Transistors

OC141 NPN germanium transistors. The OC141 is a popular NPN for fuzz pedals and boost effects. This transistor is in a glass SO-2 package with long leads commonly found on germanium transistors. The NPN polarity allows for use with standard pedal power supplies. The dot indicates the collector lead.

AF101 PNP germanium transistors made by Telefunken. The AF101 is a PNP transistor recommended for mixer and IF stages and works well in effects that use germanium transistors such as fuzz and boost pedals. This transistor is in a unique SO-2 package and features the long leads commonly found on germanium transistors.

OC46 PNP germanium transistors. The OC46 is a popular PNP for fuzz pedals and boost effects. It can be found in vintage electronics and modern fuzz pedals. This transistor is in a black glass SO-2 package with long leads commonly found on germanium transistors.
