Guild Foxey Lady (2 knob version)

[John Lyons]

Any one build this one and have any impressions to share?
Quite a bit different than the Big muff type Foxey Lady.

I posted about that in some of the Shi Ei threads.

Oh, ok...It does resemble the companion but this one has the emitter bypass caps.
I'll have the breadboard it, simple enough.

I was thinking of bread boarding this a few weeks ago.  Any ideas for 2N5133 substitutions?

[John Lyons]

The Companion and, similar circuits sound good with pretty much anything.
2N2222A, 2N3904, and even 2N3903s (mine are 50 +/- hfe!) sound good in there.
Anything around a lowish hfe should be good.

The bias network used will allow a range of hfe to work.  I would try >200 hfe ones to start.
