Fzzz Bxxx is the best PCB for the famous Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx is impossible we have a PCB for you.

Description

If tracking down a Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx is impossible we have a PCB for you. This circuit produces a powerful and articulate tone that re-creates the sizzling fuzz of that era. Used by greats such as Leslie West (Mountain) and Tommy Bolin (Zephyr, James Gang & Deep Purple). The Fzzz Bxxx cleans up amazingly well with the twist of your Guitar volume producing powerful chiming clean tones on the brink of breakup to an all out Fuzz War.

Fzzz Bxxx Build Document

Our Fzzz Bxxx will yield up to 42dB of boost making it an excellent alternative to the Rangemaster. The Tone Pot has been enhanced to allow a full spectrum of tonal adjustments over the original. Cranking the Attack knob increases saturation, enabling maximum-strength Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx style tone. This setting is great for warmer psychedelic soloing (American Woman) or some tight power chords.

Credit goes to Analogman for the Tone Control insights and Wilkie1 for his overall contributions.
