Then you can use most any fuzz.

Got a schematic?

It's the fact that the chassis, and therefore the ground/shield of the cable shares "positive" 9v. That means in a daisy chain you'll have shorted 9v to ground once you hook up the rest of your pedals. 

I should add I "helped design" (you can't really say you designed old fuzz clones) the new 65 Amps Colour Face and Colour Bender pedals. Both are PNP positive ground circuits. I even talked to the head engineer Bob at Dunlop just to hash out what power supplies they made that are compatible/incompatible. Even if you used a DC brick with ONLY positive ground pedals, it would work but if both chassis touched, or they were touching a metal pedalboard, it would short out.

hm. But a voltage converter like Jordan posted, or for example a polarity conversion cable (like the ones that come with most power supplies these days) would solve it......?

The large version does. The mini version has a power jack.
