BearFoot Pink Purple Fuzz 0c63382a4af6

Sneaky Fuzz Friday you probably didn’t see coming! And on Valentine’s Day too boot. See? I still love you guys. Here’s Bjorn’s Pink Purple Fuzz, a hybrid JFET, silicon, and germanium transistor fuzz. Schematic and discussion on FSB here. And don’t forget about the sale going on over on the store. “Val20” at checkout gets … Read more

BearFoot FX Honey Beest

BearFoot Honey Beest b996ddab5f58

This one just got traced over on FSB. Apparently the heaviest of Bjorn’s Honey designs. Here’s the schematic for reference. Note: In the schematic the source and drain on Q1-2 are reversed from the way they are normally oriented, but I recently learned JFETs are generally symmetrical and will work either way. The original is built … Read more

BearFoot FX Baby Blue OD

BJFE Baby Blue OD d6bd548c8d41

Here’s Bjorn’s Baby Blue overdrive. Fairly straight forward JFET circuit with hard clipping in the 2nd stage. The clipping diodes in the original are (massive) 2A1200s, but other silicon diodes will work–socket and experiment. The JFETs used in the original aren’t confirmed, but I’ve laid it out for GSD pinout. Pots are board mounted and … Read more
