I have a question: does on your clone the pre and post clip knobs work well? On mine the Pre Clip knob does barely nothing (and I double checked all components and soldering joints, and everything is fine). Post Clip acts as it should.
Hello and I just re-checked (with a bass): same thing with mine, POST is fine, but PRE clip doesn't do much, according to my ears.

:idk:

I did some further tests, and PRE does also something, but it is very noticeable when you feed the Sooperfuzz with a loud or distorted signal, then it starts to make sense when you turn the knob ;)

I got some boards from MAE lately (YES and NO), so will soon put soon together my "pimped" YES clone! Anybody else got some these boards from MAE?

This is my "Perhaps?!" fuzz: built using MAE Business Card PCB, it's basically my own mix of Yes & No fuzz pedals.
Controls (left to right, top to bottom): Volume, Tone, Yes' More, Octave, NO's Thud.
Switches (left to right): 386 low-high gain, Q1 PNP/NPN switch, 3 position Yes' Splat (1nF, off, 10nF)

Stil trying out some transistor, but it's a messy, funny fuzz!
