EFFECTS PEDALS
RFB1 - 1960’s Limited Edition Fuzz Pedal Reissue
A faithful reproduction of our original 1960’s unit using the same circuit
configuration as the original design, combined with modern resistors,
capacitors and original germanium diodes. The new pedal combines
yesterday’s mojo and tone flavour with the reliability and stability of
today’s technology. The original prototype pedals were only ever
available in limited numbers and never released for general sales.
Nonetheless these pedals were found all over the place - there is even
a picture of Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page playing one. This is the only
original Rotosound fuzz pedal of the era and should not be confused
with the lesser cheaper copies currently available.

Meet Your Maker - Dr Barry Pyatt
A fabled bespoke, guitar ‘tone-tweaker’ as far back as the late 1960’s, Barry started out working as an electronic engineering
apprentice for The Ministry of Aviation. In the evenings, he sung, and played guitar or piano in several local bands, or ‘groups’ as
they were called then - the Ministry paid the princely sum of £3 10s 6d a week (before tax!) - the bands paid about £15 a week.
In addition, a love affair with moving images found Barry joining The BBC Designs Department in the early 1970’s but the lure of
live performance found him soon living and performing in all four corners of Europe. He continued to develop innovative
electronically products and found himself the ‘non-resident electronics consultant’ for a number of companies. Today, when he is
not designing bespoke pedals for Rotosound he runs his own film making company - Angel Films.

Meet Your Maker - John Oram
John is approaching his 50th year at the forefront of electronics engineering. With an impeccable pedigree in the development
of some of the most important sound equipment ever to come out of the UK, he joined VOX in 1964 as Student Apprentice and
found himself working with the legendary Dick Denney, designer of the VOX AC30 as well as other members the classic VOX
Team. He left VOX in 1968 when Tom Jennings formed Jennings Electronic Developments holding the position of Chief
Engineer. John worked with James How and Rotosound on various projects manufactured by Jennings, which in turn were
marketed and sold by Rotosound. As well as continuing his long association with Rotosound, John is now Chairman and
Managing Director of ORAM PRO AUDIO and The Analogue Barn Audio & Video Recording Studios.
