Help needed with Colorsound Wah Fuzz

Post by Sk10 »

Hey Guys, I need help with an old (Carlsbro branded) Colorsound Wah-Fuzz I have.

The Fuzz circuit sounds really weak, harsh and thin: you have to hit the strings really hard to get it to distort....

I already checked the PCB thousand times, measured the resistors, replaced the electrolytic caps... without any result
Even replacing the transistors didn't make the fuzz sound better... :smashed:

These are the voltages I have at the transistors:
(Battery measures 9,5V)
Q1
C 3,15V
B 1,30V
E 0,66V

Q2
C 1,30V
B 0,60V
E 0,00V

Any suggestions?
