umph Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 [quote name='GarethFlatlands' post='1001533' date='Oct 26 2010, 05:55 PM']Cheers, will do. I reckon I might need some help on component changes for switching NPN and PNP circuits, adding a blend control and improving bass response. Got 4 boxes coming, 2 * 1 knob, 2 * 2 knob and a 5 knob. I reckon a couple of fuzz faces, (1 AC127 germ and one BC108 Si), a couple of one knob fuzzes (ie colorsounds) and either a fuzz factory or a wooly mammoth clone, although I'm open to suggestions. Edit:- here's a list of the transistors I've got so far to play with. 8 * BD139 (possibly useless for fuzz) 4 * gain selected (2 pairs) AC127 20 * BC108 6 * BC109B (might use a couple of these for modding my Crybaby) 2 * gain selected 2N404 6 * AC176[/quote] sounds like a great plan to me! i'll show you the mods i've tried for my fuzz faces once you've had a play around with the circuit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfisher Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 [quote name='Darkglass' post='1007528' date='Oct 31 2010, 04:32 PM']The assembly quality looks quite Ok. I have seen way worse (and way pricier!). The components seem to be as good as it gets (for pedals anyways) Wima capacitors... good stuff. I like to use the least amount of wiring possible. More reliable and cleaner: Regards! Doug.[/quote] Very nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So parts + labour how much would you value?[/quote] Parts wise - I'd expect some change out of £20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 If you're after a high quality Colorsound Bass Fuzz clone, the sfx Micro Fuzz is a good option: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
