That's great man, so glad to hear it! I recommend the deluxe version of the bazz. Really opens that circuit up.

Do what you will. You can still get that sound plus several more, with like 3 more parts, just sayin'.
Have fun with your building.

Ill let you know about the Wooly Mammoth, i got the board today, just gotta get the parts.

There is a guy in australia that sells a "7 minute fuzz" that i belive is a bazz fuss that would also be a good first kit, i ordered one too for giggles anyway.

I built the Wooly Mammoth and even though im not getting a lot of output, a bit more than unity, i love the way it sounds.
