Re: fuzz face low volume

You can try to connect output from second transistor directly to Q2 collector, not through bias resistor (usually 8k2), it should boost volume, too.

EDIT: like this in general FF schematic, I'm not sure what tone stack You've used.

Dunlop - Band of Gypsys Fuzz Face Mini FFM6

New fuzz from Dunlop, ugly enclosure ('couse it's small) but can be interesting. Anybody have it? Some gut shots please?

Re: Buzzaround on eBay

Cool find, but somebody has messed with it a bit. GE diode was replaced, and there's added 33K resistor.
Anyway, should be quite easy to fix it without harm. :thumbsup
This will go for a lot of cash :)

I had DAM MKII with OC75 and it was biased around 8.2V - 8.3V with fresh battery 9.9V.

Re: Oc 81's

apparently robert keeley stocked up some mullard oc81d transitors and put out a ltd. ed. fuzz called black glass that has some really nice demo videos. i once had a tonebender with oc81 transistors and it was too smooth. keeley's pedals seems like it can be a nasty rock / blues machine. Those are n...

Re: WTB : WIMA 5µF axial electrolytic aluminium capacitor

I was looking for them on ebay for few years, without luck. I saw only 10uF value some time ago. Anyway even if You find them they can suck because of age. Better replace them with fresh BCs.

just contact seller and clarify this with him, maybe he will send You another one.

Re: Font for Tone Bender MkI decal ?

Here are labels for MKI. I don't remember from where I've downloaded it... Maybe DAM forum?
Pls remember that Tone Bender is a registered trade mark owned by Sola Sound, use it only for Your builds, do not sell pedals with this name.
