FUZZ- HAGERMAN Tsar Face ____NEW____ exceptional germanium Fuzz :-)

HAGERMAN:TSAR FACE 
$160.00 USD
From his home in Hawaii ol' Jim brought us a new pedal. Those that follow the many Posts of his product know that all his pedals are creative, total overkill in their build and are priced unusually cheap for a handmade high end product. Hagerman are talked about in the esoteric HiFi world in hushed tones. In consumer Stereo world his products have the status of a Ferrari.
The unit is based from MP41A transistors both rare and pricey. Jim scooped them up from a blowout deal so we get the benefit of both the sound and a Fuzz that would usually cost much more. 
It is a low gain Fuzz. Think of instant 'The Wind Cries Mary' Hendrix clean tones.
The layout is level, tone, BIAS and sag. Jim came up with a stabilization circuit to minimize the problems with heat, and dropouts. The dynamics control its timing so you get a transformer like sag effect which cause the notes to bloom after your initial attack. Finally the tone itself is buffered so it gives you a wide range of useful settings. 
CONCLUSION
Just check the video. The pedal sells itself.
