Great video. Fuzz pedals are simple but small details make huge differences....

Dude!! You should do a play through on every pedal you break down and you can explain the sounds that we are hearing as pertaining to the circuit you just went through.

I would love a whole video on breadboarding. There’s a certain intimidation factor there that doesn’t exist for PCBs, and some instructional info would be way cool.

Best video of yours, that I’ve seen, so far! Great work! Glad to actually make much more sense out of things, than normal. <br><br>Cheers, Mang!

Awesome video and breakdown Joe - I really appreciate how thoroughly you approach everything. I learned a lot and look forward to more material like this. Cheers from Maine!

Ah dang I was hoping you'd do the output cap and bright cap in circuit together! This was a really cool breakdown, hope to see more circuit investigations and breadboard experiments!

I just finished on my breadboard, and took me some time to troubleshoot because I had the A495 852 (~100hfe) and A495 Y (~180hfe), which have different pinout. I found the Toshiba transistor that Josh used in the video, maybe I'll try those too. Really fun build, it was my first pedal. Now I want to make the pedal using a tin box that I found which has a japonese woman on it (to remember the theme from the jhspedals video) :)

Great video, a demo including the missing coupling cap would be interesting.
