Ultimate Fuzz Face Clone - NPN Germanium NKT713

Guitar Fuzz Effects Pedal Kit v2

This kit is based on the legendary fuzz face pedal. Instead of ultra rare germanium transistors, it uses genuine new old stock NKT713 Newmarket vintage NPN germanium transistors to give you that classic germanium fuzz, while keeping the cost down. This project is ideal if you're looking to get into guitar pedal building.

The v2 includes an indicator LED and a footswitch daughterboard to make assembly easier and cleaner.
