Hey all, hope everyone is well!
Latest effort is a DBA Fuzz War v1 clone, the er, infamous 7 transistor version! I’ve always been curious about this version having built a couple of the 4 tranny Big Muff based version. The original circuit design seems to have got a lot of flack as well as a reputation for being temperamental, found this board from PCB Guitar Mania so thought I’d give it a shot!
It needed a bit of work to get the best out of it, namely using 2N5088s with similar gain, preferably the lower the better.
Anyway, the main thing is, I really like it! I wouldn’t necessarily call it versatile but if you like over the top raging doom fuzz then you might dig it!
Etched and painted with a dose of glitter spray, again!
Had a go at doing a demo vid too;
