Seems to be! 
I thought the price would be as entertaining as the pictures.

Hi.
Thanks.
Is that a silicon fuzzface??
One of the transistors seems to have OC on the side. ??

The use of a 400V output cap (0.01uF) seems extreme.  I wonder if that could be part of the mojo?
cheers

They used the caps that were also probably used for their amps and stuff.  Pretty much what was on hand.

I think the old masking tape makes it worth $1200.  :icon_lol:

It is Silicon and seems all original. Not OC but BC, says TFK BC-108C those are the best silicon fuzz face transistors. Have fun!

  At those prices the mojo-masking tape should be sold separately.
  This is a joke, not a complaint.
