Round Fuzz - Silicon

Round Fuzz - Silicon

The Arbiter Electronics Ltd Fuzz Face (Silicon) is a classic fuzz pedal known for its round enclosure and distinctive, saturated distortion. Introduced in the late 1960s as a successor to the original germanium version, the silicon Fuzz Face offers increased stability, brighter tone, and more aggressive fuzz. It is highly responsive to guitar volume changes and playing dynamics, making it a favorite among players seeking vintage-inspired, expressive fuzz tones.
