"Made in Bakersfield, California ca.1969-70, ...
Designed by Ed Sanner of Mosrite, who was previously responsible for the ornery yet iconic Fuzzrite. Mosrite went under around 1969 and Rosac emerged from the ashes. There was a Nu Wa and a Nu Fuzz as well. This model simply combined the two circuits. It has two batteries, as they simply transplanted two individually gooped 9v “modules”, one from the Nu Fuzz, one from the Nu Wa, into one housing. They are the pink rectangles in the photos. If something goes wrong, one is in trouble, but this example is still operational.
The silicon fuzz circuit apparently differs from the earlier Fuzzrite by having a tone control replacing the balance (fuzz) control. The tone control is very effective, seemingly padding out the low end on the bassier settings and getting more typical Fuzzrite treble unpleasantness when turned up. With the wah also boosting treble, there are lots of options - just don’t expect the wah to “quack” so much. The Wa circuit has no inductor, so is necessarily fairly low key. The company more or less admits this by pimping it as a treble booster in the instructions."
Up for your buying pleasure today is very very cool and very obscure 1960's Solid State guitar amp. I can't get over how cool this baby is. It can be play anything from mellow jazz to high octane stones-y blues. When you crank it to about 9 and above, the breakup is impossible to describe. It's relatively lightweight and even at it's highest volume doesn't reach anything ear ache inducing. That said, unless you are doing a solo thing at a coffee-shop or have a good PA system to mike it up to, I wouldn't recommend this for anything other than basement jamming or recording. There is a bit of buzz as the volume increases but that comes with the low-fi SS quality of the time. It's close to 13 in by 13 give or take with a vintage Zenith 12" speaker. The red light on the front doesn't work and will need replacing if that's something you really care about.You can see in the second picture that on the right side of the amp the vinyl is torn and the wood is slightly cracked. Overall this guy is structurally sound.
These and countless other super-obscure brands came and went in the immediate wake of Beatle-mania swept the nation and inspired thousands of future rock and rollers to pick up the Japanese made budget instruments and get to learning the chords to "Louie, Louie," and "Roll Over Beethoven!"
Missing the volume knob, but I shall include a small bag of vintage volume knobs from a few old stereos I used to have. all 3 inputs work fine, so theoretically you could play bass with it, but I don't know how that would sound. It could be amazing!
All in all, while it is a bit beaten up and buzzes a tad bit, it's full of character and just oozes vintage vibes for a whole lot less than a modern repro of similar style would cost yah!
Why by a crappy little 80's peavey when you can have an awesome piece of rock and roll history!
