"is that... is that an x or a crossed out smiley face or is he coming on to me? MYSTERIOUS COMMUNICATIONS."

I'll say this having owned the two faced fuzz, it's not worth the effort.

It's not necessarily a question of being worth it or no. It's just a matter of getting the information cataloged for future reference. Having the option to build a particular circuit, or just being able to access information to repair it, is nice to have. That's what this mission is all about. In the meantime, he's a video of the Lion. Although I'm not a fan of overdrives, this one rings fairly nicely.

I'm working on the schematic right now, with a vero to follow.

Cheers.

Awesome! sounds really smooth, and it sounds like it can stack nicely with other fuzzes. Great stuff man!

Here's the Lion schematic for the tech heads. I'll try and get a vero done this week.



Talked to Karl down at Main Drag Music the other day. He worked with John Schumann back in the day, soldering boards. He said that he would try and see if he can dig up anything insofar as the Two Face and Lion X is concerned.

Nice! Excellent stuff Dino

actually the one I got from you is a back up for the one that was used on this recording

Hey all, just necro-bumping this sucker in the hopes that someone might find Jesus, and help me out with my Two Face and/or Lion X quest.

I know the Lion X has been traced, but to date, has not been shared.

I've encountered one Two Face owner so far, but I've been unable to convince them to part with it for a short period of time. I've even thrown in the offer of building a clone of their pedal as a gift, to no avail.

Schumann owners - 2 : Hen's Tooth Café - 0

keeping hope alive for a two face...

Ask uncle grandfather to buy a couple.

OK, gonna shake things up here.

A very kind gentleman has not only sent me his PLL for repair, but his Two Face Fuzz as well for tracing (as thanks for fixing his PLL).

So stay tuned for a future thread on the dissection of the Two Face. If you folks thought the PLL was a rats nest of wiring, it's nothing compared to the TF. Basically, take the PLL, compress it 5 fold, and you've got the jist of the TF.

Only the Lion X eludes me now... dang it!!

i've been watching the progress on DIY stomp boxes with great interest, but this is amazing

thank you dino, you are a real hero. could you do a scan of the front panel while you have it, i've always really loved the art.

is it the switched version or non?
