Breadboard kit · One transistor fuzz
Bazz Fuss
Christian Holmberg's fuzz, about the smallest real one there is: one transistor, one diode, one resistor, two capacitors. Rude, gated and synthy on the decay, where notes collapse rather than fade. This is the one you plug a guitar into.

Breadboard Kit
Solderless. The parts push in and pull back out, so you can build it, take it apart and build the next one on the same board. The off-board parts come with wires soldered on and the ends crimped to push into the breadboard.
Parts Only, Wired
Every component for this build and the printed bench guide, with no board, case, power module or battery. The off-board parts come wired and crimped for a breadboard. For refilling a breadboard you already have.
Parts Only, Unwired
The same parts and bench guide, with the off-board parts loose for you to wire. For your own breadboard, solderable or not.
Want to solder it and keep it? There is a permanent kit of this build.
What is in the box
- every component for the Bazz Fuss, bagged and labeled
- the off-board parts with wires soldered on and the ends crimped for the breadboard
- a full-size MB-102 solderless breadboard
- the breadboard power module
- a 9V battery and its connector
- jumper cables
- the printed bench guide for this build
- the hinged case it all lives in, with its label on the lid
A parts-only pack is the components and the printed bench guide, and nothing else: no board, case, power module or battery. Pick wired if you want the off-board parts ready to push into a breadboard, or unwired to wire them yourself.
Read the build first
The whole build is free on the Bazz Fuss guide: the parts list, every hole, how it works, the mods and the troubleshooting table. The bench guide in the box is the short version for the bench, with a QR code back to the full one. If you already have the parts, you do not need the kit.
