Sam Ash FuzzStainer

Hen's teeth fuzz box gets a makeover.

Covering a lot of vintage fuzz territory, the FuzzStainer can do thin and raspy to full and gutsy with the help of the external Bias control, originally am internal trimmer. Sam certainly missed a trick there.

We're not even offering the kit without this, such a gamechanger it is.

The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.

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.

Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures and vertical-mount pots. Please choose appropriate knobs.
