its more money than I have in my pocket and its hand made by a fucking hipster from animals at night. he plays the crocodile club in seattle. how hipster is that? I want it and yet I almost didn't post this cause I thought it would drive the price and availability up into D*A*M or KLON regions.

IF ANYONE HAS SCHEMATIC OR A GOOD GUESS AS TO WHAT IT IS I'LL GIVE YOU COOKIES.

he builds them on perfboard but the gut shot is horrible on purpose. anyway what do you think if this fuzz?
:snax:

The demos I've seen definitely impressed me a lot. It seems like a super versatile fuzz, wouldn't mind snagging one. Oh, and the close up on the gut shot in the Jet City demo... :lol:

Has 3 transistors, so there's not many options. I'm gonna guess Tone Bender MK2 (basically, fuzz face with a booster in front) and some resistors replaced by pots.

Bitchin' sounding pedal.

That thing is awfully fuzz factory-like in some settings. Not really in others.
