And after much self inflicted termoil Mudfuzz built a Shin Ei FY-2

And here it is.


I built it rather quick and made a few errors [which I should have known better than to do] that drove me nuts for a bit. I used a 2N4401 and a 2N3904 for the transistors and used a GGG board. It sound's cool, real beefy square wave type of fuzz. At the moment the fuzz control [tone] doesn't do very much for bass [with flats any way] as it just effects the high highs. Also there is no control as of yet to turn the fuzz down so you have to use your volume knob on your bass to control it, I think I might end up ditching the tone control for a resistor and adding a input control instead.
