Today, I walked by the tower that was posted here yesterday.

Picked up a first generation 50w last week for $115, wanted to do something different, thanks to the others on this sub for the idea.

Npd, finally finished my Fuzz build. It's based on the classic Foxx Tone Machine with some tricks. The purple footswitch is a momentary octave up, the 2 toggles on the right are voicing options, the classic tone circuit, a bass heavy or bee in a tin can sound.

Oceans 11 Footswitch Options are so handy. Ended up making a 2 option switch. Details etc in comments.

2 hours of troubleshooting this Fuzz Factory that stopped working only to find that it was a faulty barrel connection on my power supply. Rechristened it as the fk factory, gotta keep it PG.. megΩman unrelated. Moral of the story, check your cables first!

The Thin White Duke. Based on the sun face, used some NOS MP20s from 1980/81. Sounds killer, nice tweak on ths normal Fuzz Face.

Another Jfet Boost, someone asked for gutshots of the last one , this one is neater!

My Fantastic Foxx fuzzes, prototype left, final product right. Momentary octave, 3 customisable tone options, tone caps are socketed and can easily be swapped or replaced with different values. I've put a lot of thought into these. Any suggestions for further options or improvements?

Progression. My 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th builds. An Acapulco Gold clone, TS 808 with bass boost, 1st proto Foxx style fuzz with custom tone options and momentary option for the octave up and finally, the final version of that Fuzz. Components for the tone circuit are socketed and can be swapped easily.

I thought some people might find this interesting. I picked it up around 10 years ago, a promo/press copy of the amazing 2001 release Amnesiac. The most interesting part to me is the sticker. I miss scouring 2nd hand CD fairs/shops for stuff like this!

A sweeter tone. I'm sorry. J-FET unity gain buffer in a maple syrup sweet tin. Pretty self explanatory. I'm bored of dealing with Hammond style enclosures. The 2nd power jack is just to run power through to another pedal a la some tuner pedals.

Greenn Machine, Foxxy style fuzz V 2.0., now with voltage sag. The knob at the bottom will be on the opposite side from now on

Small transparent J-Fet based boost in a 1590lb that I swirl painted, tight squeeze to get it all in!!

My newest build, based on a Phase 45 and my favourite character ever. Sounds quite lush and warm, overall quite happy for a relatively unplanned build.

First build in almost a year, life's been too busy. Escobedo Duende boost per tagboard effects vero layout. Used up the last of my j201s and the last of the BSCustomKnobs knobs that I have left, sounds killer. I've done probably 6 of these in various formats or in dual pedals etc, killer booster!

New board, Rockboard Stage with HC as I'm emigrating and need something sturdy. Will put the chain in the comments. Cheers.

25$ Fuzz Madness. Took a 25$ Behringer and added a voltage sag/starve control to get a gated/dying battery glitch sound. Surprisingly cool fuzz to begin with for the 💰, mod has opened up a lot more possibilities. I believe its based on a Boss unit that was a modded Super Fuzz possibly?

Finally got around to building after moving across the pond, brought some pcbs with me. This is a Fuzz Dog pcb based on the Earthquaker Devices Talons. I changed a few resistor values and got custom knobs to match my enclosure from BSCustomknobs on Etsy, such nice stuff. Thoughts below.

Been messing around with this the last while. The fuzz face is going, building a Foxx style octave fuzz to replace it and an Earthquaker Tentacle. Waiting on a Sub'n'Up mini and Levitiation Reverb. The 3 builds are based on a TS9, Acapulco Gold and a Brian May style Treble Booster.

Version 2.5 of my Foxx style pedal, my original versions have been posted here before. I usually don't do battery clips but am trying to make a more production friendly /standard version, so no top mounted jacks. 2nd footswitch is a momentary octave up. Toggles select octave or 3 tonal options.

New kit, got it for a steal, very impressed so far but haven't had a lot of time with it! Can anyone advise me on expression pedal options please? Earthquaker recommend the Moog option but if anyone has other suggestions I'd love to hear them!

Board update, added an Earthquaker Levitation reverb and TC Sub'n'Up. I swap the xp boost out for either a mini Fuzz Face or a homebuilt treble booster. Covers a lot of ground, quite happy with it. I need to sort out the wiring a bit, not using an effects loop anymore, still figuring out the chain.
