strange Fuzz

[yeeshkul]

I found this in my notes. Does it ring a bell? I have no clue what it is 




look at the Darligton pair and the diode in Q3's base ...

Oh yeah, teh mkIII, it's definitely a classic. It's the best seller in my deliver-your-friends-something listing, by the way, so it shows.
From almost smoothy overdrive to ripping fuzz it is.

You might change the subject's title. The only strange thing is tha fact it is called that way.

Some values are incorrect, like C5=10uf and R5=3k3. Check the usual links.
