Germanium parts sell-off, Fuzzrite ed.
Posted: Thu Aug 17, 2023 6:42 pm
I'm posting this here first, because this community was the main/only REAL place I felt a part of a community.
I posted some of the photos to instagram, but I have more photos and have soooo many photos of capacitors, I don't even know where to post them all.
But fuzz pedal collecting, and then building saved my sanity, and probably more. And eventually I got bit by the building bug and have been lovingly hoarding a humongo stash of germanium and rare caps (much to my wife's annoyance at times).
The Fuzzrite was my BIG obsession, so I have a fairly-complete parts collection for building parts-perfect clones.
I will post a list of the count of the other parts I have separately, as it's somewhat unwieldy, and I have measured a lot of them since I counted it.... it's a long list.
Anyway, to the good stuff:
"short" Mosrite Knobs: 5
Transistors:
2n2613 x99: (81 long-leads, 19 pulls)
2n408 x138: (112 long-leads, 26 pulls)
.1uF Capacitors
Maroon "fat boys" .1uF: 34
Yellow "cigarettes" .1uF: 29
.05uF Tan ceramics from CRL:
"Matching" ceramics, not pulled: 2
Larger, .05Z (Z5U) closer matching: 7
BC 75U, 503Z: 5
Smaller, 50V: 99
Green ceramic .05: 52
I really am not sure how to price these, so maybe that will get this post kicked. I'd love to just ship it all to one guy who wants to build what I couldn't, but if I must, I'll think up fair prices for each part, which I semi-dread doing.
