Does anyone have an idea what fuzz box was used for the recording of this track ?

Please help to ID this fuzz tone.

It was a homemade fuzz:

“I played a Fender Telecaster through a Fender tube amp. A friend custom
built the fuzz box, just a small something or other, into the body of the guitar with a switch. I didn't slit the speakers. I fingerpicked and used lots of reverb.
There really wasn't much else done in the mix.”

That was always one of my favorite fuzz sounds.

It sounds like a Jordan Bosstone fuzz. When I started playing guitar a friend had one and a Jordan amp.

The Electro Harmonix Satisfaction is a Jordan Bosstone clone with the clipping diodes removed.

EHX leaves the pads empty for you to mod it yourself.

Ah... fuzz...

I really need to invest in a fuzz; every time I hear one, I feel that I *need* one;
And that my life would have been a better life, if I had used a fuzz for all my living years .

I want the EHX "Octavix"- i just saw one used for cheap;
but right then I didn't have the money.

Fuzz on!

Is there anything on-line that provides sound samples for mods? I'm interested in experimenting with different capacitor values, and diode combos....
