I love the super fuzz.

[@HazeAnderson]

I found out about Schottky diodes when I was experimenting with passive ring modulators. That low forward voltage is a must for super small signals.

[@ChungasRevenge]

Thanks for the circuit analysis via LTSpice

[@percyhornickel]

Amazing sound and circuit explanation. Very interesting idea the potentiometer after the schottky diodes for clipping control.

[@kaistutz7067]

Great thing! I would really appreciate a video on diode clipping :)

[@erikvincent5846]

We do have the clipping diode video for the Big Muff Pi/Siberian project where we go between Schottky, Silicon, Germanium, LEDs, and even the body diodes in MOSFETs. Check that out over here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIObinSil5t_hZY

Ohhhhhhh! THAT was the fuzz I was looking for! 😱🤯🤣

Excellent as always!!

Well now I definitely know what to build first.

The supa fuzz had a switch for two sounds a friend had one in the late 60's sounded great who makes the best clone i dont build but love me some pedals

[@BryanDenham]

this sounds really nice, im new to this and ive tried to bread board a Super fuzz a few times now and it usually ends up not having much fuzz , im going to see if i can bread board this Meat grinder circuit i really like the tone control you have used. i do have one question , i was wondering if this mid cut/flat could work more like a mid cut/mid boost and have flat be around 50% ? thanks for the video i really enjoyed the sound of this circuit.

[@erikvincent5846]

The bridged-tee, at least in this configuration, is a passive filter, so it would only be able to cut. To do more of a boost, you'd probably need to look at a gyrator circuit, like the ones used on the Rock Bottom pedal. You'd be looking for a wide Q for that same curve, and just make it so that the potentiometer only boosts and doesn't cut.

[@Ian-Threaded]

Great stuff

[@MarkDally]

Looking at purchsing this pcb and some parts. Do you stock the Schotky diodes? And could I mod it mod it to have an expression pedal jack that brings in the octave effect if I wire the expression jack to either the Tone or clipping pot?

[@erikvincent5846]

We have Schottky's here: www.diyguitarpedals.com.au/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=306 but I am not sure if wiring it up that way would wire the expression pedal to the octave effect.

[@mikemybalzich3159]

on the form for the parts it says 56nf film cap but there are none on the website, is this a typo or will i need to go else where?

[@jooplin]

Just need to hear the name to know that I need this

[@jimbeaux4988]

I think i might try to build this one. I like the versatility. How different is this to the Punkin pi?

[@erikvincent5846]

Though both the Meat Grinder and Punk'n Pi are both fuzzes, the Meat Grinder is more of an octave fuzz while the Punk'n Pi is more of a straight-ahead fuzz, albeit an op-amp one.

[@jimbeaux4988]

@@erikvincent5846 I see, I did not catch the octave part. Going back, I hear it now.

[@danielsaturnino5715]

Hmmm not a fuzz fan myself. But thanks for video :)

[@ErebosGR]

Instead of "Tone", I think "Voice" would've been a more accurate label. Thanks for the SPICE simulation.

[@timidater4803]

what happened to the original dude that made pedals!!?

[@erikvincent5846]

Paul's still around. He is also working on videos as well.
