Here's YAFF (yet another Fuzz Face) for Fuzz Friday. This is the basic circuit for many Lovepedal variations of the classic fuzz using both germanium and silicon transistors. If using PNP transistors whether germanium or silicon, be sure to flip the the polarized components, etc. Here's the schematic the layout is based on.
thanks for posting the layout. i just building & testing this one and it's awesome! i used a 1N2222A (sil/hfe 194) for Q1 and a 2N1306 (germ/hfe 143) for Q2. it also sounded great with two 2N1306's, but the silicon was a little brighter. you can verify it NOW!
Buenisimo! Q transistores puedo usar?
ReplyDeleteFrom the schematic, the original uses PNP Germanium. I would assume the usual advice to socket and try different transistors out applies here.
DeleteOk... Gracias!

ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thanks John
Deletethanks for the great layout..by the way,,what type of DC jack should be used? Switched or Non- switched?
ReplyDeleteA non switched one will work if you're not including a battery, otherwise use the switched.

ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDelete" If using PNP transistors whether germanium or silicon, be sure to flip the the polarized components, etc"
I using pnp transistors.
What I need to change? /capacitors and diode flip is already/
Thank You!
Yeah, just diode and electrolytic capacitors.
DeleteThank You!
DeleteHi again :)
ReplyDeleteWhat type of transistor used on the demo?
sounds awesome, thank you for the help
