polarity. Ensure that both cables are plugged into the correct input/output jacks.

Q: Why is there a volume drop/boost when I turn on my pedal?

A: There is a possible impedance mismatch with other pedals in your effects loop. Isolate and remove the pedal from the loop to see if this still occurs.

Q: Can you repair my vintage pedal?

A: It depends on which pedal and how it has failed. Please contact our Technical Support Department as this is a case by case matter.

Q: Can I adjust the internal trim pots?

A: Not unless it is stated in the User Manual.

Q: Can I purchase an empty pedal housing?

A: Unfortunately, we do not sell our raw pedal housings.

Q: My pedal may not be working correctly. What should I do?

A: First, check the brand’s FAQ page (MXR, Way Huge, etc.) to see if the issue has already been addressed there.
