I've been helping out a guy with O-1 visa paperwork for the last day and a half so I've been taking a break and cutting out the parts and placing them on the trace side pic for myself in photoshop. Would be a cool one to figure out!
That image gives me a headache :whoa: gotta let my eyes adjust, haha. That IC is $15-20. Doesn't seem like anyone came up with an equivalent yet. Should we buy em all up, and worry about the schematic later? :lol:

I know what you mean. I just did this in PS but think that's about as much as I can handle for today! There's some traces that go under the pots so an educated guess would help figure those out and likely you would get that educated guess by mapping everything else out which I don't think I will have the patience for. Maybe if someone ever posted more videos for it to create mo GAS then it might be worth it. Just not my thing. But all the parts are here. By referring to the other pics in that freestomp thread you cold probably get all the resistors locked but a lot of the electro cap values would be a mystery. Think it's solvable but me 2 dumb!

It's sure to be the next hot ticket item on reverb!

:lol: I was wondering why none were available. I almost contacted him to see how much they were/if any were going to be up...or idk, if he'd share the schematic :p

Doesn't really seem like a muff at all, other than superficially. Based on the circuit topography, clips, and limited discussions...A different beast altogether.

:thumb: you gonna grab it? I can't afford it, atm. Apparently that one is listed cheaper than usual, as it's B-stock. Wonder how much the normal price is?

I think it's a good price, but everytime I buy a fuzz of any kind I end up not liking it :lol:

Maybe I'll buy it if it's still there after a week or two, it's such a strange sounding fuzz it's very tempting.

All of that guys builds look top notch workmanship.

Reverb can go suck a fuck. It would be a purple ILF only fuzz.

I had started to work on a schematic but I'm too lazy. Will pm anyone interested if do get round to finishing it.

This thread needs more muffs now.

idk how unique it is, but I just had the good fortune to play an ARC Shepherd and that thing rips--can scoop, flatten or boost the mids but I could give a wet fart about any of that when a pedal rips at 0 on the gain dial, @ 11 and everywhere in between. I kinda thought I was done with Muffs :grumpy: :mope: :oldrant:

Muffs are kind of boring, but yet so moreish.

Usually the blue ones have a personality all their own.
