I just found these here. Note that the Afro Fuzz has already been pinpointed as the Seymour Duncan Tweak Fuzz in another thread.

You either have to have huge balls or just don't care to have many sales.

No... you only have to find those - nuts - people who buy it....
And believe me, there are a lot around....

I've heard from a local repair guy that the build quality on those are very poor.

Exactly!

I'm not going to put something down just for being expensive, but if you're going to charge $500 for a fuzz box, you could at least make it look like a serious piece of gear and not a hobbyist's weekend garage project.

The Germanium Boy sounds good:

In another thread it was mentioned that it was probably a NPN Rangemaster with the input cap size selectable on a 12 way rotary switch.

No doubt you have a point!

Many would even say it should look like 'a serious piece of gear' regardless the price. But for $500 a pedal, anything should look and sound like prefection itself.

I have a fuzzy boy I bought used. It sounds super nice - built quality is not very good , but the pedals sounds amazing. I am currently looking for a "stoner boy" and "black sheep" schematic - the only stuff I could find was regarding the stoner boy - a eyelet board with some circuitry drawn on it:




also here is a official gutshot (from their facebook site) from the "showtime" pedal:

Looks like the electronics fairly bent over and spackled inside that box.

Wow , surprised that it even works or will continue to, but sort of looks like early japanese
transistor radio qulaity from the 60's

"Jaunty" doesn't do it justice.
