What did you use for transistors in that bad boy? Way too many options for me to choose on my own

1 Siemens AC153 and 2 AC124


I happenend to find them on old PCBs, if you buy them they're surprisingly eypensive (around 3-7 EURs each, sometimes cheaper)

But I'm very. very happy with the way this pedal sounds, so even if I had paid the prices above, it would be totally worth it!

I also just received 3 transistors from guitarPCB for the pumped up ToneBender (close to a SupaFuzz), haven't used them yet, tho.
But it might be a good option, too.

Aw thanks, should've been more specific; I'm talking about the ShinEi/Univox/Unicord Superfuzz, originally using 2SC828 and 2SC539 caps...

2n3904 seems to work okay.

The 2sc###'s are pretty easy to find online if accuracy is your thing.

You looking for univox super fuzz Or Marshall supafuzz as in second post. Two different circuits I assume you munching for univox style. 2sc828s is nice. Play with diffrent emitter resistors and tune that shit. Get breadboards now.

Aw yeah univox IT IS. And breadboards i has!
Why did I think the 828 was a bitch to find?

Try it with germ diodes, silicon or none

I lurvs no diode settings lately, must be NUTS in this circuit.

I've never laid down a superfuzz except on breadboard. When I do acetone fuzzmasters I tend to like it best without diodes. Germs just always sounded too squishy. 914 or 4148 diodes better. Best for my ear has been none or silicon, usually with a switch...
