Syd Berrett’s Homemade Fuzz Box

According to Syd, he used a fuzz pedal that was made for him by a personal friend who used bits and pieces of the fuzz pedals that were available on the market.

I use a Fender Telecaster, with a 100-watt Selmer stereo amplifier and a homemade fuzz box built for me by an electronics friend out of bits of other fuzz boxes!

Syd Barret, August 1967

Unfortunately, to our knowledge, there are no images of this pedal, so the specifics are unknown. It’s also unknown to what extent Syd used the pedal.
