I love building fuzz pedals and I love making friends. This is a story about both, because @peccary sent me this board, the transistors, and the diode. I had to build it basically right away, and I'm glad I did. He sent me several diodes of which I tried a few, both forwards and back, plus a BAT46 in both directions after reading @blackhatboojum build report. I settled on one of the germanium diodes that Joe sent and installed it Get Rad style backwards.
This pedal was an absolute breeze to wire and box up, thanks to the in/out connections at the top of the board.
The Get Rad logo looks great on these boards so I wanted to get a good picture of that too.
Joe recommended using the pedal with all the controls dimed, which would have been the first thing I tried anyway. I could see building this without the sustain and balance pots but I like the range of tones in the attack pot.
Thanks @peccary!!!
