I had done my RL but there seem a treshold to get the fuzz sound.
When plucking softly, i get no FUZZ.
Simply clean tone (a bit driven than dry tone maybe ???)
But when strumming with chord, it FUZZ, but when the sound faded, the fuzz sound suddently disappered at a point, lefting the clean sound to ring until mute.
Is this a behaviour to classified as normal in RED Llama?
This happened when GAIN is at after 2 O'Clock.

Well, it's supposed to clean up with lower guitar volume, this is also very noticeable when you don't hit the strings as hard. This is really cool, you can get some cool dramatic dynamics.

It's supposed to be gradual though, if it just turns off from one moment to the next there may be an error in your build....

that sounds to me like he's getting a bit of gating from his transistors...  check your voltages and post them!
