Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
Happy Fuzz Friday, all! Recently I got a request for the new EQD Hizumitas. Found a schematic for it over on FSB and it’s just a BMP. The values are tweaked, but the topology is the exact same as a standard Muff. If you’ve hung around here for really any length of time you know … Read more
This one was a request. It’s another layout for Jordan BossTone, but with onboard pots. Because of the onboard pots I was able to add an anti-popping pull down resistor on the input. Q1 is NPN silicon (so 2N2222 or 2N3904) and Q2 is PNP silicon (2N2907 or 2N3906). The pot centers are 1.2 inches … Read more
Many associate this pedal with the fuzz tone for “Spirit in the Sky” by Prodigal Son, though I’m fairly sure that theory has been debunked. At any rate, it’s a great sounding fuzz, and should be a fairly easy build.
Not really a vibrato circuit, but a nice sounding tremolo. This layout is based on the schematic drawn by LucifersTrip on the FSB forum. I’ve increased the value of the film capacitors from 100n to 220n to reduce the maximum speed a little and make it more usable. People seem to have used anything from … Read more
