From the vendor
Want some crazy out of control Fuzz sounds? Also want some useable, Germanium transistor based Fuzz sounds? Look no further than the 5 Knob Fuzz, a modified classic Fuzz with tonnes of fuzzy goodness and some unique controls over some other elements in the circuit that really take this pedal to another level. Utilizing a pair of Germanium PNP transistors, its important to realize that not just any transistor can be thrown in there. However, the simplicity of the design means that this is a super easy build for a beginner.
