Title: hey guys, me again.........pots
Post by: blues_boy on March 08, 2004, 10:36:50 PM
i wired up a fuzz (face) today and when the switch is one way i get sound and the vol control works but no fuzz......and wen the switch is the other way i get nothing. so i was wondering what would happen if i reverse wired the fuzz pot (wich it looks like i may have done). im fixing to change it....but was looking for some feedback..thanks guys.

Can you measure the voltages between ground and all three legs of both of the transistors? That should paint the picture needed for troubleshooting.

FuzzFaces are deceptive..... few parts.... but much inter-relation in their operation.

Take care,
