From the post
Our ukrainian friend Zzoyds modified version of Masaru Kubuta Allies Fuzz. No schematic for this one but HERE is a very useful link! Here are his description about it:
...we have Masaru Kubota Allies Fuzz. so i built it with germanium transistors + added a third stage for normal volume. What I want to say about this Ge beast; you can use it like a fuzz, you can use it like a Ge booster, which working with every overdrive, every fuzzes! How's the fuzz pot working? Very strange, when you turn to left you get less gain and more highs,when turn to right, more gain and more mids. I really like this one! Using with overdrives, you get another sound! Don't forget to check out his other design, Black Velvet Fuzz.
