I was bored so i put two tonebenders on a circuitboard with three toggle switches. The main in/out switch selects GE or SI fuzz and the other two toggles select Tonebender or Fuzz face thus giving you four fuzzes on three toggles :mrgreen:

Thats a lot of fuzz in one place :shock:

I think you only need one 9v feed going in.

Update: fixed the shem to make kaycee happy :mrgreen:
Not sure how it sounds yet but ill be able to verify once my transistors come in. But i have built the silicon tonebender and love it.

Ahem. I'm pretty sure you only need one polarity protection diode. :)

Nice work. And good job on isolating each circuits power supply. That should help prevent hiss, oscillation, and other pesky issues.

:oops: Sorry Vick, didn't mean to come across picky. I just thought that a Noob might get confused by two power inputs - I know I would have.

BTW, what does the green face guy mean :mrgreen: :?:

anyone else think "face bender" would be an awesome name for this?

^Check out the name on the germanium schematic, I just took df's idea and expanded on that.
^^it means im just playin round and should be thanking you instead of giving sass :wink: not picky at all, I just forgot that i could move all the components over so i could add the power supply line when i first put it together.
^^^All i did was use beavis's huminator twice, thats why i had the two diodes at first :oops:
Edit: updated schem, forgot r17

I verified the benders, havent added the face switches yet. Had to move a few things around and barely had enough room on the perf to fit it all(measured bias with a pot and used a fixed resistor for the ge side) But yea, it works great :mrgreen:
I also realized that i could use one dpdt instead of two spdt switches for the face modes as well
Edit: all switches verified and good to go.
