This didn't work the first time, I hope it does now.

Edit: for some reason it won't let me copy text into a post.

Oh well, short version of the detailed report I wrote is that I built the FP-1 version and it works. It sounds like a fuzz going into a manually swept phaser.

If you build it watch out for the resistor between the base and collector of Q2. Its a 470k not a 470 ohm.

Does the foot-swept aspect of it control what is filtered out of the fuzz sound or does it control what portions of the spectrum are fuzzed?  I'm still trying to figure this one out.

I think it is filtering what is fuzzed. There doesn't seem to be any clean aspect to the sound at all, except the clean sound that is blended in by the balance control. What is called the Fuzz Volume is just the overall volume of the pedal.
