adrian	Re: Rangemaster problems. Mark- Perhaps a bad transistor then? I assume you mean the collector voltage? Give it a spin with a different transistor. It is a pretty subtle circuit and seemingly quite amp-dependant. I'm still not sure what I think of it. It really wasn't good into my Traynor Guitarmate combo (vox Ac15-like) but was great for my Tiny Harmony radio-amp. I'm still trying to determine which cap values I like best as well as which Collector Voltage. Let me know what happens! - Adrian
