Gibson Maestro Fuzztone FZ-1/A

[Sancho Panza]

I was just looking at some fuzzes on the net and the Gibson Maestro Fuzztone FZ-1 came up frequently. But i noticed that it was two seperate fuzzes, one called FZ-1 and the other on was called FZ-1A, so what's the difference? I looked at some pictures, and they looked the same to me, is it something with the sound?

 

And just of curiosity, will Gibson reissue it again? I saw that they did it in 2006, but it sold out fast. Any possibility for another reissue?

 

Thanks,

 

Mike.

I believe it was a modification in the bypass circuit (FZ-1A)
