Hey All, I got my Ungula built and it sounds pretty terrible, like sound is struggling to get through and there's a dying battery involved.
I audio-probed it, there are some spots I noted to check again later. The tone and shift pots both sound odd, like they're adding and taking away volume at certain points though that may just be due to the bass/mids coming through and fading out. There's very little volume available, with fuzz and volume dimed my clean signal is still a bit louder.
I checked the collector voltages on the 2N1308s that I got off ebay. 1.27 on Q2 and 7.71 on Q3, yikes. Unfortunately I don't have the leakage or HFE, but that seems like there must be an error elsewhere based on those, unless I just need to buy some subs from a more reputable source. Here's what I got: https://www.ebay.com/itm/192918001829
