Title: Meet the Bloody Face!
Post by: Gledison on February 08, 2014, 03:10:51 PM
Hello everyone.
I've found a chocolate tin box laying around and decided to build a classic Fuzz Face in it.
Im using a 1T108B as Q1 and a AC125 as Q2.
the box is actually quite sturdy and no problem of stomping on the bloody faaaaace! :P
hope u enjoy it as i did!

Try bending the end of the lead over against itself, so that it's doubled up - I had to do that to get one of these guys to stay in its socket in my Tonebender.

To be honest, it's my first Tonebender, so I don't really have anything to compare it to! But the circuit sounds pretty much like what I was expecting, so I can't complain. And they look cool!

That looks great! For some reason the face reminds me of the masknout of the Scream movies.
