Anyone see/hear/own a Sunn 'Buzz' distortion device? I remember seeing them in old catalogs.

Hello:
  Yep, I still have a couple of those things. They alway sounded terrible to my ear but then cheezy is what people want nowadays. I used to modify them so they became a practice amp that you could plug headphones into. This was in the 70's when headphones amps were unheard of.

Sounds like an interesting pedal, says that they used 3 transistors compared to the fuzz face 2.  Did they run on 9 volts or a AA like the Maestro fuzz?

I have an old Sunn Buzz fuzz tone.  It uses one AA battery.
