Can o'Fuzz

From the vendor

Yet Another Fuzz Face. And what's wrong with that?

This one isn't reinventing the wheel. It's just a solid sillicon FF that does the job right. No nasty fizz. Sounds great with the guitar volume wound back for some clear hair on chord work. Nice.

We've included the option to go for a Reverse Log (C) taper pot for the fuzz control. Do it. It's so much better. Why designers don't go for this by default is a mystery around here.

The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and can take a battery if desired with footswitch positioned 22mm higher, closer to the controls. Knobs are not included.
