Transistors we no longer have
In July, 2002 we started offering a NOS NKT-275 version of the Sun Face, using New Old Stock British Newmarket 1960s NKT-275 transistors. These were the actual transistors used in the original $expensive germanium Fuzz Face, not the skinny copies or the normal size US production "G" logo used in more recent fuzzfaces since the 1990s (which look and sound totally different). You can take a peek into one of our NKT-loaded pedals on the left. It also includes an additional BIAS trim pot inside to set the exact bias on these transistors, for the ultimate sound. The Blue trim pot is for Bias, which should not need adjustment often, while the big White one is the CLEAN (input adjustment) knob. The BIAS pot really helps if you play at different temperatures. You can turn it down a bit at higher temperatures, and up a bit at lower temperatures, to keep the transistors happy and sounding best at their SWEET SPOT which is about 5 volts. The Sunface manual has more information on adjusting this. The bias control is often found on the outside of our Sunface pedals as the SUN DIAL knob.
The sound of these original NKT275 transistors was quite similar to the other types of germanium transistors that we use. But the NKT275s have less fuzz, and less high end fizziness. They have a deeper tone and clean up better than most transistors. If you turn down the volume on your guitar, the NKT275 sound will be totally, sparkly clean without any fuzz remnants. Normally, NKT275 transistors are not high gain, that is why they clean up so well and are so smooth sounding. However we did have some high gain NKTs sorted out of the same batch.
We sold out our first batch of original NKT-275 transistors with red dots (totally authentic, came in little "cigarette packs" as seen above, and on top of this picture) in just a few months, but found another type. These early 1970s "white dot" NKT275s are the same size but don't look exactly the same. They have less (almost no!) leakage, and sound a little brighter, with better high end definition. They are from a military supplier in the UK and were tested to a NATO spec. These have white dots instead of red dots, signifying the military spec. They are not the skinny reproduction NKTs with the rim, or the "G" logo recent USA made transistors from Germanium Product Devices which used in new fuzzfaces and in some other fuzzface clones. When I retested them here, 95% of them worked perfectly unlike the last batch which was about 25% dead. The SUNFACE reviewed by Guitar Player magazine had the older red dot NKT275, while the one reviewed by TONEQUEST magazine had the white dots ones. We ran out of the white dot NKTs in 2011 and are saving some just for repairs. We doubt we will be able to get more in, as all the ones we have gotten in the last decade were fake parts that were relabeled, or that others had already tested and rejected, so we never used them.
