try adding different size caps between B and C of Q1 on a fuzz face for some instant buzzzz...
i've been using a .01uf and digging the sound.

any thoughts?

Add that cap onto Q2 for a massively compressed and super fat fuzz tone.  ;) Your output will go down a bit...

I like smaller caps (pF values) on Q1 to act like some negative feedback. Can cut some highs and make things quieter. Especially useful on silicon and hybrid designs.

why do larger cap sizes here, on mine at least, give MORE highs?
