Axis Fuzz Kit
Based in the Roger Mayer Axis Fuzz, the Axis Fuzz kit is the perfect pedal to build if you’re a fan of Jimi Hendrix tone in songs as Bold as Love. It has a bright and aggressive tone and uses silicon transistors instead of germaniums for a more stable sound that cuts easily through the mix, making it perfect for your solo sections.
Thanks to its high input impedance the Axis Fuzz kit doesn’t load your pickups and retains a fat bottom end and smooth character. Two knobs, Drive and Volume, let you dial a lot of different tonal possibilities. Besides, you can totally shape your sound varying the input level with your instrument’s volume knob.
The Axis Fuzz Kit is based in the Roger Mayer Axis Fuzz, the effect pedal responsible for Jimi Hendrix sound in Axis Bold As Love. What else is there to say? The Axis Fuzz uses silicon transistors for a more stable behavior compared to germanium circuits. It has a bright and warm sound that can easily cut through the mix when used for solos, while retaining a smooth character and a fat bottom end. The Axis Fuzz can also be used for chords as it doesn’t get too messy.
The Axis Fuzz has a high input impedance that avoids the loading of your instrument pickups and preserving its original sound, with a combination of PNP and NPN silicon transistors. While it only has two knobs, Drive and Volume, the Axis Fuzz sound will change drastically depending on the input volume (so just with rolling back your guitar’s volume you can get a completely different sound) or your playing dynamics.

This is a great pedal kit. Overall though I am satisfied with this fuzz circuit, it works well with wah pedals in front of it and cleans up nice with the volume knob, I left the optional cap and resistor off and it does sound better IMO, Thank you.
