Here are pedal kits that are/were offered by Fuzzdog in the UK. We take no position on the kits and PCBs that Fuzz Dog makes available. We have purchased a number of PCBs from Fuzzdog in order to ensure that we have certain vintage pedals available for rental. We do not believe in undercutting existing pedal manufacturers who come up with original pedals at reasonable prices. Fuzzdog offers many such pedals in order for people to get a "cheaper" version of a pedal that's currently being offered for sale. We will not rent such pedals despite the fact we've accidentally purchased a couple of such pedals.
If you want a pedal that makes a certain sound and that pedal is still in production, we advise you purchase that pedal. While it may seem cheaper to build the pedal yourself, this does not include the price of the soldering station, or the other incidentals that you have to get in order to do the actual work to assemble a pedal. Now, there are certain pedal manufacturers that charge exorbitant prices for pedals that have very little to them - they cost maybe $25.00 in pieces, and come from electronic schematics that were worked out long ago. We have little sympathy for such pedal manufacturers and their prices. We believe it is not unethical to clone and make available such pedals when those manufacturers are demonstrably preying on potential customers' lack of information.
Despite our moralizing and finger-wagging, if there are vintage pedals that you're looking to get and they're either not available or perhaps they're only available because they are rare and expensive, we think it's entirely reasonable to not want to spend stupid amounts of money for something that only might, from an audio standpoint, give you the sound that you want. Vintage pedals are dying as the components burn up, and as estates have stuff that get pitched in the trash. In addition to vintage pedals, there are other cases wherein a pedal was made with a very small distribution (like the Kendrick Amplifiers "Buffalo Pfuz"). There are other cases where a certain model of pedal was made in a small batch for a particular artist (like the "Brian May Treble Boost"). In these cases as well, we endorse the recreation of pedals and/or effects that have been effectively abandoned by the original manufacturer.
In any event, there are a number of pedals that are interesting that are no longer available from the manufacturer that developed them. In these cases, you would be well advised to either rent our version, or, if you wanted to make a bigger investment, to build your own.

This is a list that was pulled originally from a British site with a discussion thread called The Fretboard: Poodle Pedal Parts Emporium Decoded. This list also contains our most recent review of the site and the "clone" pedals that Fuzzdog offers (As of 02-Jan-2018). In having added to this list we've doubled it. The exciting part is that this means that since May 2014, Fuzzdog has practically doubled the inventory of offerings available to build pedals.
We are recreating and providing the list here (and occasionally updating it) for no other use than for us here at Thermionic Studios to reference. It may also serve to help provide guidance if someone is looking to recreate a vintage pedal that's no longer in production and might find the means for doing so here.
As you review the list, you will see that there are cases where there is no corresponding original pedal name. In those cases where there is not a match, it means that:
- None was provided by from the original discussion thread, or
- New pedal kits have been created and offered by Fuzzdog since the original posting, or
- There are no hints from the text at the Fuzzdog website helping us clue into which pedal is being cloned,
- Despite our attempts to determine which is the original pedal, we have not been able find a match, or
- It may be a Fuzzdog original and therefore has no "match".
If you're aware of a match that we don't have listed, please contact us and let us know, we'll be happy to give you credit!
