A Fuzz Face variant made with a pair of AC128 germanium PNP transistors that I pulled from an old record player. This was built in 1996, when I was 18, after a friend and I built a Fuzz Face on a breadboard. We tweaked it to get more mids and volume. This is the result.
The best part is, I took this photo without my contacts in with a manual focus lens :cD
Sheer luck I guess.

Big Fuzz in the newest member to our little family… and he sure fits in well! This cat sleeps in the weirdest positions – such as the face plant above. He’s pretty crazy in general and a huge attention whore. The funny thing is, he is the exact same color as our cat Sweets… just much fuzzier. I believe he is a ragdoll Siamese.
The Fool Audio Research Infinite Fuzz. It's a Fuzz Face clone with sockets so you can switch from Germanium to Silicon transistors.
Here are the transistors from this first one. The Silicon pair are 2N3799 transistors (the pair on the right). Q1 is 159 hFE and Q2 is 227 hFE. Q1 is identified with a black dot on top of its metal encapsulation. The Germanium transistors are a recent-production AC128 (all the way on the left) in Q1 and a vintage 2N527 (to the right of the AC128) in Q2. The AC128 is 72 hFE and the 2N527 is 126 hFE.
