So rubis915, will it really matter kung NOS or brand new run yung transistor? Kung pareho naman values nila..
Plus... sa NOS lang naman nagkakaron ng "leaks" diba? Kasi kung (example lang) 5 pairs out of a hundred ang good trannies, sa panahon ngayon.. that means meron na manufacturing defect, sa laki ng percentage ng defective sa isang run.
Going back.. kung maggawa ka man ng fuzzrite or buzzsaw or fuzz face clone for selling, consider me first on your list ha? i want that #001
Salamat for reading.. "take note" i'm not really good at this.. i'm talking from my experience and what i know and some what i read..
1. regarding nos at new "silicon" transistors sa tingin ko lang wala masyado pag kakaiba sa tunog
problem is yung ibang ginamit sa lumang mga pedal dati wala na or discontinued so..
hahanap ka ang substitute.. yun... meron nag pagkakaiba sa gain or frequency response sa
ginawa mong circuit.. in most fuzz circuit.. some favors the silicon kasi mas stable lalo sa
temperature.. iba tunog ng germanium pedal sa openfield concert.. vs sa music museum.. hahah
Ive read Keeley has reproduction of the old Fuzzrite...
and they are Limited edition 40 units only why.. kasi daw..
nakakuha sila ng NOS silicon transistor.. same as the original..
this will atest na .. they favor the NOS... here it is.. at $269
http://www.robertkeeley.com/2012/01/custom-shop-releases-60s-mosrite-fuzz-rite-recreation/2. regarding nos at new "germanium" transistors... yes meron din reproduction
ng mga germanium transistors.. again most boutique pedal builders "favor"
NOS againts new. iba daw talaga ang tunog... i think pag bago ang germanium
transistor.. sobrang liit ng leak nito or zero.. sa katagalan magleleak na..
parang battery lang... in time nag tutubig na... "parang" ganun...
3. Most manufacturer diverted to making silicon transistor mas stable at mas precise at mas maliit
but even 2 silicon that came from the same batch "may" sound different. maliit ang chances
na defective or magkaiba ang frequency responce ng 2 silicon in the same batch mas precise na kasi ang production ngayun...
i hope may nasagot ako sa tanong mo...
Lastly.. yes .. i have cloned the fuzzrite at fuzzface... working but not yet finished
pag natapos better.. ipapagamit ko muna sa mga gusto magpaclone.. mas OK diba..
itest mo muna ng mabuti...mahirap dipala swak sa setup mo...e nabili mo na..
lahat ng tweaky parts ilalabas ko sa case.. para madaming tone..
I'll post it soon... pwamis...
Share ko lang din...
Here's is something a "FUZZ freak" will watch to the end... 28mins of demo..heheh
If ever you got bored.. fuzz is not for you... IMHO.. hahah Enjoy!!!
I favor the MK1.5=Fuzz face..

natawa ko sa sinabi mo heheh Thank you!!!...
naging hobby nalang talaga yung tinapos ko.. True!
ang layo ng course ko sa work ko ...
