3 from 5 Its a good kit, with a bad documentation

Id give this 5 stars... but the build documentation is rather bad. The bags the transistors come in are marked with the wrong codes, there is no manual, so you need to find out by yourself how the pedal works. Since its a rather crazy device, you never know if some things are a feature of a fault in the circuit.
Also if you take the drilled enclosure its a bit hard to fit all the things in, since the jacks and the led have been placed a bit too close together to fit the PCB between them.

5 from 5 Great pedal, changed volume pot to make it less sensitive.

Very good pedal. After using it for a while I changed the volume pot to a log 5k because it was to sensitive.

5 from 5 VERY GOOD FUZZ!!

I see no difference in sound to the original fuzz factory pedal. It was relatively easy to build the pedal (I already have some experience), but it has to be well planned to fit everything inside the box. I made a small change, added a 100k pot at the input to control the guitars impedance and better adjust the values with other pedals.

The factory is a great kit for beginners and experts. Fun to build and fun to play.

5 from 5 Easy build

It is a cool kit for beginners. A lot of cables some components and a lot of space. The sound is pretty destructed

5 from 5 crazy fuzzzzzz

Truly a factory of fuzzy sounds. Amazing packs, everything was spot on. This was my first project from musikding, I had some normal problems with short circuits but totally my fault. If youre new, my advise is to build it for a 1590BB enclosure, youll have plenty of space to put the pots and wiring without any problems. And since it is a crazy sounding device, you might want to search for fuzz factory settings online and you will plenty of resources to have fun with!

Great kit guys dont hesitate. It will also fit in a horizontal 1590b like the original.

Bonjour, montage facile, avec les schémas fournis. Faut fouiner un peu mais ça va, cest tout à fait à la porté dun soudeur, cest un peu du légo.
Tout est indiqué avec des numéros sur la carte pcb.
Sauf pour le sens du footswitch qui doit être horizontal (et après dans les 2 sens cest ok mais horizontal) pour les branchements.
Les résistances nont pas de polarité. Sauf les condensateurs, la diode et les germanium, mais cest indiqué.
Prévoir les boutons des potentiomètres non fourni, et prévoir un pince pour casser le petit pins pour plaquer les potards.

Résultat, pédale très intéressante, destroy, noisy et créative. Elle peut repousser (voir cr youtube) si vous préférez une fuzz face plus classique.
Jai pris lenvoie en lettre deutsch, ça a mis 15j cest très bien emballé, protégé.
En gros, je suis ravi, pour 40€ une factory créative dont je naurais jamais voulu mettre 200€ pour sa particularité.
Une bon exercice, ce fût mon premier achat musikding, il y en aura dautres. Merci à vous 👍🧡

5 from 5 Great pedal

Thus pedal is great, a nice fuzz with lots of knobs to tweak and make the sound you like. Building it was easy. I only had some trouble with making it work with the 3pdt board. But that is mostly because of my knowlegde about understanding the circuitry. I ended up with not using the board. But i had fun with building it and the sound is great!

5 from 5 Help?

Looks great, not a lot of part to assemble but I think I screwed with the wiring. I cant play with the pedal. Anyone to send me pics of the pedals inside??
