Conqueror Fuzz

[Jbanks]

This thing sounds wild. It takes a couple minutes to warm up all the transistors. When I first turn it on I get nothing, then a spit, then a roar of fuzz. The fasel inductor does make a nice Q tone that you can sweep. It is a very harsh, gated style fuzz, so beware. At least it looks really cool with the white enclosure.

Sweet!!
I don’t think that transistors warming up thing is normal...
I’ve made about 10 of these and none of them did that...

Looks good!

Hmmm. I was curious if other people had that issue. At least it works at some point!

I built the pedal and it has a lot of range in its fuzz and is pretty smooth overall. Powers up instantly.

Is it possibly that 470 uF capacitor that is soaking the voltage on startup?

Should not be gated either. See you in the Troubleshooting forum, I have some ideas.
