This is a guitar pickup and controls simulator. When using the classics (tonebenders, fuzz faces, univibes, etc) its a known fact that they pretty much require being placed first in the signal chain. Their simple circuitry cant handle being downstream from our modern effects, in walks the Buffer Fucker. The little transformer has a primary winding with a center tap, this emulates the actual coil (single or bucker), the two trim pots acts as your guitars volume and tone controls, the remaining parts acts as the tone cap and any further capacitance and resistance given by your guitars internal wiring and patch cable. Placing this circuit at the input of your "classics" will allow you to set them anywhere in the chain.
