FuzzDog FuzzPup Jordan Bosstone Operating instructions

  • Hello, I've reviewed the user manual for the FuzzPup BossTone fuzz pedal. This document provides detailed instructions, a schematic, and a bill of materials for assembling the pedal. It also discusses an optional clipping switch for alternate tone. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about this device.
  • What should I do before starting the build?
    What is the purpose of pads S1 and S2?
    What happens if I remove the clipping diodes?

We’ve included pads S1 and S2 so you can easily add a switch to
take the clipping diodes out of the circuit. For a stock build you
should place a jumper between these pads - see next page.
C5 should lay flat on the PCB as shown in the cover image.

For a stock build you should place a jumper as shown.
Optional clipping switch
If you take the clipping diodes out of the
circuit you get a completely different crunchy
beast. It’s certainly worth trying the circuit
without them - test it before you add the
S1-S2 jumper. If you want to add a switch to
take them in and out, simply wire up a SPST
or SPDT toggle as shown. SPST will only have
two lugs of course.
