Artic White Fuzz DIY

[CJ]

this is a nice fuzz, Bearfoot Artic White Fuzz DIY style.

lots of different tones, the best thing about it though is it does not make any noise when you quit playing.

almost a gated sound but without the under biased crunch of a germanium fuzz.

messed up the labels but with smaller knobs you can read them,

just a BC550 (i used BC549) driving a J113. I was going to use the proverbial J201 but the folks over at stompbox.com says it sounds better with the original 113.

only diff between BC549 and 550 is the 550 has a higher voltage rating.

the input pot is kind of unique.
