Analog Man Astro Tone Fuzz - Black Finish version

The Analog Man ASTRO TONE fuzz is somewhere between a fuzz and distortion as it acts differently into different amps. But it sounds great into almost anything! The Astro Tone is MUCH easier to use than a Fuzz Face and you can hear it well with a band.
Analog Man's first new pedal of 2010 (!?!??)is the ASTRO TONE fuzz. This pedal is based on the 1960's SAM ASH FUZZZ BOXX and ASTROTONE FUZZ made in New York City in 1966-68 by the Astro Amp company.

Features:
True Bypass switching
Super Bright LED for lower power use, buffed so as not to blind you!
Uses less than 1 mA of power when off, only 3 when on, so an Alkaline bat tery will last a few hundred hours of normal playing time.
Three simple knobs - Volume, Fuzz, and Tone.
High quality, hand wired RE�AN input and output jacks.
In and Out jacks on top for best pedalboard real estate management

Normal Boss style power jack, on the right side, negative ground so no polarity problems
original 1966 Fairchild Silicon transistors, not affected by heat like a Germanium fuzz.
Sound is not as compressed as a fuzzface, not SUPER thick and saturated, something between a fuzz and distortion but closer to a fuzz
