just wanted to give you a heads up. Built this on a Gruntbox PCB using your notes, sounds real good so far. Your conversion instructions (over at BYOC) have R24 left out. Built it without and got no sound (9v has nowhere to go), then looked closely at a pic of your build and you've got a 100R in R24.

Thanks again.

This is awesome:) I've been gasssing for one of those for a while and i've been playing around with muffs lately. Could I use the madbean MudBunny pcb for this?? would all of the values correspond with the Gruntbox pcb? thanks

Not quite the schematic, but someone could probably work backwards from there to recreate it. It's a thread from BYOC describing how to build a Fire Red Fuzz on a Gruntbox board. (The Gruntbox was a Big Muff PCB designed by Madbean that was sold on CJ's website for a time.)

Madbean, does the current Mudbunny project use the same base schematic (especially part numbers) as the Gruntbox? Or could you post the Gruntbox schematic here?
