Hi

I'm building a superfuzz to PCB and working against this layout:

notice the 12K rating (as opposed to 1K8) for the octave trannies resistor to ground, as well as the Q1.  Anyone know if the later style units really did employ these? a quick look at:

would tend to suggest otherwise.  This shot is from a MKII black box board.  Maybe the orangies used the 12's?  I'd love to know as I'm trying to build to an orange box spec.

Thanks.

Hi Booga,

I tend to pay close attention, then still f**k up. That fuzz was sold long ago, but the pictures show 1K8 where the drawing has 12K. I'll see if I can fix that (after being wrong for a few years argh!).

I just looked at the orange and they are 1K8 as well.

Sorry and thanks.

Hey thanks very much for clearing that up.  While I'm here, are there any hidden 'off-board' extras to consider on the orange?  I notice a cap hanging off of the expnder pot on the black box.

Yours,

Sorry, meant resistor........ just woken up 8¬)

That's the 3K3 going to ground. You can see it on the Unicord schem:

My orange does not have it.

You wake up, and I go to bed! Good luck!
