Planning on building up a Fuzz Face for bass.  Do I need to alter the input cap?  Are there any other considerations?

Thanks

Phil

i was always told that the saber tooth/wooly mammoth was a SI fuzzface i dont know if that is true but it might be a place to start

Thanks man.  In looking at the schematic on the fuzz face it looks like the input cap is 2.2uF.  I assume guitar frequencies are passing through that.  I'll compare the output cap of the saber tooth with the fuzz face.
Thanks Bud.

Looks like the Zygote uses either a 10nf or 100nf depending on the version.  The Sabertooth uses a 100uF as best I can tell.  Not the worlds best schematic sleuth.  Guess that'll be a good starting point.
