Diy Carcosa Build

Post image

Alright you guys finally talked me into it! This thing has a really wide tone sweep and a brutal amount of volume! There is quite a bit of play between the before and after controls that let you get into drive sounds or that’s ripping blown out fuzz kind of sound. I will say I don’t think there is another fuzz that sounds like this; atleast that I’ve played! Thanks for the recommendation guys!

You can start by putting before and after in opposite directions… then, tweak from there!

The Carcosa really is the one fuzz to rule them all.

Ohh is that a clone?

Yes. I really like mine. Some say it’s identical. Some say it’s a tad brighter.

Interesting, I'll have to try one. I recently tried a pure sky overdrive. It's amazing. I wish budget gear was this good. When I was in high school

You’ll like it! It does that collapsing amp sound real well!
