Hey Mars These things have a huge output. Apparently the FY-2 fuzz (Shin-Ei Companion etc) have a huge volume drop The FY-6 (Super-Fuzz) was made with it's 6 trannys, maybe to combat this problem? I know a guy that does an FY-2 replica taken off his own originals and he can't believe how loud these are either. I've also built the Leeds Fuzz by BYOC but it is really really quiet compared to this one.
The Super Fuzz sounds great, what's the output like? I got a Guyatone that gets close to the SF sound but is, volume-wise, dead in the chain.
