From the post
Uh oh. Post number 1000. I think I have a problem. :-p. Here is a great sounding simple fuzz from a most excellent builder. It is loosely based on Os Mutantes Fuzz, an aggressive, buzzy and squelchy 60s style fuzz. The most noticable addons are the tone control which are big muff based but it seem to have much wider range. There is also an added recovery stage. The original had 2SC1815 (BCE pinout) transistors which easily can be replaced with 2N2222, MPSA06 or 2N3904. The schematic is avaiable at FSB.
