oh see i have it out for nte

my first second foray into guitar electronics (after building a simple bjt boost kit) was a germanium fuzz face. why germanium? thought it would make me sound like jimi i guess (it didn't, and years later where i thought i hated the fuzz face circuit it turns out i just needed to try a silicon one)
so instead of paying the per piece upcharge from the diy stomp box seller (which would also include a list of resistor values that would work for those specific transistors), i decided to order a bunch of nte germanium transistors from mouser
bunch of low gain, leaky, no good pieces of (*&^^%$%^$#
sometimes my cheapskate, diy attitude comes back to bite me Wink
