FuzzDog FuzzPup EPic Boost is a compact pedal that accurately emulates the sound and playing feel of a vintage EP-3 preamp.

This pedal is perfect for guitarists who want to add a touch of warmth, clarity, and sustain to their sound. It can be used as a clean boost to push your amp harder, or as a preamp to give your tone a more vintage character.

The FuzzPup EPic Boost is easy to use, with just a few simple controls. The Volume knob adjusts the output level, while the Boost knob controls the amount of gain. The Tone knob allows you to shape the sound of the pedal, from bright and sparkly to warm and mellow.

Notes
C5 - power filtering capacitor.
This was added on the underside of the
PCB, but weve altered the enclosure
layout since this board was
manufactured and it no longer fits.
This can be added to one of the sets of V
and G pads in your build, depending on
which wiring method youre using.
If you have a side-mounted DC socket
and youre using the V and G pads on the
footswitch daughterboard, add C5 to the
V and G pads on the top edge of your
main circuit board, + leg to V pad. Check
the positioning of the board, pot and DC
socket to see how it’ll best fit within the
space in the enclosure. >>>
If you have a top-mounted DC socket
and youre using the V and G pads on the
the top edge of the main circuit board,
add C5 to the V and G pads on the left
side of the footswitch daugherboard,
+ leg to V pad. It should mount on the
underside of the PCB so it’ll sit next to
the body of the footswitch when
mounted. >>>
