I had one of those when I was 7 or 8 in 1963.....................
The mid to late 60s was the golden age of fuzz. Collectors of garage band records from that era love that nasty, snarling fuzz sound.
Examples: The Pandas-Walk (1966)

Guitar people are actively seeking out vintage germanium transistors for new fuzz-face builds, and are paying good money for them.
Really? Off to root out my old stock of them.
I made a comment earlier about transistors and fuzz pedals. Glad to see that there are some guitar players on Free Republic! Most musicians I know are libtards; fortunately a few of us are actually conservative.
I play gigs in Ann Arbor sometimes. Gotta keep my politics on the DL there— most people there are radical leftists.
BTW, if any of you want to hear some of what I do, search for Soundcloud Rick Jacobi.
21st Century sounds like Pink Floyd meets Talking Heads!..................
I’ve listened to about half the tracks and they all sound great!
Definitely commercial value......................
