the schematic asks for a 600:600 transformer   ie OEP1200 transformer


however from building some aby isolation pedals   i have some

42TM018-RC 
left over

http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/449/XC-600134-205894.pdf

these are 550:500

they are used for the same purpose to use multiamp setups eliminate ground loop hum,

these should be ok in the Lovetone clone?

The little wax-jobs are rated 300Hz bottom. Two octaves off a guitar's bass.

They *may* do considerable better, but it depends on the circuit.

If the wax-irons are in your hand, try them. Should not smoke. May be full guitar bass, or may be bass shy, depending on the schematic you did not show/link.

> here is the OEP 1200 1:1 600 Ohm low profile line isolation transformers  data sheet link

That's quite comparable to what you have in hand.

Try it.

just wish to confirm that the 42TM018-RC  worked great on my build, just had to make sure they were connected correctly as the connections were a little different to ones specified.
Small Bear sells them too!
