Moon Fuzz

Sample 1:
Vol (9:00), Fuzz (Max), Toggle (Dark)

My take on the classic Fuzz Face. NKT274 NOS germanium transistors have a bit more gain than what the original FF circuit called for. Some other mods include:

  • Toggle switch on the input filters for bright/dark.
  • Increased volume output
  • Troo bypass

Hand-crafted, point-to-point construction in a small enclosure, hand-etched artwork.

Man-eating fuzz/distortion. Controls (left to right) are Volume, Bass, Treble, Gain. Huge amounts of volume on tap, unity is around 9:00. Great with both guitar and bass.

Sample 1: Sample 2 (band):
fuzz starts 0:21. clip fades with fuzz+wah.

Silicon/Germanium hybrid based on the Tone Bender mkIII. A Darlington silicon amplifier pushes the signal into a NOS CV5416 germanium (substition for OC84) for a thick and chewy fuzz. Does extremely well with the guitars volume knob. Tone knob goes from a muffled blanket of bass, to bright and cut-through treble.
