5 of 5 Sun Face BC183 (Chapman Stick) December 10, 2018
Reviewer: Kent from Ottawa, Canada  
This fuzz sounds great on the Chapman Stick. I am using it on the melody side. My chain is Analogman BC183, volume pedal, Catalinbread 5F6, Zoom MS-50G (for a touch of reverb or delay), Euphonic Wizzy Combo. A lot of great sounds adjusting the fuzz knob. Nice sustain and cleans up using stick volume knob (or volume pedal used before fuzz). I like this little box.

Not much of a fuzz guy for the bass side of the stick but this does sound cool on the bass side. I believe that mike can mode the pedal to let more bass through if requested (mine is stock).

Actually bought this for my Daughter's setup (see other review); but I will be borrowing this frequently.

Thanks
Mike and staff

5 of 5 BC183 with Sun Dial & On/Off Volume Pot September 19, 2018
Reviewer: Matt from Coral Gables, FL United States  
After reading many reviews and hearing several demos, I wanted to try a Sun Face out and hear for myself what all the fuss was about.

After receiving my BC183 Sun Face in the mail, I replaced my usual fuzz with the Sun Face in my signal chain.  The pedal was already in the "on" position when I clicked the amp off standby and I strummed an open "G" chord (fuzz was at 12:00).  I was immediately struck by how "full" the Sun Face sounded in comparison to my usual silicone fuzz.  Wow.  Just a full, warm, musical sound that made me want to keep playing and playing.  After a few minutes of riffing, I picked my jaw up off the floor and decided to crank the fuzz up a bit more (just a few hairs short of full-clockwise rotation).  Note definition remained tight and clear and an amazingly smooth buzzsaw roar rung out over open chords.  The Sun Dial knob also enabled me to get a very sputtery, EJ-like tone.  Amazing pedal!

5 of 5 Another winner August 26, 2018
Reviewer: Howard Wade from Oak Grove, OR United States  
The Sunface red dot NKT is my fourth Analogman pedal and once again Mike and company have knocked it out of the park. It’s all the things a great fuzz face can be, responsive, smooth, but with plenty of grit. I especially like the input trim potfor dialing in just the right amount of fuzz.

5 of 5 RCA Trannies July 26, 2018
Reviewer: Ben Spinks from Maentwrog, Gwynedd United Kingdom  
Best fuzz I’ve ever owned.  The RCA transistors are the perfect combination of growl and definition.  Couldn’t be happier.

5 of 5 NKT Red Dot May 24, 2018
Reviewer: Ben Lord from Reading, Berkshire United Kingdom  
I've been playing for around 30 years and never owned a fuzz until now. I got a red dot NTK with everything apart from a DC jack

I'm really impressed with this thing, it's almost like a living organism :D The response to the volume control is remarkable, and has prompted me to grab a linear taper vol pot for my Strat for more control near the top of the range.

I can get anything from sparkly verge-of breakup type tones all the way to huge fat verge-of-destruction type tones :)

The next pedal in my chain is a Boss GE-7 and with a little scoop on the EQ I can conjure seething fizzy Muff type tones too.

The LED was needed for me to see what's on and what's not at a glance, but even though batteries last 4x longer without one, they're so cheap I figured it was worth having. I guess I can always wire in a little series switch in the case if I want to take it out of the equation.

Mike, thanks buddy, this is another "pry it from my cold dead hands" type pedal like my Cali76TX.

5 of 5 Fuzz Without Peer: 2N Standard Sun Face April 2, 2018
Reviewer: Aaron Nickell from Aberdeen, WA United States  
Exemplary build and performance: the Sun Face 2N is the best fuzz pedal I have ever played.

It performs well with my AC30, Blues Junior, and 5150. It's thick and creamy with my Les Paul and really shines with my DuoJet. Run the pedal at full fuzz, use your guitar's volume knob, and adjust the Sun Dial bias trimmer to get Gilmour, Neil Young, Melvins, Clapton, Bonamossa, and everything in between.

I enjoy my Sun Face with a 9V battery, though the DC power jack comes in handy for emergencies. The 2N has gain to spare. Bias knob to the left, it sputters like a neglected Chevy; full right, it performs like a thick overdrive. I like it in the middle: it has quite a bit of midrange honk that makes single note runs vocal and far too much fun.

Having a buffer in the same chain detracts from the harmonics, "chewiness," and overall character of the fuzz.

Thanks Mike and team for a world-class fuzz pedal. Will be back for silicon soon.

5 of 5 Sun Face BC 108 March 19, 2018
Reviewer: Seth Affoumado from San Rafael, CA United States  
I kept hearing about this fabulous pedal and had not tried one, until...I finally did and I'm really happy with the true creamy fuzzy tone that cleans up well! It's a killer! Thanks Mike!

5 of 5 Great Fuzz! March 18, 2018
Reviewer: Jakub  
I got red dot NKT and a BC183 sunfaces - they are both excellent in every aspect. Also different enough for me to have both.

I use germanium NKT for less fuzzy tones on the edge of breakup and BC183 one for more aggressive fuzz. They nail classic fuzz tones which i like.

A fuzz pot with built-in on/off switch is a neat addition if you want to put sunface on a pedalboard (difficult to disconnect input to save battery) and still be able to use battery power.

Excellent!
