I think it will oscillate very quickly with those values. I've done it when I didn't have the right values, any reason you'd like to go that high?

Didn't see this one coming.  I must admit I'll never be able to afford a decent Les Paul so I assume now I'll never be able to afford a Mesa.
I knew it was true about some of the Henry years, but, as of late, I haven't heard or seen any issues. If we can build a triple or dual rectifier pedal, a mesa isn't in my future, but I don't play heavy metal. They look cool though.

Looks good. Is that the TS9 circuit?

What pm me the specifics of what's going on, we'll see if it warrants a call or someone else.

Yep, Hopefully I'll be good for the bumblebee. The goal was mainly to get vgs off matches for the tractor beam and other future phasers but I'm not really sure if it's good/bad to have high/low values. All I know is that I've read that the lfo sweep turn-around strength is good if they match to +/- 0.02v
That's about what I look for. The tractor beam is a great phaser build. I like the reverse setting.

I finally got the matched J113 set into my tractor beam and it sounds fantastic. The phasing is strong with this one :)

Flipper switch is the way to go.

the blues songwriters he's lifting lyrical content from probably were.
Oh I know, I can't believe how much they lifted. If my calculations are right, there are only approximately 12 original blues songs and every one covered them. I've been listening to bluesville on XM radio. They play early early recorded stuff, and even those guys were ripping each other off.

Nicely done. Those all measure relatively low, where did you source them?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I got them from Mouser recently. They are pretty much right in the middle of the range stated in the datasheet which is -0.5 to -3.0v.
Oh yeah, they're definitely in spec. I was thinking for phasers, that's just where my mind goes. You should have some good ones for a VFE bumblebee in there.

Nothing, that sounds accurate, does another one read about the same?

Ah. I should read more closely. And you're powering the jfet matcher of course? Do mind attaching some pictures of your set up?
