Hello
I just found this cool site.
I'm searching for building instruction for the Bumble Buzz Fuzz recently built by Union Tube & Third Man Records.
This is an amazing sound...



It would save me 300€ if you have it... :D
Thanks

Sounds like a Roland Bee Baa to me.

In the pix I've seen there are 4 silicon transistors and 4 silicon diodes. Looks and sounds to me like a Foxx Tone Machine.

Couldn't find any photos on a quick search, but seems we have three guesses so far. Beebaa, Tonemachine and a Kay Fuzz.
viewtopic.php?f=33&t=24153

All three have some resemblence by sound (minus the beebaa, which doesn't do ringmod/up octaves), but i'm still not completely convinced. A few gutshots would be appreciated...

So it could be Tone Machine related. If anyone has more, i'm definitely interested.
