- This is my full video of the Fuzz-A-Tron fuzz pedal from Third man Hardware. This pedal is perfect for people looking to get into diy electronic builds. It was first introduced at NAMM 2024 and I had to order one right away.
Here are some tools if I used for the build. These are affiliate links so if you do use them thanks, it helps me make more content.

Built mine yesterday. Apart from initially failing to connect the spare capacitor leg to lug 1 of the footswitch, so having no bypass, everything went smoothly. It was a fun project and definitely a step up from the Notaklön! Tempted to get a breadboard and try building some circuits next.
That’s awesome you did this build too :D. I was having issues with my bypass as well after i did the video. I still have to check and see if I have a cold solder or something. What other types of circuits are you thinking? It’s a lot of fun build audio gear :D
@@nickiden watching the video I *think* you may have made the same mistake as me. You passed the leg through the hole in the chip board and soldered it but didn't then pass the leg through the second lug on the switch. I may be wrong though.
As for circuits, Josh from JSH has started a series on simple boost and distortion circuits using coppersound breadboard. I am thinking of following that, trying some mods, then maybe making up a pedal based on that. I think there are places you can order bespoke pcbs.
@@paulburton5150 that’s awesome. I’ll have to check out that JHS series for sure. I think you’re right. I may have missed that step so I’m going to go back and double check.
i really wanted to watch this but the video quality is really rough
Sorry about that
I don’t see anything wrong with the quality. You can clearly see what he’s doing. This isn’t an instructional video, so you don’t need to see the component values. Sure, it’s not 4K, but come on. It seems to me, this is more for entertainment, and I thoroughly enjoyed the build. Keep it up. Next, you could try a point to point wiring scheme, where everything is floating between components so it’s like a neat spiderweb. Look it up, it’s a pretty fun way to practice soldering.
@@maksqwe1 thank you :D. I will totally try the floating method you mentioned :D
