SSH International Guitar Fuzz and Filter E-1

Extremely rare high-quality Swiss SSH E-1 vintage Fuzz/Wah/Filter pedal, for sale in excellent working order.

[demo coming soon!]

A great wah/auto filter and rich, thick fuzz. Lots of tones and timbres possible – plenty of tone-shaping options – the wah/filter section capable of a wide variety of very nice wah tones. According to the base it’s 100-240v operation. Looks to have had one footswitch changed. There is some volume drop when middle switch (filter section) engaged on certain settings, probably as a result of the filter – still very usable.

Made by SSH International a division of FM Acoustics, Switzerland, it dates from the mid-70s and is ultra, ultra rare – very little info anywhere.

Sounds incredible and not quite like anything else we’ve had through.

Serviced and in excellent working order – no crackly pots or noisy switch issues – sounds incredible.

The condition is good. It has some signs of age – a few dings and some minor oxidation. See the photos for more information.

(Please note: it is always possible with vintage equipment that some crackly pots/sliders may develop over time when equipment has not been used – even during shipping – this can usually be easily rectified either by use or with a bit of switch-cleaning spray)
