Hi guys.
I have a wonderful Tone Bender mk3 with trannies from SmallBear, but i'm getting tired of it.
I want a mk1 right now, so i was thinking about using those transistors.
I measured, and they read:
Q1 - 76 hfe, 68mA
Q2 - 122 hfe, 48mA
Q3 - 127 hfe, 70mA

Are they good for a mk1? (i mean good for a very good mk1)
(also, aren't they a lot of gain for a mk3?)
