Sans Amp GT-2 -- ADVANCED


Sans Amp GT-2, Analog Amp Simulator


VERIFIED


tonepad_sansampgt2-2007.pdf 209.5 KB-- Sin Amp Rev.3.Feb.27.2007


Sans Amp GT-2 US$ 11.00


Analog amp simulator, capable of fenderish, marshallish, boogie-ish sounds.

This project is difficult and involves quite a bit more offboard wiring than the average stompbox.

The 2004 pdf is verified, if you decide to build it you're on your own, I will only answer questions from people who bought the pcb. Sorry about that.

Any E-B-C pinout NPN transistor can be used (2N5088, 2N3904)

*Thanks to Jeremy Lujacummins for tracing and drawing the original schematic!

The transistor should be 2N5088 (or similar).

Apparently Small Bear is now stocking the same switch pictured here. So look for it or email Steve to find out how to get it!

For offboard wiring instructions check the offboard wiring project page.
