Fuzz Face Off Board Wiring

andyo64 · Post by **andyo64** » 22 Mar 2010, 02:39

I'm having so trouble figuring out how to wire up a Fuzz Face circuit I had gotten from Fuzz Central. The positive ground aspect is a bit confusing. How to hook the power jack along with a battery to the PNP transistor circuit with positive ground. I need a picture if anyone has one.

Thanks,

Andy

There's several options on that page for Positive ground wiring with diagrams.

That is what I tried but it didn't work.

Here is a link from Fuzz Central of the PNP off board wiring 3pdt switch.

It looks like the battery is grounded to the input jack and then -9v to the ckt and the power jack just has -9v to the 3pdt switch.

How would you with the power jack ?

Check here or at Tonepad's (there a FF project and a helpful offboard wiring file there)...

Yes - the Tonepad site has a great doc regarding off board wiring that I've used before but it doesn't explain how to use it with positive ground / fuzz face PNP variation / powerjack / battery - the only place that I can find that comes close is Fuzz Central / Faqs link.

Is there a way to post a question on Fuzz Central?

Hi

Can anyone send me the Tonepad's PDF offboard wiring?
The site doesn't seem to have it any more =\...

Apparently the Tonepad website has been hacked....

Precisely...

That's why I'm asking for the PDF directly, since it's the only file I need that seem's to be down =\

Have you tried looking in the Vintage Stompbox Corner pre-1975 threads?, I think there are some wiring diagrams there, also try looking in the Workbench section too...

Well, yesterday was online again and almost all of the schematics, including the offboard diagram.

Sugest to download as many pdf's as you want/can...

You guys have probably already seen it, but here it is just in case:
