The SolidGoldFX If 6 Was 9 pedal is the company’s take on the late-’60s/early-’70s Fuzz Face. It uses a pair of new-old-stock BC183 transistors the company says produce a rich, smooth fuzz with excellent sustain and volume clean-up. Vintage-spec carbon-comp resistors enhance the warmth of the core circuit while an external Bias control and a tailored two-way Tone switch increase versatility. Look for more at www.solidgoldfx.com.
