Built a couple of Fuzz Faces, one for me and one for somebody else. I put a voltage inverter on the board so it can be used with a standard center negative supply and added the option for a voltage sag control. Otherwise, it's pretty standard. No 600v mojo caps here. :-)

Those are sweet, Dave. That disco purple color is awesome. Reminds me of a 70's era power boat.

Nice job, inside and out. Real professional, as usual.

That fuzz face logo is insanely good. You should be a graphic artist or something.

Thanks Morgan. As somebody who is relatively new to graphic layout that compliment is appreciated. I am sure a real graphic artist would disagree regarding my skill level, however. :mrgreen:

But I learn a little bit more every time....

Nope.

Looking at your pedal builds is kind of like back when I used to pay $10 and sit right in front of the stage and watch Eric Johnson or SRV play at Nick's Uptown in Dallas…
It was both inspiring and humbling at the same time ... :lol:

I am going to save the Rod Stewart theme for the "infatuation fuzz."

It'll sound cheesy and I'll make an annoying video for it.

Yes. Very. Weirder if you were hoping for it.

Wow! These are great!
I like that logo too. 8)
Sag control is a great choice for a third knob.
Is it the stock (2.2uf) input cap?

Thanks, Ben.

This one is stock. I'm going to play it that way for a bit and I'll change it later if I decide it doesn't work for me.
