I just ordered 9 of these puppies!
As of now 7 of them are claimed:
* 1 for Luks999
* 1 for Jebus
* 2 for Muadzin
* 1 for billyblunt
* 2 for myself and a friend

dre has not responded yet, but there will at least be one more for grabs. Anyways, they way I like to handle this is like follows:
once I got the boards from OSH park (rougly 3-4 weeks), I'll send out PMs. Once I've got your address/country I can hopefully look up shipping costs and give you an exact price. One board is 6$. Once I received payment via paypal, I'll send them your way. Europe only! Just doesn't make sense to send the boards back and forth over the atlantic and will also be cheaper for our US friends to order/distribute themselves.
Hope that's cool with everyone.

You, good sir, are a God amongst mortal men!

make sure you source and use some genuine BC549c to get it sounding just right...

m-Kresol

thanks for the tip Ian.

update: the boards have been sent to the fab on Monday. Still at least one more board available. Get them while they're warm!

There's lots of these available on eBay, any idea if they are the real deal?

musikding.de caries them for 6 cents/piece as well. Up to now, everything I bought from them checked out

Oh, forgot to check Musikding. Thanks for the info! That's probably my favorite place to order stuff in larger quantities.

UPDATE: Order has been returned from the fab and is now on the way to me! should take 10-14 days.

dre has not responded yet to my pm, so it looks like there are actually still 2 boards left!

a fuzz face with buffers and tone controls. looks like the circuit i was looking for along time :-)

The rotary switch is what makes this circuit really useful.

Plus 'cheese' mode.

Any idea do I need pots with extra long legs for this? Or does the "normal" (~12mm legs) ones do the trick?

m-Kresol

I think the normal ones will do the trick but I would definitely put pots into the enclosure first, drop the pcb with the soldered switch in and then solder the pots legs. I think it will be close, but it should work.
