Members mr benn Posted January 31, 2010 Members Share Posted January 31, 2010 this fuzz kit http://www.guitarmagazine.co.uk/content/pedalkit.htm is stunning! just for a bit of background,I buy Guitar Magazine every month and have done so since about 1997,it's simply the best guitar mag around,with loads of diy gadgets and projects in it about five or six years ago they brought out a fuzz designed by Dan of Lovetone using an AC128 germanium transistor at the time I was obsessed with my big cheese so I put pen to paper,fired up the soldering iron and as a result built this... excuse my dodgy pot alignment and questionable wiring skill (this was the first thing i built!) I gave this to our guitar player to use on his board eon's ago and tbh he's not a great fuzz user,so today i took it back and plugged it into my little gretsch... notes literally jump out of the amp and unlike most fuzzes i have it's great on chords,also cleans up better than any other fuzz I have this is going straight back on my board now the only downside is they jacked the price from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mr benn Posted January 31, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 31, 2010 Does it sound like a big cheese? no,it's not as gated I don't think this is a clone of anything,Dan designed the circuit himself as far as I know but i'd say it's influenced by early tonebender type toneshonestly I haven't played enough really old fuzzes to say which it is closest too definitely seems more high-gain than say a fuzzface,and cleans up better than my monsterpiece Mk II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
