prolly not the BC182L

of course you could just sub another for it with similar specs

Everything bar the stomp switch and the case. Watch for the funky transistor, if you use a regular one you have to jiggle the components around, just wire the rotary switch where the 10nF (input caps) and 22nF (output caps) are

I'm sorry you thought an Orange tone stack in a fuzz was an original idea?

I have this schematic from the 90's......

Call it a tribute, seeing as nothing is original anymore

i didnt even come up with the name, the prototype customers did

I built one of these last month, my first pedal ever. Bought some BC182L's on eBay.
Also wired up a select switch that switches between Dark and normal.

Here's one unfinished:

hot damn, using those 630V mallory 150s. any reason why you didnt just use 25V small caps?

Haha! Well let's just say that you never should shop for parts under the influence.

I use those caps in high voltage tube amps, ha i guess you shouldnt Buy Under the Influence. They will work well tho.

Yeah I know they're really too much. If I remember correctly we picked the parts together and first went with other caps and then we looked up the original pedal and I think it stood somewhere that the original used Mallory's so we went with that, totally missed that they were 630V though. Ah well, looks really manly, only downside is that it's hard to fit inside a Hammond case now.

ull prolly do fine, no worries

I've built one already, this is the second one I do for a friend of mine

Mine has the same components though.
