Sounds very cool, man. I especially like the guerilla-style, take no prisoners, fuck you, breadboard build.

Are you wingin' it or using one of the million existing fuzz circuits and seasoning to taste?

bit of fuzz face with a few different values and extra bits. vero boards rule

Nice. I made a similar project for myself last year using the Super-Fuzz circuit as a starting point. It turned out meganasty, as it should be.

Sounds fun. Are you going to provide a bias tweak for the first transistor to vary the gating effect?

i was thinking about putting a mini pot in there but as this is the first one i have built i am not too sure about where it goes

nearly finished this. have put a 10k resistor in series with the input ot remove RF noise, a 47pf cap between the collectors of the tranisistors to further quieten things down and a 10k trim pot before the 2nd tranny for bias.

breadboard mess while figuring it out

Sounds good

in the enclosure. managed to mount it to the fuzz control, not much room there.

Those batteries are actually kick ass for effects. I had a couple back in the day.

it was in with a dano tod1 i bought a bit ago but i normally use a adaptor so never used it. those "vintage" bullshit batteries are the same as

but about 3 times the price

I found a carbon-zinc battery source here for a buck. These used to come free with all the Dano effects, so I had a bunch.

There is only one fuzz you need to be building and that is a sustain punch creamy dreamer.
