I double checked everything many times but it doesn't work. The active components i used were CA3130 for the IC and 2N5952 for Q1. Everything is in place and neat, i really don't get what i'm missing this time. Any advice ?

Someone already built it using an NE5534 for the IC and an MPF102 for Q1. Other options for Q1 would be 2N5457 or 58. Socketing those components is highly recommended.

I guess that the IC and Q are the key components to make it sound like original? But the "2N5952" is almost impossible to buy here.. Is it irreplaceable? I mean if it is needed to be exactly this type of transistor or is some substitute out there?<br />For the IC - is some brand prefered or all of them work the same?<br />And thirdly: the other parts - resistors and capacitors - is it OK to buy them only by listed values or the result depends on types? (I mean electrolytic/ceramic and so on)<br />You are probably not used for such dumb basic questions.. :-) If the original were in local shop I would probably buy it, but for now this seems like easier way.. :-) Thanks in forward for your answers and time.qbasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14978308884175988507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-60673158075548835122015-10-16T11:36:10.061-04:002015-10-16T11:36:10.061-04:00thanks for the info!! this site is awesome btw!thanks for the info!! this site is awesome btw!jhaagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13348875706180747573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-52652092136333146002015-10-16T09:24:16.343-04:002015-10-16T09:24:16.343-04:00I used one off FSB.
