Multi-Bender Prototype
Was able to hammer out a quick video of my Frankenstein Bender today:

Yup. Can you tell I barely know how to use a computer? Took me almost 10 minutes to figure that out. And I’m a young buck! 36! I’ve grown up with computers.

For sure. To me, the sweet spot, for these transistors mind you, seems to be around 7.7 ish volts on Q3C. It crunches a little less there but the note bloom and sustain is better.
It’s nice having the test jacks and external bias for testing.

Goofed around some more today. I of course tried my hands at some “Truth” licks because that’s what got me started on the MKII/Supafuzz in the first place. There is some faux tape delay and cocked wah on here in addition to the Fuzz in “Supa” mode with the gain and attack rolled back a bit.
Take it easy on me, I’m no technician on the fiddle:

Re: Multi-Bender Prototype
Many thanks to you for the many helpful responses on DIY Stompboxes!
I have been going between the various settings and I really like the “Supa” configuration. Also, I’ve been keeping it at 8.2 v on Q3c. It seems to crunch the best there, have the firmest midrange, and quiet down greatly. 7.7 v sings like a banshee but gets a bit squishy when I chord.
