The noise and popping may indicate a grounding problem somewhere.

With a fuzz, there may be just enough gain to make the whole thing oscillate.

The resonance switch changes the filter from a bridged T to a twin T. The Twin T generally has more a peak in the passband, for a more exaggerated "wah" sound.
