Silicon/Germanium hybrid fuzz
Loosely based on an NPN interpretation of the Baldwin Burns Buzzaround circuit, Baracus is a medium-gain silicon/germanium hybrid fuzz. The first two transistors have been replaced with common silicon bipolar junction transistors (BJT), however Q3 remains a germanium to deliver the characteristic Buzzaround tone.
