1/11/2024 0 Comments Germanium transistorPlease note that we don’t supply the other parts you need for a complete build in this kit, we are supplying high quality, tested transistors to help ensure your project has the best performance and tone possible. The AC121 Toshiba transistors are best suited for Q2/Q3 positions, and are the higher gain of the set will have “just the right leakage” for Q3 in a Tonebender. The ACY23 transistors have extremely low leakage, and a perfect gain range for “Q1” in a fuzz build. You will receive five selected transistors – not what is pictured! (actually, I always put in six, just on the off chance one is noisy, which is rare anyway) ***Please note that the picture shows the tester and a bunch of transistors while sorting. Gain of each transistor is clearly labeled. The transistors have been selected and checked to determine gain (Hfe) and leakage (Icb). Excellent to fine tune a fuzz or make a killer Rangemaster! These have a brighter, more aggressive tone than the ACY23. An MP42b USSR-made transistor, also in the 60-80 gain range.Two European made ACY23 Germanium transistors.Two Vintage Toshiba brand AC121 Germanium transistors – these are the higher gain range of the kit, 110 -140. *We will be offering a finished voltage inverter add-on soon* These are the choice for “classic” Fuzz project builds, generally battery-powered, as they require a positive ground circuit. JDM Pedals is now offering a selection of excellent quality, vintage PNP Germanium Transistors for your DIY Fuzz pedal build.
