Beatle Juice Fuzz diode question

[Plaidesaurus]

Did you end up using a A10k or B10k like the doc lists? I am starting the Beatle Juice and I have both on hand. I also have an A5k if that's what you ended up with using the resistor.

The A10k on the volume put is definitely the ticket. Fixed the problem for sure. Thanks for the feedback

Great thanks! Did you try a A5k also?

I did not. Thought I start with the A10k and lower the value with a resistor across the lugs if needed But 10k worked fine

Was this build worth it?

Yeah absolutely. It's a one trick fuzz but it's a beast. Made another one for a friend and he loved it. But I highly suggest using an A10k for the volume pot instead of the B10k. You get a lot more control over the travel of the volume swell.

a lot of pedals that I have built the volume is very touchy so loud so quick and the pedals won’t sound good unless the volume/“level” is cranked I wish there was a way to fix that
