Features
Authentic germanium fuzz voice
Styled after the legendary original, this Mini Germanium model serves up the smooth, warm saturation and blooming sustain players associate with vintage recordings. It responds beautifully to pick dynamics and guitar volume changes, moving from chiming edge-of-breakup textures to thick, singing leads without losing clarity. The result is a classic, expressive fuzz that feels alive under the fingers.
Pedalboard friendly enclosure
The shrunken round housing makes it easy to claim a spot on modern pedalboards while keeping the unmistakable Fuzz Face look. It slips neatly into tight layouts and travel rigs, so you can take vintage tone to rehearsals, studio sessions and gigs without rethinking your whole signal chain.
Player focused updates
True bypass switching keeps your core sound intact when the pedal is off, while the simple two knob layout means you can dial in a great tone quickly. A standard 9V DC power input adds modern convenience alongside battery operation, so you can power it your way on stage, at home or in the classroom.
Musical clean up and dynamics
One of the joys of this circuit is how it cleans up when you lower your guitar volume. Chords open up, picking nuances shine and you can live on the edge of breakup, kicking into full fuzz only when needed. It encourages a more expressive approach and rewards players who work their right hand and volume control.
