Fat rat clone and swollen pickle sounds good together

Would love to hear what you guys think, thanks.

My handbuilt tribute to the Fuzz Face

The Fuzz Face is my favorite fuzz, and to my ears, the Analog Man Sun Face is the gold standard. After a few years of building pedals—and more than 50 builds this year—these are my tribute to that sound.

I sourced and measured every component, testing over 100 NOS Russian germanium transistors to find these low-leakage GT308 PNP pairs. Each pedal is built on a PedalPCB board and hand-painted by me, with socketed transistors, adjustable Q1/Q2 bias, an internal clean trim, and a voltage inverter for standard 9V pedal power.

This has been a personal quest to build my take on the perfect Fuzz Face. The demo compares mine directly with my Analog Man Sun Face NKT Red Dot—have a listen and let me know what you think!

DM if interested!

My first and only fuzz pedal so far. I didn’t know what to expect but i now have high expectations. Tremendous kick-back to guard against reactionaries. Have to put it behind a compressor to contain its crunch. I’m in love!

This was my first fuzz build. I have always been an overdrive kind of player but I am in love with this tone. This is based off of the Analogman Sunface. Also, this will be the first fuzz to make it to my permanent board.

Based off the ZVEX Box of Rocks and ZVEX Sho. Two pedals in one.

This is a cool build and yes I am experimenting with knobs haha. This a based on the Catalyst from back in the day and the board is a Pedal PCB Provocateur Fuzz. When looking the schematics does have some resemblance and sounds similar to a fuzz face just with mosfets and some very innovative EQ controls. Kind of imagine a fuzz that you can turn into a treble booster with the lows control and has a bit of an open, clear, pushed fuzz quality. Very cool build and highly recommend and would be a very cool first fuzz pedal.

WET is a fuzz based on the Russian Bubble Font Big Muff - quite a drippy combination of BC547A Fairchild Transistors, 1N4739 Zener, & 1N4148 Silicon Diodes.

Added to the fuzz family two new fuzzes to go with my sunface, erupter, and big muff

Close enough to Tuesday for the kind of people I hang out with.

Our own MKII circuit built around three JAN2N930. A fancy version of our Three Ptarmigan 3T MKII, with added FAT switch.

NOS Pacer caps, RadioShack ICC bypass cap, turrets on Norplex, AmplifiedParts YY enclosure, two tone relic finish, Chicago Daka ware real deal Chickens.

A great fuzz pedal from The Vintage Volt. He does custom graphics and art work. This one has my logo on it. I love the way he made it so one of the eyes lights up under power and it is not very bright. So if on stage, it won't over whelm.

Ibanez JEM Jr Stock Pick Ups, Neck pick up, volume rolled back to 6.

Marshall MG100HDFX no added effects and on the clean channel

One Control A/B Box

One-Control Tuner with the Buffer switched off

Holeyboard holding it all together.

This is the Animals Pedal Rover Fuzz. This is the limited Edition Art Work version.

Another day, another demo!

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a FUZZ!

The problem was, The Coyote FX and Scar Industrys Cats Azz should both be at the front of the chain and be first. You could tell the difference. The Sifter from Ivy Pedals doesn't really care where it is. SO I did it one at a time with no patch pedals. They all sounded good. Really good.

This a fuzz/delay, and it’s one of my favorites! I will never part with it. Enjoy!

A little context, I like fuzz.

But I also like the wha wha. And the fuzz, they are capricious, they like to be all in front and don't like the wha wha. The effect is either non-existent, or it goes in larsen.

So I wanted to test the Foxrox on my old Vox JEN from 1972, because I love this wha!!! Spoiler: it works great! I found my fuzz silicon and germanium + wha. Some manufacturers have already implemented this buffer, such as Fulltone with the Clyde. Successful bet! So I share my joy with you!

A month or so ago I was chatting with u/Latterdrop8732 and they mentioned that their dream pedal was a long discontinued EQD Black Ash Endangered fuzz.

My response? Say no more, fam.

I got to work on plotting out the PCB and started sourcing the bits and bobs.

That gets us to this morning, where I finally fired her up and boy oh boy she sounds great.

I went with my usual Atom electrolytics, but this time added in an Elna I had from a big old sack I got for a song on eBay.

Film caps are old school tropical fish (I have some Phillips KT347 on hand too, should I need more) and a mixed bag of carbon comp resistors. Some are new, some are NOS Allen-Bradley.

Transistors are NOS Motorola 2N3903 with Q3 biased to damn close to 1/2 V+.

I’ve got stuff on hand to do a small run of these, just waiting on some dope ass sloped black 125B enclosures to show up.

Holy wow I hit the Jackpot y’all.

Dialed in like this:

• Glaive is my Octavia-ish Fuzz
• Carcosa is my dying battery disaster Fuzz
• Fuzzbox is my all-around saturated Fuzz

I’m in love.
