From the vendor
Nice take on a silicon Fuzz Face.
BC183 transistors are a good balance between the in-your-face attitude of BC108 and the gentle hug of germanium cans.
Body switch gives you two options on the input cap, beefing things up or reigning it in frequency-wise.
The external Bias control offers a huge range of fuzz feels - all out ripping to gated choking.
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 only available with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.
Inspired by: Solid Gold FX If 6 was 9 Mk I
Difficulty: Medium
PCB size: 50 x 30mm
Knobs required: 3
Enclosure: 1590B
Direct-Connect compatible (4-way)
