From Schematic to Fully Working, Enclosed Fuzz

[fuzzymuff]

Well, I attempted to finally build a pedal from the ground up, from schematic, to making a vero layout and to a finished fuzz.  Man, this Sili Face fuzz is LOUD, unity gain is about 10:00.  Its not your typically fuzz face tone, it has much more gain, and yet very defined and not at all muddy sounding as a fuzz face.  It also cleans up really well by lowering the guitar volume.  Great fuzz pedal indeed.

Cost less than $25.00 to build....

Dude, thanks for giving me some tips on this build. Man, I didn't think I could actually build a pedal from the ground up.

Thanks...now, Im working on the Gus Overdrive.  I did the layout and will be breadboarding it tomorrow.  I never knew, I can actually read a schematic now...learned all this stuff online and mainly from here.

Yeah, nice little build.  I particularly like the way you wrote "Volume" on the back of your one-and-only pot.
