Bazz Fuss Mod

[skypn]

I am currently working on a Bazz Fuss w/gain for a friend. He wondered if it could be modded to allow varying degrees of fuzz, like a Fuzz Face. I'm still new to this, so I'm afraid it might be beyond my pay grade. I know it can't be as simple as just adding a pot and cap between to the transistor and ground. First, I couldn't be that lucky, and second, the FF has two trans instead of one like the BF, so where would I connect it.

There's a diode between the transistor collector and base, that's what generates the fuzz.  Different diodes will vary the fuzz, you could add a switch to substitute another diode, or a rotary switch to substitute several different choices:  https://guitarpcb.com/product/roto-tone/  .  I think the standard diode is silicon, if so you could use a germanium or Schottky (lower forward voltage) or an LED, or two silicons in series (higher forward voltage), etc.  I'd breadboard some samples first to see which ones you like. 

Alternatively, here are some other mods:  https://home-wrecker.com/bazz.html
