Selmer Buzz Tone

Syd Barrett’s hairy boost.. VERY WARM AND THICK. Perfect counterpart to Syd’s favourite amp settings, basically treble at 10. 

Perfunctory build on eyelet board, with external vero for transistor testing, using 2N2613 as per original.

Very surprised by the final tone, i really like it.. Sounds very nice.   
I broke out the wem copicat to have a better idea if it nails syd’s tone.

I also made a quick little excuse for a tune to test it further.. sorry for the hurried and far from great mix:

Melanie Wright-a Buzz-Tone tryout

Germanium Mosrite Fuzzrite

On eyelet bakelite board.. Those transistor were just a temporary arrangement and off they went once i scored some RCA 2N2613 and 2N408 (as per original pedal).

Here’s the video of the final build.

The sound of garage rock!
