Skreddy tends to like it about 20% backed off from max. Turned lower, there will be a darker, tamer response. Turned all the way up, the Lunar Module will be fuzzier and more aggressive, but also noisier. You can get more brilliance and “hair” or make it darker and smoother, to suit your amp and taste. Warning: it can get noisy at low settings. Warning: it can get noisy at high settings.ĭials in the amount of bass going into the fuzz section, for everything from tight overdrive to full-voiced distortion to thick, nasty fuzz. Takes you from gritty, touch-sensitive overdrive all the way to aggressive, saturated, slightly sick fuzz. “unity gain”) or you can boost your signal for a fatter tone. You can adjust your Skreddy Pedal to roughly the same volume as your bypass signal (i.e. Huge range, from tight, aggressive overdrive/distortion to spitty, sustaining, slightly sick fuzz.Reliable and consistent-not touchy or temperamental.Great classic silicon fuzz tones but with control and tweakability.Using 3 transistors instead of 2, a pre-distortion bass control, and a post-distortion treble control, the Lunar Module yields a multitude of uses. We are currently doing bands, acoustic shows, and even some comedy shows. Unlike typical silicon fuzzes, which can sound thin and raspy, the Lunar Module has a dense sound that can be darkened to taste.Ĭlassic late 60's/early 70's fuzz tones with extra control, versatility, and added noise reduction. This is the Skidmark Lounge, a perfect place to have a private show or concert. Very satisfying and addictive "vintage" fuzz tone. Skreddy intentionally voiced this thing aggressively so it will cut through any mix. The Skreddy Pedals™ Lunar Module was designed for "that" certain silicon fuzz tone guitar solo I fell in love with on a best-selling 1973 album. Huge range including clean, overdrive, and distortion.But this makes me think of other uses for them.

I have drawers full of germanium transistors sitting around that may be useless as amplification devices. Indeed, it improves on a couple of weak spots the Dist+ had.

This mod transforms an all silicon transistor design to a hybrid MOSFET-Silicon-Germanium design.

#SKREDDY LUNAR MODULE SCHEMATIC DRIVER#

In effect, it is a fancy MXR Distortion+. The Skreddy Lunar Module and Skreddy Screw Driver are built to essentially the same schematic, with some different component values and transistor part numbers. The first op-amp stage brings the level up enough to produce good clipping from the transistors, and the second provides some gain recovery to compensate for how much the transistor diodes will clamp the amplitude rather low. Very satisfying and addictive 'vintage' fuzz tone.Unlike typical silicon fuzzes, which can sound thin and raspy, the Lunar Module has a dense sound that can be darkened to taste.Classic late 60's/early 70's fuzz tones with extra control, versatility, and added. So you're quite correct that it is NOT a Big Muff topology, either standard 4 transistor or op-amp. Skreddy intentionally voiced this thing aggressively so it will cut through any mix. I'm sure there are plenty sitting in bins around the world that are NOS, but unsuitable for use as transistors, making them a cheap purchase for anyone intending to use them another way.

In this instance, as the schematic indicates, they seem to be used simply as diodes, situated in between two op-amp gain stages.

If it is simply used for its diode properties (each leg of the transistor is essentially a diode), then it may still be quite good in that role. But that assumes it is being used as a gain/amplification device. If a GE transistor is leaky, or has the "wrong" hfe, then it goes in the "not suitable for fuzz" pile.
