Are those mini carbon comp resistors? Never seen such diddy resistors before.

Those are carbon film resistors. They're 1/8 watt instead of the common 1/4 watt resistors we use.

There's a difference between Carbon Comp and Carbon Film resistors.

Carbon comp resistors, if I'm getting this right, have a dark brown body. CF are light brown, and MF are blue.

And, if I'm getting this right as well, they mostly make a difference in tone at 400V, in valve amplifiers. At 9V, they mostly make a difference in the noise department. This is all AFAIK, mind you.

[jkokura]

yes.

[nzCdog]

yes.

"Yyessss" more like this: (Several yesses, but best one at 40s)

[cjkbug]

whats the one with those axial sprague cap's?

[Haberdasher]

looks like the new cherrybomb, methinks

[Bret608]

It looks like a Cherrybomb with 2n3565s, to boot. I wonder how that sounds compared to the usual BC109s?
