First post here. Great forum. I already built a Folk Fuzz a while ago. Sounds great but the PCB I made and the boxing are all very crude... I'd be interested in the kit if you would ship to Brazil.

Common, we're one complete kit away from being able to build and getting this thing fuzzin'. And who will get us over the top? :?:

Yes! Yes! Super bump for the ONE PERSON whose going to, in the unmistakable sonic words of wisdom from Mr. Nigel Tufnel, "push it over the edge!" :mrgreen:

(Please read the following in Shakespearian prose)

"I beseech you, whoever you may be, to come forward and make your full kit intentions known, that you may, in one elegant motion, swiftly set us patiently waiting 24 numbered fuzz-a-holics free to frolic in the fuzz-folly build, undoubtedly known and revered in the kingdom of BJF as the FOLK FUZZ :!: :!: :!:

Built up the Folk Fuzz from the PCB last week (sourced all the rest of the parts myself). It basically sounds good but benefits a lot from a volume boost in front of it. I used all of the recommended transistors. Holy cow is that PCB tiny! Would be better for DIY experimentation if there was more room left for the transistors to be easily socketed. Actually, as far as it goes, board mounted pots are also not so great for experimentation because they get in the way of soldering and de-soldering. Also leave a little more room for the electro caps so they could eventually be laid down to better fit in the case. I stuck mine in a 125B and it just barely fits height-wise.
