Great Eastern FX Focus Fuzz *Silicon*

Not sure how long this has been out for? The original Focus Fuzz featured two silicon transistors and one germanium. This version replaces the germanium with all silicon.

I don’t have a schematic or gut shot or anything useful tbh. Don’t know how different it actually is from the original but I often find germanium to be more picky/touchy/etc and silicon is a bit less intimidating. Might be a cool addition.

Product page, etc.

The MP38 in the germanium version had an hFE of 79. I’ve seen 2N3903s come in under 100, and 2N2222s under 200, so I’m gonna guess one of those are the new subs in the Silicon Focus, they’re good jellybean low-gain NPNs
