JAM Pedals Black Fuzz Phrase LTD Germanium Fuzz Effect Pedal

There's some things that just won't quit – some fuzzy, fuzzy things – namely, the JAM Pedals Black Fuzz Phrase LTD! The Fuzz Phrase, one of JAM's most beloved circuits, normally assembles with BC107 silicon transistors to create piercing, sustaining, fuzz fires just like mom used to make. Today's very limited Black Fuzz Phrase stakes a new claim with germanium NOS OC44 Philips black glass transistors for a sound aggressive, articulate, and oh so authentic.

Only ever delivered in limited batches, the JAM Pedals Black Fuzz Phrase is truly a labor of love and – no surprise – a coveted collector's item. This fuzzy, fuzzy pedal makes itself known with its ultra-rare, ultra-limited NOS OC44 Philips black glass transistors. Manufactured in 1969 and tested individually and matched by ear, these original transistors are made for a burning, mean, lean fuzz sound like your favorite late-'60s, early-'70s guitar wizards.

The Black Fuzz Phrase LTD is carefully hand-assembled with point-to-point hand-wiring on a turret board and wrapped in a charming black suede. What's more, vintage spec carbon resistors and tropical fish capacitors are found throughout the signal path for striking control with its effortless two-dial control setup. True bypass switching keeps playing and switching clean while a standard nine-volt isolated power supply brings the effect to life, no problem.

A great opportunity to take part in the journey these transistors have already taken, this limited Black Fuzz Phrase is a fuzz worth fightin' for.
