This is the '71 Fuzz, which I finished yesterday.
I used metallic green, vibrant purple and vibrant orange paints, as well as some purple glitter, to give the pedal a '70s feel. I did have some trouble when the internals of the 1 mega-ohm pot set on fire (!), so I had to use a 500 kilo-ohm pot and some resistors instead, which limited the range of the pot (so it's really like a one-sound pony!). Nevertheless, the sound of the pedal is really good, and there are some interesting ideas that I could incorporate if I wanted to make this pedal again.
Sound sample of my vintage pedalboard (including this pedal):

(The '71 Fuzz on its own is the second sequence of chords, with the first being a clean guitar signal.)
