 Here is a layout of an one knob octave up fuzzfrom Norway traced by evilarsen.

  1. I couldn't find a sound clip for the V1, but V2 looks and sounds fantastic !

    1. Hi, i don't know if that 'v1' exist. I traced some fjord fuzz with handdrawing schematic he post on his instagram. I think it's the heart of his products and he probably add features on it. However it's sound really close to the demo.

  2. Verified! man, I'm really loving everything I hear from Fjord Fuzz.

  3. Hello. Isn't the diode of D1 D2 the opposite?
    In my case, there was no sound due to the layout. If you wire from the + side of 10uf to the cathode anode, you will hear an octave fuzz sound.
    Transistors are 2n3905 for Q1 and 2 and Q3 is
    I used 2sc828. hfe is compatible.

    1. The layout is now updated with the correct diode orientation for D1 and D2.

  4. Because there is a lot of noise
    Added a 1n capacitor between the beta of Q1 and the emitter of Q2.

  5. The 10uf capacitor is in the opposite direction, is that okay?
    This circuit looks like a fox x tone machine without the tone circuit and the final transistor. The opposite is true compared to foxx.

    1. Yes, I had some doubts about the orientation of the caps. But I decided to follow the schematic. And evilarsen breadboarded the circuit and he said it worked both ways around. Technically it might not be correct but...

      And yes, it is essentially a stripped down Foxx Tone Machine. It should be easy to add a octave on/off switch.

  6. This isn't working for me. Checked everything several times and I don't seem to find any mistake. The only thing I changed is I ommited d3 and placed a jumper, so I really doubt that's the culprit.

    The only sound I get out of it is a slight kind of crackling sound when I turn the volume pot.
