DBA Supersonic Fuzz Gun !

[Tail No Tale]

I think a lot of people want this pedal but can't throw down $250 for a specialty fuzz that maybe can't be used in a lot of songs/band scenarios. A build would be perfect for the player who may only get to turn it on here and there or wants to use it just for recording textures and overdubs. There are already clones popping up for sale occasionally on the net so it may be easy to get the info on the board.

It looks like a silicon fuzz factory to me. Fuzzdog has a pcb for it. Bionic Guzz Fun.

Oh wow. I thought it was similar to the FF with the starve/oscillation stuff. So is just similar or pretty much a dead on copy of the FF ?

Like a lot of the (earlier) DBA stuff that uses those upside down gain stages, many cloners find it hard to bias the transistors right if you try a direct copy.

Some suspect they used transistors that were weaker than normal and replace them with lower gain ones or adjust resistors. I had to do that for the Fuzz Gun and v1 Fuzz War.

It's a little different, not an exact clone.
