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
The heaviest fuzz you’d ever heard. The king of doomy fuzzes.
Introduction
The insanely huge fuzz that will satisfy all your needs and shake the walls of your house. Don’t expect mercy nor chord definition from this monster; this fuzz has been conceived to crush absolutely everything.
The notch filter and slope knobs will give you a pleasant surprise on how much you can affect the overall tone, but always keeping it in the realm of total tonal annihilation.
We prepared this board for a more compact 125b enclosure, replacing the rotary switch of the original Mountainking pedal for a more practical and convenient DPDT without losing any of the settings you can achieve with it!.
