Lastgasp Art Laboratories Green Monster Septic Fuzz

 Found this circuit from the DEFX files and thought this to be quite interesting. Discontinued circuit with noise for days. From the source:

The GREEN MONSTER septic fuzz (GM2)is an effect
pedal to create a septic distortion.

Characterized by a dirty, broken and rotten sound. Bad handling!

GREEN MONSTER is back with four knobs! There is an easy to use sound which the first GREEN MONSTER (ultra fuzz) was never able to create, but the sound is still putrifying! Genuine septic sound can be found here!


First one is close to the original...

 ...and the latter is with DEFX mods - adding a gain switch for stock and other...

  1. Sounds pretty cool with some dirt stacked after it... I'll give it a ponder

  2. I think there is an error in the original layout - there should be a link between row 1 and row 3 to the left of the IC. This is performed by the switch in the modded layout. Otherwise, I bread-boarded it and it sounds like the video.

  3. Is 1N5817 diode significant for the effect in any way, like affecting tone, or is it just for circuit protection and can be substituted with a similar one?
    Any info would be helpful

  4. Diodo de protección, se puede sustituir
