PARK: Fuzz Sound, Two Knob Version, tag board layout

Request for Phil - one tag board layout for the Park 2 knob fuzz sound.   I generally prefer to keep the links below the board, as it looks neater.  I don't mind linking two adjacent lugs on top, as you hardly notice it.

One suggestion for this.   The D*A*M Colosround Fuzz Sound has a few different values and an internal trimmer to fine-tune the fuzz.   They say that it's set at about 90% - so given that the pot is normally 100k, you could use a 10k resistor instead of a link under the board, or any value resistor of your choice. 

Check the MKIII component values table as a reference.  Stock values are listed below.

  1. Brilliant thanks Andy,
    So replacing the light blue jumper with a 10k resistor should mimic the trimmer pot at 90 % ala DAM Colousound?

    1. Yep. I’ll post a vero with the trimmer shortly.

  2. Maybe my favourite MKIII (strictly talking because Buzzaround is my favourite ever but it's not exactly the same... )

    Because... who needs a gain pot? Hahahaha

    1. I still like having the fuzz control there, even if it is a little redundant with some transistor setups.
