Here is my Hot Chilicon Fuzz built with a fabbed guitarpcb board. Thanks goes to Juansolo for demo-ing the hot chili in another thread. I went with the exact same transistors he suggested in the demo:
Q1/Q2: 2n3904
Q3: 2n2222
Q4: 2n5088
I tried MANY transistors and took notes. Bottom line, JS's combo just kills in this circuit making very versatile with rolled-back volumes and full gain. just rips,tips,rips. Highly recommend. Oh yes, the Fat switch on with a strat...get the F#*% out :o
Anyway, here is the evil bandito:

What an awesome pedal, I can hear it just by looking at it
Looks brilliant. I'm actually awaiting a Chillicon board to make a new one for myself. I've been going through a downsizing thing of late to try and gain some space...
VERY nice. I really like that design.
I like this a lot! Remind me to always listen to Juan's transistor suggestions from now on...
How are GuitarPCB's fabbed boards? I haven't had a chance to try one just yet.

JS has the ear no doubt!
The fabbed boards are pretty fair overall. The component holes are actually a bit to small and solder can sometimes have trouble "sinking in". That said, I have not had any cold joints....yet. :)
Looks great!! Very clean build :) Nice graphics,
Nice!
