I can only build as many as I can find high-gain transistors.
Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been really busy working on a few things. Such as... Stingray Bass preamp, 2-band eq version. Values from a 1976, pre-Ernie Ball instrument. No nasty ceramic caps in the audio path! This Riot clone, which is aptly named Violent Direct Action. Flower of Evil germanium fuzz. Based heavily on the Monolith Oracle, but with psu filtering. This one is full of carbon comp resistors, Wima and Mullard C280 ('tropical fish") capacitors and a pair of Mullard OC76 transistors. It's essential in this circuit that one of the transistors is very high gain, at least for a germanium transistor. Finding one with a hfe of around 300 is not at all easy, but a bulk buy of 60-odd OC76s yielded at least ten.
