Germanium Fuzz Machine
The designed effect is modeled on the classic Fuzz Face. I used SFT322 germanium transistors (NOS). They have lower gain than AC128/2N404, which gives us a much lower level of distortion. Perfect for rock 'n' roll songs.
The Fuzz has a 125B style housing, "crocodile skin" paint coating, anodized aluminum faceplate, and laser engraved inscriptions.
Instead of the standard linear FUZZ adjustment potentiometer, I used the Rev-Log potentiometer. We can adjust the gain more smoothly. Each transistor can have an adjustable BIAS, allowing for accurate calibration.
