Hey all,
Recently built a silicon Sunflower Fuzz and it sounds great!
I have noticed that when turning the fuzz knob from about 90-100% I am getting a 'sizzle' sound sustaining off each note played.
Here's a clip with 1. clean guitar 2. the pedal on with fuzz about 3 o'clock 3. fuzz all the way up with 'sizzle' sound (very prominent toward the end of the clip with low E)
Listening back to this clip, its less prominent than in person.
I noticed touching Q2 while this is happening has an effect on the prominence of the noise.
Anyone have an idea what is causing this? Normal? Sheilding? Product of using transistor sockets?
