oh, is there a story about this friend of you, working on a jimi Fuzz ? that's interesting .. what did he manage on it ?
did he tell you about the gain range of those particular BC183 ? was it in 68 - 69 .. ?

hey, look ! pedal porn

Nice Fuzz Face $1,400. Yikes He says it's a secret he won't tell but he will be happy to build one for me he is a well known effects builder in the Seattle Area For a Silicon Fuzz (150 to 175 hfe for Q1) (300-350 hfe for Q2) will get you close, Q1 should be about 1/2 the gain of Q2

oh, is it kevin randall ? i saw a fuzz on his page, supposedly jimi's fuzz. and someone said that this fuzz was a later 70' fuzz. ^^ ..
we discussed it some months ago, briefly, i don't remember where.

yes, Q2 does all the job, and Q1 shouldn't exceed Q2.

by the way, for a very low gain germanium fuzz, i'm looking for a nice low gain silicon transistor ( arround 20-30hfe ... ) , i'd like to try something. But Joe Gagan is sending me a little cool hybrid fuzz for fun. they sound great.

Ha ha yeah good guess he told me he didn't want me talking about his stuff on the forums yeah he makes 2 different fuzzes, an octave, and the killer vibe I have one of those
