There is a resistor missing. I went nuts for a while trying to figure out why Kit's schemo was showing one less part than what I was counting on my board, but I eventually found it. The original has an additional 100K resistor, directly at the input to ground (between INPUT, and the 8k2/3n3 junction). Also, all the 250p caps in mine are 270p.DIGI2Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05152727799982532963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-20274806718273387772017-07-05T11:44:40.036+01:002017-07-05T11:44:40.036+01:00And after writing the above I saw the FM-2 Beaker ...And after writing the above I saw the FM-2 Beaker Mod here :D<br />So, nevermind the mystery above, I think I'm able to modify my FM-3 with Beaker's mods, atleast at some extent.Jupnitski77https://www.blogger.com/profile/11582075821084193973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-49723722135196134842017-07-05T11:39:20.643+01:002017-07-05T11:39:20.643+01:00Hi!

Has anyone here had anything like that with this layout?<br />I changed the Fuzz volume pot to 500k and that didn't help. I also tried lifting the 100k pulldown resistor at the Output but that didn't do anything either. Everything should be as it is on the schematic (dated 28-06-2009). For transistors I used 2N3904's.Jupnitski77https://www.blogger.com/profile/11582075821084193973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-74733051156570154302016-04-24T03:21:49.646+01:002016-04-24T03:21:49.646+01:00This is now verified.

It is a DPDT footswitch, I've updated the layout.<br /><br />Keep in mind this isn't a boost that stacks on top of the fuzz, you get either fuzz or boost.
