is it just me or does that schematic look almost exactly like a big muff pi with no output stage and no clipping diodes in the feedback loop of Q2?
edit: yeah it is. just need to also switch the coupling caps to .22uf, switch the 470pf caps in the feedback loops to .001uf and make some very slight changes to the tonestack.
Cool so I'll just try it using the pcbs I have and if anyone finds any useful information post it here cause it will help others on their fuzz journey. This is "our" pedal I only plan on making these 10 the kind of which legends are made of so let's get stupid! Any ideas? Socketed Transistors? GIANT knobs or lots of switches? We could do it so each person decorates their own enclosure and mails it in (should fit in a 1590bb) Names? Mr T on top and the LEDs are the eyes?
Again this y'allz pedals so if you do any research and find info that you'd like to see on your's let us know someone else might want it too. If someone wants to pick out transistors I'll order them ASAP cause the supply might change by spring (a certain mouser supplied Fairchild is about to be obsolete)

I don't know if we can do huge knobs and lots o switches and while gold switches would be awesome I can only think that cubic zirconia earrings could be the knobs. Orrrrr we could make it look like the black and red a team van Or we could have LED knobs.
Sev I just realized this is a heinous thread jack, I'm sorry. I'm just trying my damnedest to stay off the b/s/t page. Again if anyone can do this sooner feel free to take the torche and run with it.
How about just Mr. T's arm with a few LEDs being the sparkles from his rings? That'd be pretty badass.
(I don't think it's that heinous of a thread jack. Everyone seems to be into your plans, Sonny. If I were able to build, I'd offer my help, but otherwise I'll just try to lend other types of support. Whatever that may be.)
