Anyone point me towards a very easy beginner kit? Im thinking a Bazz Fuss, ive never built anything but ive done some soldering replacing pickups.

BYOC come with full step by step instructions, predrilled enclosures etc. Maybe do one of those to cut your teeth then move onto something like this http://pedalparts.co.uk/mosrite-fuzzrite/ ?

If you build the BazzFuss, I highly recommend the deluxe version. Adds a gain and input control. Makes for even more fuzzy goodness.

I have a bazz fuss pcb I could let go of if you can't find one.

Here are some good sources for other kits/pcbs though...

I might take you up on that, there doesnt seem to be many kits for the BazzFuss. I figured it was a good place to start since i like how they sound and seem to be the simpilest pedal ever.

Yea, I noticed that. That first link, Synthrotek, had them but it looks as if they stopped.
Just let me know where to send that pcb, it's all yours.

A Bazz Fuss is a great starting point. Easy circuit that shows how a basic fuzz can function. I'd recommend building the basic model first, then expanding it, as it will help you learn what does what in the circuit.

I just recently sent him a bazz fuss kit, with enough stuff to do the basic 1knobber or the deluxe version

Good man! I've missed seeing those kinds of good deeds since I've been hanging out here less. I'll just have to change that.

Yeah, Jero hooked me up, im gonna start with the one knobber and go from there. I love your Donner Party Noise... so a one knob fuzz is right up my alley.

Hmm...tried to sign up on the byoc forums because the onesie fuzz seems to be talked about a bunch there, but i cant seem to get the activation email. Its been a couple hours now, should i just wait or?

I was gonna post a pic there of the componets unsoldered on the board just to make sure im getting it right

Just post that pic here

Ok, here is a couple pics, nothing is soldered, its just stabbed thru the board. This is my very first time building anything like this so be kind







Obviously this doesnt have the dc, switch or volume set up either

You got it

Sweet!, Thanks

Got it wired up and tested it outside an enclosure and it sounds great, i was gonna be happy with it just working but it really does sound great!

Already looking at Mad Beans PCBs for more...maybe ill do a Buzzaround next
