FUZZ- DANELECTRO NICHOLS 1966 Fuzz ___NEW ___ we re-visit

$200.00 USD
 DANELECTRO 
NICHOLS 1966 
On Jan 24 all I found was video without any price or info, nor a pic of this Fuzz. So know we have the full story.
In 1966 a 14 year old boy called Steve cobbled together his own Fuzz. 
He decided to make more and sell them at school. By the time he left school he had made 300.  When he left school he thought he would start a pedal company. Foxxtone. After awhile he found you are not only selling pedals but a 'brand' so since Dano was out of biz he bought the Danelectro name at a fire sale price. Once he had his pedals made he went to NAMM where they were very successful. Everyone one asked "Where are the guitars?" He was convinced. Within 2 years the guitars followed. 
The layout has the usual Gain, Volume and tone, but a second clean boost is at the output. 
CONCLUSION ___
It is not only it's own thing but sounds so. 
It has fat very chunky but dense sound. 
Even nasty. Nice!!!
