Heads up Builders widely report inconsistent quality from PCB Guitar Mania boards, and whether a given board works is a gamble. Read recent forum reports before ordering.
From the vendor
Project overview
Inspired by EQD’s Bellow, this pedal only needs two knobs to deliver a lot of character! Its sound is located between the mold line and fuzzy saturation to create an extremely antique, dual-zone tone that works equally great with electric guitar and bass.
Introduction
The Fire Fuzz is in between amp-like grit and fuzzy saturation. It starts with a subtle amp-like breakup and ends at full-on raging fuzz. In between, you’ll find an array of useful overdrive and distortion tones. Ready to be wired as True Bypass and with a tight design able to fit in a 1590b enclosure, the Fire Fuzz is an easy-to-build handy gain board that can drive an entire show from the dainty first song to the harsh grounded finale!
