Mud with Germanium Fuzzfaces...

Re: Mud with Germanium Fuzzfaces...

An update...

I found out that mine is a white dot NKT275. Regular gain or high? Well, I dunno. And in fact I don't care. Yet, mine seems to have tonsa gain when I compare it to the youtube demos and all... Yet, I generally use my amp a bit dirty, am not a "clean" amp kinda person. So I am not fully certain...

I have backed off the white trim pot a bit. And it helped. It was maxed. It sounds great. It cleans up phenomenally... Here is an example on a backtrack (one of Guitar Center's jams):



My 90 strat (van Zandt Vintage+'s) and 98 Blues Jr. with a Celestion G12H30 (and 5751 JAN Phillips in v1 and JAN Phillips 12AT7 in v3)...

And today, after work, I could not resist and recorded on two Guitar Center backtracks (love them, here is the link if you are interested) again with my strat and Blues Jr. and Analogman Sun Face (white dot).

The first, I think, is also showing that it is cleaning up phenomenally... It is done with the bridge/middle and bridge position...



The next one is done with the neck position of my strat... I intentionally aimed for a thick tone (with smooth pick attack).

Thanks! :)

That trimpot definitely helped... Now the tone even in the neck, I think, is just fine. And I did not lose that much gain (due to that trimmer shaving off some of the input signal).
