Fuzz Guy

The silicon Fuzz Face is a glorious thing. But what if you want more control of the subtleties streaming out of that sublime circuit?

Easy - add more knobs!

The Fuzz guy adds three. Bass lets you tweak the fuzz to suit your pickups - wind it up for single coils, pull it back when you plug in your LP. Mids will help cut through a mix. Feel adjusts the biasing to go from gated and spitty to smooth and creamy fuzz. An internal trimmer adjusts the range of that to your personal taste.

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included. Pot spacing is 17.5mm so take that into account when selecting knobs.

Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures. Please choose appropriate knobs.
