Title: JoeB's and his meatloaf
Post by: GrindCustoms on April 27, 2015, 10:58:22 AM
Panos (teknoman2) take on the Dunlop Bonamassa FuzzFace... gotta say that it sound quite.... ...yeah.. good... this is the first time that i put one together and that i feel like it's working correctly. lol

So yep! Here's my first FuzzFace!

That was roomy...

Had this board populated for a long time, 2N404 in Q1 and Q2 with respectively 83hFe & 108hFe, no leakage. Highly tweakable via the bias trimmer, goes from splattery still responsive to more tight with a good attack fuzz.


The MeatLoaf, boxed another mini turret MH, only difference from the previous is the 2PDT and used a fishie cap for the output, same value tho.

Make me a reasonable offer and the MH is yours ;)

i gotta say, while the innards have that classic Rej look, the box seems to have escaped the usual treatment and I for one think it's a damn shame... :)

Haha, thanks man :)

The enclosure got the usual treatment, just not really showing in the pics. The JoeB have a grey primer base coat instead of the black i usually use, makes the sanding marks pop out less. The top coat on that one is a very light blue that i over bake for an hour at 550F that makes it turn more greenish.
