Ge Fuzz Face

This is a GGG NPN Ge Fuzz Face. Definitely my best looking and best sounding build so far.  The envirotex pour went really well.  I think next time I wont cut the holes out of the decal first and drill them out after the pour.  Also I used painters tape to tape the side jacks and some around the dc jack that got stuck under the envirotex shows.  Next time I am going to cover them with an extra piece of clear waterslide decal.

The extra bright LED is, well, extra bright, too much so, i sanded it a bit to dull it but it is still pretty blinding.  I will change it out when my next order comes.

It sounds absolutely amazing, has a nice range of milder fuzz to total destruction, buttery smooth Ge fuzz goodnes.  I threw the wah on and instant Hendrix.  Totally in love with this pedal.



I built it with the extra trimmer at R5 but I am not sure if it is really useful, I will keep playing with it though.  I built it -9V using NPN matched transistors from smallbear.

those graphics are badass!!! haha i love the badass sunglasses and the dead king!
also instead of changing out the LED why dont you just up the value of the CLR?

I thought about that, but I think a red led will look better anyways. I think I will save the superbright to have a hack at a light plate.
