I've acquired one of these but it's not working , anybody know where I can get a schematic or even an explanation on it's functions ??

I have one.  The front button does the fuzz, the wah is normal, but if you plug into both output jacks when you sweep the wah it pans the signal from one channel to the other.  I would look at the circuit for a standard fuzz-wah and go from there.  It should be pretty close to that.

Well , the wah works but not well , the fuzz does not work at all . Why are there 2 pots , seems like they would cause opposing sweeps ...one going towards the high end while the other sweeping the bass end ??

The two pots pan the wah across the stereo field. I have had one of these since I bought it new, but the pots wore out, and replacing them is a major headache. Geoffrey Teese was nice enough to send me some info about doing the job, but mine is still on the disabled list. If you get it working, try running it in stereo, and processing each side differently (say, delay on one side, dry on the other). I'd love a schematic to figure out what parts are the fuzz. Mine was always a little too gatey.

Here's the schematic for just the fuzz:

The pots are trim pots on the pcb. A very aggressive fuzz!

Thanks for all your help ...still no action with the pedal and there sure seems to be more parts that are normally in a vox wah and the fuzz circuit  ! ?
