Adjusting the Trimpot
There are rumors circulating the internet that this trimpot controls the amount of octave
effect that mixes in with the fuzz. This is somewhat true, but keep in mind that if you
used this trimpot as such, it can cause an unusual “noise gate” effect at the end of each
note on certain settings. Ideally you want to set this trimpot so that it produces the most
noise. This may seem counterintuitive, but this will produce the longest sustain and the
best sounding fuzz. This will almost always be dead center on the trimpot's rotation
(noon) or just slightly off center. But ultimately, it's up to you....just trust your ears.
