Vintage: Electro-Harmonix Graphic Fuzz

At Pedals and Effects, we LOVE old school Electro-Harmonix pedals. The vintage Bass Microsynth is one of my all time favorites, I used it extensively on the Vato Negro records. I recently got a vintage Deluxe Memory Man, and big metal box is definitely the way to go with Electro-Harmonix.
