The Rotosound RFB1 is a hand-wired, Germanium-powered fuzz reissue of one of the most elusive and revered British pedals of the 1960s. Originally developed in 1967 alongside Solasound’s legendary Tone Bender circuit, the RFB1 delivers a thick, harmonically rich fuzz with that unmistakable vintage character—raw, sustaining, and totally addictive.

This limited-edition reissue faithfully revives the original circuit using NOS Germanium transistors, premium components, and classic styling. The original prototype pedals were never released for general sale, yet became staples of the era’s most influential players—including Jimmy Page, who was famously photographed using one.

This is the only original Rotosound fuzz pedal of the era to ever be reissued, making it both a collector’s piece and a serious tool for players chasing historic British fuzz tone.

Historical Note:
