fuzztone

[dying slowly]

wanted: suggestions for a fuzz pedal for a raw rasping 60's sound ie the sonics the outsiders (on summertime blues)

Has anyone built a fuzz from a kit. Id like to make one but want to make a good one. Any suggestions out there?

i have built a couple kits with verying degrees of success. some dissapointments maybe due to the kits not being that great component quality and some due to builder error.

the kits from BYOC look pretty nice, especially the Tone Bender and Fuzz Face kits with the premium trannies but the kits are almost at the pricepoint of a good finished pedal from a reputable builder.

if you have the time for tweeking around it is a lot of fun and rewarding.

i have a hard enough time sifting through all of the varieties finding the perfect fuzztone i like, let alone building it.

Fuzzfaces are great too if you can find one-I had a box of them back in the 70's--Hendrix used them a lot-and as I'd read above-you can't go wrong with a Big Muff-especially the silver and black ones from the 70's-there is an AMAZING one out in recent years-out of Japan-called the "Venemous Snake"-sounds like 'Over Under Sideways Down' Jeff Beck--I might be spelling 'Venamous' wrong-can't remember how it was on the fuzz-I used one awhile ago

Big Muff or RAT every time
