Ive looked everywhere for a schematic on this. I can't find one for the life of me. It's the best fuzz I've ever played, and it looks like a simple build, but I simply can't figure out what's in it. Ive found gut shots, but theyre not doing me any good. Its a silicon/germanium fuzz, with a bias switch. I really want this. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If you've found gut shots post them here.

I'd be amazed if no-one recognises it or what it is based upon.

There's another (short) thread about this pedal, dated Sept 2010.

The gutshots appear to have been removed, but there's a link for the manual (http://www.plumcrazyfx.com/Fuzzy%20Lady.pdf), which may give some clues.

I wouldn't mind trying this.

It's modded fuzz face.
33K replaced with 15K
100K replaced with 75K
470R replaced with 1K
8K2 replaced with 820R+10K (?) pot

small caps on base and collector of transistors (maybe standard 470p on Q1 and 47p on Q2 or something like that)

switchable input caps - I think I saw somwhere 3.3u value for bigger one, smaller cap could be 100n
greenie output cap - could be standard 10n?

Q2 is CV7355, I don't remember what is Q1...

more gut shots

Here's gut shot of Ge version - more or less stock fuzz face - switch changes fuzz cap between 22u and smaller one (4u7 maybe?)

This is awesome. Y'all are the best. You have no idea how long I've been looking for this. Keep it coming if you got more.

If anyone can get me a shot of how everythings connected that'd be great.

C'mon! Its fuzz face type circuit it's not so hard to figure it out...
I've listed part values from fuzz face and with what it's replaced in fuzzy lady...

Sorry. I somehow missed your post now that I've seen it I've redrawn the schematic in the correct way. Once I have a little time I'll try to get one up that shows it on stripboard for you guys. Thanks a lot, i really appreciate all the help. Especially for my first post.
