Post I almost cried at band practice tonight....
I finally get to see my pedal board for the first time in 3 weeks :love: (went 2 weeks without band practice :mad: )... and of course the first thing i turn on is my lovely BYOC LB Fuzz :love: :love:

but what comes out of my speakers isn't fuzzy goodness :o :shock: :? :(

instad i'm getting a weak ass just barely clipping noise that resembles a guitar signal :hypno: :mad: :cry:

get home after band practice and open her up and everything seems ok... I start tugging wires, checking that no connections are shorting and still it was just :cry:

so on the verge of :poop: I went :poke: every component to see if there were any loose and...


HA!!!!!! :eyebrows:

I found the resistor that was causing the problem... upon further examination, I noticed that I had done a PISS FUCKING POOR solder joint on one side :facepalm:

fixed it so now im all :love: :love: :love: again.... CSB!!!!!!


TLDR: my homebuilt fuzz didn't work, but i fixed it at home :red:

That'll learn you to solder real neat and thorough!
