Illegal Fuzz

Discontinued for some reason, so why not build your own?

Very simple single-can fuzz that produces gated buzz-saw tones.

Just to keep it less simple there's a Thick/Thin switch to make it play nice with single coils or humbuckers.

Not much else to say other than it is mosdef more than the sum of its parts.

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 only available with full kits, and can take a battery if desired with footswitch positioned 22mm higher, closer to the controls. Knob is not included.

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