the differential distortion ?

[fuzzo]

hi every one , as I know there's some some "electronic pro" here, I guess you can help me.

What's the particularity of this kind of circuit (even I've seen the two transitors face to face),



the same schema is used in the univox superfuzz and its son the zvex octane 2

how it works ? What's the impact of the produced sound ?

thx
