Introducing the JHS Legends of Fuzz Series Smiley, a fuzz pedal that perfectly encapsulates the vintage mojo of the 60's, while offering modern tweaks for today's guitarists. This pedal is a faithful rendition of the early silicon fuzz faces, originally popularized by legendary guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix.

Renowned for its aggressive, biting tone, the Smiley captures the distinctive midrange attack and weighty low end that were defining characteristics of the original unit. One of its key features is its simplicity, with just two knobs - Volume and Fuzz - that offer a breadth of tonal possibilities.

The Smiley is not just a one-trick pony; roll back your guitar's volume knob and it transitions from a face-melting fuzz to a crisp, crunchy overdrive. For those who crave a bit more gain, the JHS Mode button unleashes a high-gain boost, grinding out gnarly gated-fuzz effects.

Housed in a custom wedge-shaped bent-metal enclosure, with vintage-style knobs and full-metal badge plate, the Smiley doesn't just sound old-school, it looks the part too. Whether you're a vintage gear aficionado or a modern player seeking classic tones, the JHS Smiley promises to put a smile on your face with its remarkable tonal versatility and vintage appeal.
