The Wren and Cuff 70s Your Face: 70s Silicon that's Smooth as F**k
From Wren and Cuff: "With the edge of a tight silicon fuzz, and some custom filtering to warm it all up, The Your Face 70's is all that's loved about the 70's Fuzz Faces, with some added tweaks to smooth things over.
We take two hand-matched BC108 silicon transistors selected for specific gains, super-quiet metal film resistors, and add smoothing capacitors to tame spiky highs and eliminate squealing at higher volumes, and that's only the start.
Don't like the low output on a traditional FF? Fixed it. All the volume you could ever want or need.
Don't like the way that a traditional FF fuzz knob is only useful at the last end of the knob? We've added a reverse-log potentiometer that widens that range and let's you dial things in just right.
Mullard “tropical fish” out-cap with increased value to allow more lows to come through. Also, Mullard tropical fish caps just look damn cool.
Custom “You” knob functions as a low-cut to reduce some of the low-end squash, letting you dial things in just right for "you". This is a simple but fantastic mod that gives an incredible amount of versatility. I've seen this mod alone turn FF haters into instant fans.
Truly an ultra-smooth high-gain silicon 70’s style fuzzer with all the right tweaks."

The Wren and Cuff Your Face Smooth Silicon 70's Fuzz brings the balanced sound of a certain iconic red pedal and adds a few new tweaks to make the sound even better. Starting off with a pair of hand-matched BC108 transistors, supremely quiet metal film transistors, and smoothing capacitors for taming those pesky high spikes, all the pieces are in place to capture throwback fuzzy tone. Not content to stop there, the Smooth Silicon employs a reverse-log fuzz potentiometer for finely sculpting the fuzz in your signal and a modification for higher output to give you complete control over vintage tone.
