Hi Guys,

Long time readers would know I designed a Fuzz pedal called Fuzzsilla a while back.



I only ever built 13 of them and they were snapped up by some of SA's top session players and bands like Dan Patlansky, Robin Walsh (used on Jessie Clegg's new record and several other studio sessions), Johnny De Ridder (Fokofpolisiekar), Carl Wegelin (Plush, JacSharp) even our own Alan Ratcliffe.

I get e-mails from all over about making another run, but I won't, not commercially, but I have enough parts kits to build up another 10 pedals, well bar the footswitches, I'll need to order in.

One of the beauties of design is that it's all on board parts, bar the battery snap, making the build very easy, even for a beginner.

I WON'T be offering enclosures, you'll need to buy and drill your own, though I can give you a rough drill plot and part number of the Hammond cases I used.

I need to cost it out, but my guess is the basic bare bones kit, all the parts and PCB will be R350.00.

Is it viable? Anyone keen?
    at that price , i would also take one
      Link to soundclip or video?
        Sounds good! Ive been looking for ideas for a new build anyway! So yes please!

            Thanks for the feedback and kind words guys!

            I'll investigate what parts I have on hand and what has to be ordered in, but I'm hoping to stick to the R350 mark, ex shipping.

            Cheers

            Matt

                  Bump ?
                  Any news on the switches Matta?

                    Hiya, I recently received a bunch of switches, but they flew off the shelf and into custom pedals I'd been working on. I have THREE left in stock so can put those kits together for now, the rest will follow in a month. PM me if you're interested and I'll send you more details.

                    Cheers

                        Update; Picked up my kit from the post office today ?; Matta sent it overnight. Looks top quality - Neutrik jacks and the lot.

                        Thanks Matta
