Re: Univox - Superfuzz [schematic]

Cost effectiveness, use the layouts that the guys have done up here, imo. They are pretty easy to follow. I've made a couple and they sound killer on bass.

Re: Sola Sound - Tonebender Mark II Professional [schematic]

. Anyone else build these things with the mojo stuff? Notice any real differences? No difference at all!

Re: Univox - Superfuzz [schematic]

Check for the slightly darker colouring on the (usually) bottom. That's negative. They are all orientated the same way except C8 i think, but don't quote me on that!
Have a careful look and you'll pick it.

Re: Univox - Superfuzz [schematic]

Finally got one of these together on the weekend. Many thanks to ShortScaleMike for his layout and all who had input on it. I can say that this build is a whole lot better to my ears than the Leeds Fuzz kit that i built. Both use 2SC828s but this has an unadulterated rawness that leaves the BYOC som...

Re: Zvex - Woolly Mammoth [traced]

Did another of these yesterday, this time with 2222's at just on 200 and a 1k wool pot.
This one seems right on the money! Pinch is actually useful.

Re: you can help to fight the goop - FSB Tracer's Fund

Ive just thrown a couple of $$$ in. Not as much as i just saved by making my own woolly Mammoth clone courtesy of this forum but what i could afford. I don't care what gets degooped as i'm here for the learning and there are more than enough things to keep me going for a long time. Many thanks people.

Re: Univox - Superfuzz [schematic]

Newbie question:

would using NTE 289A's (537G equivalents) on Shortscalemike's vero layout require any other changes?
