    New Production Germanium Transistors - What's The Scoop?

    I think the ones you can get from Antique Audio Supply are modern production. I'm not 100% sure, but they don't advertise them as NOS or such. And many of them have the same logo on them. https://www.tubesandmore.com/products/transistors?filters=4215a4258 I got some and they worked fine in...

    Stuff you wanted to know but were afraid to ask

    In general, you can use a non-polarized cap where the circuit calls for a polarized one--but there are often reasons not to, including size, cost and properties beyond capacitance (such as ESR, thermal stability, voltage ratings, etc.). In a fuzz circuit I wouldn't worry much about mlcc vs...

    Top Five '24

    I only built 7 in 2024, so picking a top 5 would be most of them. I'll just name the one that I think is notably awesome: the Chop Shop.

    capacitor deep dive

    I'm interested in hearing what people say, but it's not likely to change my approach (which is to use the cheapest option that fits on the pcb).

    Refinishing a poly guitar in nitrocellulose

    I think removing the finish would be a pain and not worth the effort. Also, I'm skeptical it would improve the tone or feel.

    Arachnid Octagon Question

    Octagon is just an Arachnid board with an EEPROM. Arachnid has no EEPROM included, so you'd have to order one of the existing ones, or get the custom one (or create your own programs).
