I am working on a germanium Fuzz Face for a buddy and decided to use Scruffie’s layout with an onboard MAX1044 to change it to a negative ground effect.

Here is Scruffies notes on it

Power Filtering included, Polarity Protection, Input Level Trim (To adjust like you would your volume knob) Onboard Bias Pot to adjust for different climates and optional smoothing caps for both transistors (10-100pF range).

I am building it to the Analog Man Sun Face NKT275 specs as in this schematic in red. I used metal film resistors and audio grade electrolytic capacitors (even for power filtering just to keep it consistent and the gold caps looks awesome lol)
