Hi there! I'll post a link to the schematic when I get home tomorrow but I can seea minor mistake already. The horizontal 47nF cap should be rotated so the top leg connects to the emitter of Q1. Bottom leg stays in the same spot as before. I'll post the an updated layout tomorrow. And yes! 24 cuts and 12 links it is.
Hey fuzz head - does the rotary switch above replicate the original in terms of position? Eg (looking from the front the far left position is the “cheese/gated” position? I Only ask - so I make sure that my enclosure design replicates the correct switch positions. Thanks for the layout. Keen to build this one.
Not sure if this layout corresponds exactly to the original pedal, but if you scroll about halfway down in these comments, there is a link to the blog where Anders/Fuzzhead got the trace+schematic that he drew this from. On that blog post is a list of the tone settings that correspond to the positions on the rotary switch. Hope that helps.
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteDid you build it?
No, I haven't. So it is waiting for verification....;-)
DeleteHi there, cheers for the layout.
ReplyDeleteJust checking, I'm only counting 24 cuts and 12 links?
Also, can I check what schematic you used for this one? Got it up and running and I've got a throbbing noise, so need to trace and find the problem.

Cheers mate.
DeleteLayout is updated and here is the link to the schematic.

That sorted out the problem, its now verified, cheers for the update!
DeleteRight on! Thanks a lot! I'll tag it as soon as I can.
DeleteCan I use a 2P4T? It’s all I have.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid you really need a 3 pole 4 throw switch for this...:-(
DeleteThat’s ok. Figured. Thanks. I should try one of your fuzz designs. Any suggestions?
DeletePink Goat semms to be quite popular, follwed by Dronestortion...I would say Pink Goat!
DeleteI second Pink Goat. Great circuit.

DeleteThanks man. I’ll take a look and see what I can figure out.
