Unfortunately I bought mine used, so while I'm sure I have the "Sun Dial" (which controls bias and compensates for temperature differences) and the NKT 275 (vintage correct germanium transistors), I'm still not sure if mine is considered "high gain" or not. Keep that in mind as you read, because my main complaint about this pedal is that the gain is a little higher than I'd like, and that may be because there's a chance I've got a special ordered high gain pedal and don't realize it. This is a "clone" of a 1960s Fuzz Face. I've never played a real vintage Fuzz Face. I've played the reissue Fuzz Face and don't think it sounds good. This pedal sounds a lot better than that. Three knobs - volume and fuzz, and then the optional bias knob. True bypass foot switch. No power jack. I think you can special order one with a jack for a power adapter, but it's going to sound better with batteries anyway.
