ESV Fuzz

The ESV Fuzz by BYOC is available in both Germanium and Silicon versions. The Germanium version uses PNP Germanium transistors and has a positive ground. It features vintage mojo similar to the original Fuzz Face, with modern conveniences such as an LED status light, DC adapter jack, adjustable bias, and true bypass. The kit includes carbon comp resistors, Vishay axial lead capacitors, and an adjustable internal bias for a vintage fuzz sound. The Germanium version can be powered by a normal standard 9VDC power supply intended for use with guitar effects, but it cannot be daisy-chained with other pedals unless they also have a positive ground.

The Silicon version of the ESV Fuzz kit has similar vintage mojo to the original Fuzz Face, with the added modern conveniences of an LED status light, DC adapter jack, and true bypass. It features extra beefy traces and solder pads for better continuity, easier soldering, and more abuse. The kit includes resistors, trimpot, capacitors, transistors, potentiometers, hardware, and hook-up wire.
