Behringer Super Fuzz

[bw13]

Hello everyone ! new guy here

so i'm about to order behringer super fuzz, but before i do that i wanna buy 3pdt switch for true bypass

and the new enclosure not to look like a toybox

i'm familiar with soldering but i never done whole true bypass thing

so can you guys guide me ? how can i do it and have you ever done it to this particular pedal

cuz i can replicate it visually , otherwise i'm noob

thanks

I've done their hm300 which is quite a bit easier than the super fuzz because it doesn't have the board-mounted switch. i didn't bother making it true bypass because a buffer here and there is okay in my book (18 buffers... not so much), so i just replaced their momentary switch with a soft touch momentary switch. i kept the board-mounted pots on, drilled a hole big enough so that the shafts could poke through and they're held in place by the knobs. had to use a regular jack instead of the stock board-mounted one. used the board-mounted jacks, unsoldered them to get the board in the box, then resoldered to hold it in place.

i'd like to caution again against going the true bypass route, as the board-mounted jacks (which you'd do away with going true bypass) provide a lot of stability to the board inside the box. big pain in the ass, little reward

i could change slide switch with toggle

like this i guess , but i don't wanna pay 100$ more for this 20$ mod

by the way if i'll need to buy input and output jacks ... should it be mono or stereo ?

[thetragichero]

uses a stereo jack to disconnect power when nothing is plugged into the input. if you care about this, use one. i always power from supply so i'd use mono jacks, or really whatever i had handy
if you're going for new jacks, give consideration to how the board will stay mounted in the enclosure. maybe standoffs?

i think with 3 screws from the top of enclosure, you see the link i posted up is mounted with alfa pots and 1 screw but pcb has 3 holes for screws
