Looks great, very clean build! And I gotta tell you, the build using just carbon film resistors gave me REALLY nostalgic vibes, from when pedal building was based on etching your own PCBs, you could buy thru hole J201 for cents. Cool times!

Looks beautiful!

Sounds really good thru a Marshall almost dirty too, but yeah, sounds like ass on a clean Fender style amp

Thanks a lot 🙏🤘

You can increase r4 to, say, 1k. It Will change the tone a bit, but the output will be higher

The main thing about fuzz faces (and tone benders, Zonk Machines, Fuzz Rites) is: the key is to buy a bunch of transistors and experiment a lot. The leakage affects how the fuzz face will clean up, how gradual is the cleanup, the texture of the decay. The internal capacitance of the transistor...

I don’t usually care for mojo components, but when it comes to fuzz, I really enjoy building with old, big, colorful and overly expensive components 😂

I always like to try different finishing on existing products of my lineup… looks like I’m always trying to find new ways to get a headache, 🫠. Anyway, I really liked the black finishing with the black 3pdts and golden artwork with golden knobs! I ended up building this one for my own pedalboard...

Thank you 🤘🤘

Finally got a PCB made for this project. 1/2W carbon comps, Styroflex 2n2 at the input and Tropical Fish for the 47nf and 100nf. The transistors are Toshiba 2SB54 for q1, GT310b for Q2 and a TI 2N404 for q3. Sounds really awesome!

This!

Now that is a sexy pedal! And awesome write up 👏

This pedal does indeed sound really good. I built one a few years ago and made a post recommending it, too! The distortion portion of the circuit is a modded BSIAB II, look at the schematics and you will see it ✌️

Clean as a whistle 👏

Awesome idea and top notch write up as always 👌👏
