Ugly Face

This one really is a copywriter's nightmare. How do you describe the indescribable?

From the genius mind of Tim Escobedo, this is a fuzz without boundaries. The original signal destroyer, way before the Fuzz Factory came about.

Squelches, wailing, quacking - all manner of crazy filtering going on, and all of it an absolute joy to play with. You're unlikely to base your song's main hook around it, but oh my - when you kick it in...

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components (depending on selected options), pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.
