Operating instructions

FuzzDog Hype Fuzz / Destructor Drive is a versatile and powerful fuzz pedal that can deliver a wide range of fuzz tones, from classic to modern, subtle to extreme. With its three distinct modes - Hype Drive, Destructor Drive, and Destructor Bass - you can dial in the perfect fuzz sound for your playing style and genre.

The Hype Drive mode is a classic fuzz sound, with a smooth and creamy sustain. The Destructor Drive mode is a more aggressive fuzz, with a higher gain and a more pronounced mid-range. The Destructor Bass mode is a fuzz specifically designed for bass guitar, with a lower gain and a fatter sound.

Jumpers are required on S1 and OSC if you aren’t
including them. See page 5.
The BOM shows the standard HYPE DRIVE fuzz.
Jumper required on S1 - see page 5.
You can also make a Destructor Drive or Destructor bass:
Destructor
Omit Q3**, S1 empty - no jumper
Destructor Bass
Include C5*, Omit Q3**, S1 empty - jumper (page 5).
Oscillation fun
***Adding the OSC pot lifts the fuzz circuit from ground,
causing all kinds of chaotic wibbling. Fully CCW you will
have normal grounding. The original uses a 100KB pot
for this but it’s only useful in the first part of the turn.
MESS THINGS UP WITH COMBO BUILDS...
See page 6.

Snap the small metal tag off the pots so
they can be mounted flush in the box.
You should solder all other board-mounted
components before you solder the pots.
Once they’re in place you’ll have no access to
much of the board.
Single circuit build jumpers:

Jumper S1 as shown above in red.
Destruct Bass
Jumper S1 as shown above in green.

No jumper required.

We’ve made it really simply to build a combination of any two or even all three of the
circuits with a single toggle switch.
Destructor / Hype
Omit C5, use an ON-ON toggle switch.
Left = Destruct, right = Hype
Destructor / Destructor bass
Include C5, omit Q3, use an ON-ON toggle switch.
Left = Destruct Bass, right = Destruct
Destructor Bass / Hype
Include C5 and Q3, use an ON-ON toggle switch.
Left = Destruct Bass, right = Hype
Destructor Bass / Destructor / Hype
Include C5 and Q3, use an ON-OFF-ON toggle switch.
Left = Destruct Bass, centre = Destruct, right = Hype

It’s a good idea to drill the pot and
toggle switch holes 1mm bigger if
you’re board-mounting them.
Wiggle room = good!
Recommended drill sizes:
Pots 7mm
Jacks 10mm
Footswitch 12mm
DC Socket 12mm
Toggle switches 6mm
