has anyone tried to build this?
does it sound as good as in the recording of doug's site?
cause if so it is gonna be my new pedal on the pedalboard...

Not me.
I can solidly recommend it from the clips and from those whove built it though, and posted reviews on the excellent harmonic content and general likableness of the Fuzz sound...I ran out of J201's.
It must be an excellent Fuzz Box...build one and see

IIRC it was "The harmonics just jump right out".

Anything Mr. Hammond designs sounds good.

I haven't built it, but I'm sure you can get some good testimonies here. A lot of how it will sound depends on your guitar and amp combination.

The sound sample is great! Is there a layout anywhere?

I took the tone stack at the front out to hear it straight and I tweaked a few other things - like stuck a footswitch on the second bypass cap for hyper/normal modes, and reduced the front-end resistor to bring the noise down a tad ... I was just experiementing with variations ... after playing it live a few times I realized it really needs some kind of tone circuit ...

btw, we've agreed not to openly post his original schem on here ...
