Description

Crafted with a discerning ear for detail, the Dunlop Limited Hybrid Fuzz Face offers a sonic exploration like no other. This is no ordinary fuzz pedal; it's a harmonious fusion of germanium and silicon transistors that brings together the best of both worlds. Developed in collaboration with the mastermind Jeorge Tripps, this pedal is a tribute to Dunlop's storied legacy and a nod to the artistry of tone.

At its heart, the Hybrid Fuzz Face combines the warmth and character of a Russian GT308B germanium transistor with the reliability and punch of an American 2N5087 silicon transistor. The result? A cascading fuzz experience that delivers rich, textured tones, from warm and smooth to gritty and aggressive. This blend allows guitarists to dial in an array of sounds, making it versatile enough for any musical style.

Each unit is meticulously hand-wired in Jeorge Tripps’ LA-based tone laboratory, ensuring that every component is perfectly matched for optimal performance. With only 10 units ever produced, this pedal is not just an effect—it's a piece of musical history.
