Happy Fuzz Friday! Been meaning to redo this one for a while with board mounted pots. A buddy of mine was reminiscing about a Sunface he used to own and wish he still had, so I built this with some OC71s for his 40th b-day. AnalogMan has used loads of different transistors in these over the years, both germanium and silicon, so socket and experiment. Easy fit in a 1590B.
This is a library of perfboard and single-sided PCB effect layouts for guitar and bass. I'm not an electrical engineer by any stretch of the imagination, just a DIY'er who likes drawing layouts. It is meant for the hobbyist (so commercial use of any of these layout is not allowed without permission) and as a way to give back to the online DIY community.

SMD RAT
There's no getting around it, through hole components have long been on the way out and being replaced by SMD. I've had several clients I do board design work for either going full SMD or at least a hybrid with SMD for resistors and a few other components, and TH for caps. This RAT layout goes the more hybrid route, giving you the option for TH or SMD caps (except for electrolytic caps). The opamp remains TH so the LM308 can still be used.
