ahhh gotta love those vintage pedals!

I got a FOXX fuzz wha&volume  at a flea market for 3 euros! it is  in OK condition and it is EXACTLY the same box (not exactly the same circuit thought) as my mexican fuzz wha&volume. take a look!





American Left, Mexican right


well ,the FOXX doesn't work and I found a couple of broken diodes (germanium diodes?) what kind of diodes would be a good replacement of those? as you see in the pics they are shattered.







  Apart from that I gues the standard procedure would be replacing all electro caps, but any info on replacing those diodes will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Foxx had pedals made in Mexico so they could well be the exact same thing.  For those diodes, I would go to smallbear and get ones that have that look, according to schematics they should be Germanium.

Two awesome pedals there.
