So I got one of these and opening it up it looks different than the Bosstone in that I see at least 3 transistors in there.  I will probably pull the board and whip up a schematic (still have to find where I put the pather fuzz schematic I did...)

Both of those would be very interesting to see. I tried to find a reference for the Jordan Creator on Google and only came up with some guy using it on his self-released CD-R's and an eBay listing. It's hailed as some kind of "sustainer" distortion.... a mystery pedal?
       I wonder what that "panther" fuzz compares to? Hope you post the schematics or some sound clips, 'cause I'm a sucker for the weird obscure stuff.

Wow!  :icon_eek:

I've never heard of that one and would love to see it.  :icon_biggrin:

Well I opened it up, haven't finished the schematic as it is a very dense and convoluted circuit, but it seems to be very Big Muff Pi.  4 transistors, 1N4001 diodes for the clipping, 10k not 8.2k interstage, 270k bias, 10k and 33k collector load, 150 emitter, hadn't finished with the tone stack but IIRC 2.7nF and 33k.  Pots date 7104.  Very big muff in sound, but I have to do some resoldering as the sustain pot was cold soldered and loose so I can't be sure it was working perfectly when I fired it up.

Someone has the Goya Panther circuit out there but my pedal had some major differences to the other.  It is a 3 transistor circuit like the UMI and things like that.

I have one of those.  I didn't think it sounded that great.  I love the case, though.  I had a wah in it and now I've got a kay fuzz tone circuit in it.  Maybe I'll have to box up the guts in a hammond enclosure.
