I got a bunch of AC187's left over from my last RangeMaster build.  The AC18's didnt work out as well as I liked, even at full volume, the trannies couldnt boost the signal any noticible amount so I slapped an OC140 in there!  So, I got a bag of AC187's doing nothing, anyone got any ideas?
Sticking a tube into a tube screamer to get good sound is about like rubbing yourself all over the weight stacks at the gym to get stronger - R.G.

Try 'em in a Folk Fuzz.
If nothing else, you can use them as the clipping diodes in that circuit.

  Rangepig...my little experiment .. multiply the gain using a Ge darlington pair and see if you get more noise than with one transistor...adjust to taste.
  Not all Ge's are equal, some just don't perform as well as others in any certain circuit.
Convention creates following, following creates convention.
