Still filled with the same old crap arent you?

This is totally original. The board, components, pots. I have one exactly the same. The copper and inside of these units are usually very clean and shiny so if you don't have any and are just shooting your dumb, worthless 'thoughts' out, hold it in and blow it out your fart hole because that's what it's worth.

Nice first post, class on its own

Great entrance!

I built a Supa Fuzz Clone with OC75 with low HFE (Q1 60 / Q2 80 / Q3 100).

I put a 100k pot in there on the collector of Q2 and the 8.2k resistor on Q3. With a fresh battery I only get 6.5 V on the collector of Q3 with low voltage on Q2s collector. When I turn the pot down completely I get 8.5v on Q3 but then with 8v on Q2...

What am I doing wrong?

No idea what you did wrong, but it's not what the circuit behaves like when wired up correctly. Decreasing the size of Q2's collector resistor increaseses Q2's collector voltage and decreases Q3's.

Hello everyone. I want to build a Supa Fuzz or Tone Bender.
There are only four different components, two resistors and two capacitors.
Has anyone built it and what transistors were used?
Thank you very much.

If that helps, I used on the Marshall one MP41A, seams to do the job. Less difficult to bias than the MK Colorsound, but, to me more heat sensitive

Anyone have measures of collector's bias voltage for Q2 and 3?

Does anyone know what font comes closest to the original one used for "Supa Fuzz"? Thanks!
