Looking for the right fuzz

[Gigahearts_FX]

I used to build them and I think I offered an ok price - £125 GBP

Demand just isnt what you would imagine...

Yeah I made a clone, with the volume boost mods. It rips amps in half. It makes my Bassman scream!
It's a highly documented build, there's a couple good versions I have seen. I went with the single chip dual opamp buffer model rather than the 2xTL071 "Great Cheddar" build.

I put it in a 125B with the rotary, I'd upload a pic but my phones smallest pic is like 8M still.
EDIT: I got an app! Eat it world!
And yeah I don't care about graphics so I "Sharpie'd" that ass.. I've since started using mailing labels and a laser printer for some better graphics

I should probably take a look at the Stinky Cheese I have that someone else built. The two mids settings and the 'Gated' setting sound the same, while the tone bypass definitely bypasses the tone and sounds different than the other three. Thinking maybe that the switch wasn't aligned in the PCB correctly, or that it's the wrong type of switch.

Still, the three identical settings sound pretty killer!

Actually the best stooges sounds in a box I've ever used was a dod punkafier... I miss mine...

OLC (Officially Licensed Circuits) sells the Chunky Cheese as a prebuilt for $170 or as a kit for $90. It's a pretty easy project if you're at all solder-competent. It was my second or third build and worked right off the bench after I realized I'd wired the input and output jacks wrong. I had a little orgasm when I plugged mine in for the first time, and that was through a crappy little apartment rig with even crappier headphones. The four modes (mid-scooped, mid-boosted, flat and bypassed) are pretty distinctly different and all sound great.

The OLC kit includes the volume mods I believe too, so expect it to rip amps in half!
I used a smaller tone pot in mine after a few test values because it gets pretty shrill past halfway IMO - I think I used a A50k Depends on which guitar and pickups of course, I upped the input cap value on mine as well for more retained bass - stock value is a 47n, I put in a 100n electro that I had on the counter while I was fooling with it and it sounded great with all the guitars I had in the room at the time
I rave about that pedal to everyone I know who plays guitar, and clearly the internet at large. The Mid Boost setting just sounds so huge and glorious.

It's name is very accurate. I like mine a lot. Can go from fairly standard fuzz to pretty damn blown out fuzz.
