This project started off as a shower thought, what if Part Garden, but all germanium. I laughed that idea off because there would be no way I would be able to get that many germanium transistors, let alone get enough that would work well together. But the idea lodged in my brain and I spent a few days mulling it over. I settled on that there are probably enough surplus germanium transistors out there that I could have one per build and then just revoice the rest of the circuit to be more "germanium like". I went through section by section, revoicing the remaining silicon sections to be softer and lower gain. If you crank everything up, and get the Texture cooking, you will still have a tonebender like rasp that will cut through any mix. But as soon as you back off that you have something that I've never done with the MAE line; Clear, articulate overdrive. You can even whip out your complex math chords and still hear every note. Through a Fender voiced amp you can even get some very con
