Title: Warhead transistor question
Post by: glops on October 15, 2011, 04:25:44 AM
I have a populated board.  I accidentally ordered 5089s and no 88's.  I soldered the 89's in all of the 88 spots.  Does anyone know how this will effect the sound?  I may pull em and get some 88's before I do the wiring.  Or I'll leave em if you guys think it's ok....

Thanks!

Shouldn't matter I don't think. If you experience problems it could help you problem solve to remember.

5088's and 5089's are almost identical, and only differ really in their gain ranges. I think it should be fine.

Thanks, man.  Going test it out this weekend.  Such a beautiful board...
