Exar SF-02 Super Fuzz

 Another Exar box traced by Vitali from Drunk Beaver pedals. I've been curious about this one for a while. It turns out that the fuzz section are a Boss DS-1 derivate. The interesting part lies in the Eq section. The Frequency pot controls both a Big Muff tonestack (with a very deep mid scoop notch) and an active bandpass filter. The Equilize control pans between both filters...

It came out quite big but it will fit in 125b box if mounted sideways.

Schematic is avaiable HERE.
