I built the FuzzDog clone...which makes me as bad as Behringer, I guess.

 

Down with me !!! Boo ! Hiss !

 

 

 

 

Not wanting to derail this thread too much, so happy to take this to messages if necessary.

 

How do you find the Fuzzdog? 

Good sound? 

Little extra noise?

 

Was the build relatively self explanatory?

 

As there is a huge pre-order period for these beringhers I am tempted I go down the self build route

Had an email from PMT saying they’ve not received stock in time for their estimated delivery (when I ordered) of 21st Feb and no update from supplier.  I tried to ask Behringer but the Music Tribe customer nonsense is impregnable.  

 

I ordered mi e from Andertons on 16 December and it came in mid January.

I haven't ssid how I've found it.

 

It's got two slide switches that give three rich, distictive fuzz sounds and one relatively weedy fuzz. The use of ring modulation gives an 'octave fuzz' feel.

 

The twin effect and clean levels workk like blend but better. The sensitivity control works.

 

You can use it to get a Hysteria type clean doubled with fuzz effect, or crank things to get a big clanky distortion  effect.

Sounds good!

 

Any sign of funny whines or hums or the like?

I've had cheap pedals before where there are odd sounds.

 

I think I'm going to do the preorder for 59quid amyway

I like it, sounds a bit retro. More punchy than my tube screamer clone.

 

No nasty noises on battery or run ftom my psu.
