Analog Man Sun Face

02/27/2026

Here is a demo of the recently introduced RT-201 silicon Sun Face, from Little Barrie in the UK, who I met when he was playing with The Black Keys.
The pedal is on all the time, he is just adjusting the guitar‘s volume k**b to get various shades of fuzz. 

This is a SunFace with the RT-201 Silicon transistors.These transistors were made by General Electric in 1966 or 1976, in a small high quality metal can. The...

this is a low gain germanium based on a Dunlop JB artist pedal which is no longer available. people have been asking about this so I finally put some together and I think they came out great. You can find them on the buyanalogman website we have some ready to ship with sundial, power jack, and LED.

We have some new transistor options:

NPN GERMANIUM British CV : We had some of these NOS transistors from 1976 in our stash, and saw that a British pedal builder who 's work I like was using them in a popular, expensive fuzz, so we finally tried them. The main benefit they have is normal polarity so you can use a daisy chain, though I still recommend isolated power. These sound similar to the RCA, nice brightness and decent cleanup, which gets bright and British sounding. The gain is pretty high, so best to use a touch of the CLEAN trimpot unless you want the full fuzz sound.

"new" RCA : made in 1967, same sound as the ones we have been using but don't have the temperature stability. Fairly high gain.
