Members Hiwatt Bob Posted January 22, 2012 Members Share Posted January 22, 2012 got this off of StopRefrencing. it's a '98 with the spam can trannies. this sounds like i always wanted my '04 FF to sound--good low end & not harsh on the treble. the toan is hard to describe because the pedal has a certain je ne sais quoi. anyhow, it's dohp as fuck. having good low end and no harshness actually makes this pedal usable for normal/conventional fuzz sounds--which was always my beef with my '04.

Members PKTrono Posted January 22, 2012 Members Share Posted January 22, 2012 what are spam can trannies? early fuzz factory models had them and they're supposed to sound even better.if you're asking about the transistors more specifically, i don't know. someone else knows more i'm sure.

Members Hiwatt Bob Posted January 22, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2012 what are spam can trannies? Don't know. The only info I've found is that Vex bought the remaining stock of some trannies that were specially made for some MN company. I guess there were only a hundred or so and he was unable to find any more. Would actually like to know more myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John F Posted January 22, 2012 Members Share Posted January 22, 2012 That's my favorite pedal! The early ones with skinny/ tall transistors sound good as well. They sound similar to the spam can. You can hear it in the original zvex demo. The fuzz cuts through, but isn't harsh. Congrats... I almost bought that one as well.

Members V Posted January 22, 2012 Members Share Posted January 22, 2012 I finally got to play a Fuzz Factory (not sure of the transistors) not that long ago and I was pleasantly surprised. Sounded kinda similar to the Silver Apple, which surprised me because the two aren't incredibly similar. I also found it smooth and nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, my '00 fuzz probe has those trannies and it's similar in toan--smoother, softer, more low end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
