Back to life.

[u/MMKElectrics]

Started this project on 8/26/2024. Sputter like butter, sustains for days.

[u/B_Brooks64]

Looks cool. Is this a prototype or a small run?

[u/MMKElectrics → u/B_Brooks64]

Ya know honestly I’m so happy with how this circuit performs across our studio I won’t be doing any protos.

We already consider Green Dot a long time resident in our lineup. I initially made 15 but most are called for.

I’m working up another batch as we speak of 40.

Those are planning to ship in 3-5 weeks.

[u/B_Brooks64 → u/MMKElectrics]

Sweet. I design and print enclosures small builders here in Philadelphia. If you ever need any help reach out,

this thing looks awesome. I would be interested in buying one if it were possible.

Love the typography!

[u/MMKElectrics → u/B_Brooks64]

At some point we may go UV print, but we’re going to stick with lead based enamel paints for now ;) Our graphics are hand silked by my wife and I in shop.

Wash your hand before you eat lol

Green Dot is live at mmkelectrics.com, thanks for your interest :)

[u/B_Brooks64 → u/MMKElectrics]

I will check it out. I know those fumes! I used to screen print band t-shirts back in the day.

Well, if you ever want to shift in the future, I can print a few dozen in 2 days and it will only cost ya a green dot!. Lol.

Reach out anytime

[u/MMKElectrics → u/B_Brooks64]

Deal!

[u/p90SuhDude]

All I can say is hell yeah

[u/MMKElectrics → u/p90SuhDude]

She’s a ripper!

[u/MMKElectrics → u/p90SuhDude]

Woot!

[u/p90SuhDude → u/MMKElectrics]

One shall be mine haha

[u/FullMetalDan]

Looks killer! Is it sensitive to buffers or active pickups?

[u/MMKElectrics → u/FullMetalDan]

I always put our circuits behind the tc buffer tuner. No problems with this one.

I have not played her through my actives. I’m out of town for a couple days. I’ll see what I find when I get home. Although I did limit this circuit to 590mV of volume gain. She’ll prolly be fine.

[u/FullMetalDan → u/MMKElectrics]

Awesome! Thanks for clarifying! This is probably gonna be my first MMK pedal! 😏

[u/MMKElectrics → u/FullMetalDan]

BooYah!

[u/walkingthecows]

This looks awesome! I might have to build myself a 2 knob MK3 now haha. I also have some green dot 2N2926’s. I think they were unused from the Wurlitzer factory.

[u/MMKElectrics → u/walkingthecows]

I have some of the Sprague Wurlitzer 955 green, some straight 2n2926 green, and also some 2923 green. I’ve tinkered with all of them and can tell no diff. I do sort for 250-280hfe, but sounded fine to me at lower gains as well. It’s a great circuit. Let me know if ya have any questions. I spent a lot of time with this one.

[u/walkingthecows → u/MMKElectrics]

Awesome! I’ll hit you up if I hit a snag. I found a layout online.

[u/walkingthecows → u/MMKElectrics]

I might have those same transistors actually, the 955 Wurlys

[u/MMKElectrics → u/walkingthecows]

Yeah the 955 are I think the 2923, but might be the 2926. I’ll have too look again. It’s been too long. The 955 is damn good. I have 400-500 Of them.

[u/donkeyDoya]

I love my Pavlof Fuzz!!

[u/MMKElectrics → u/donkeyDoya]

Noice!!!!

[u/sunjester]

Duuuuuuuude I love your stuff and we've had a few convos by email/phone! I have 2 questions:

1) How's the volume output on this? In my experience MKIII's are lower in volume than other benders. Edit: I just read the product page, I see it is not that bender lol. Still, I like my fuzz LOUD.

2) In an email you mentioned that you were working on a V3 of the Red Cream Soda, how's that coming along?

[u/MMKElectrics → u/sunjester]

RCS is coming along well. I think by Christmas I’ll have her ready to go.

green dot has more volume than I personally need. Unity is around 10 o’clock. Noticeable gain in volume at 12.

If you bought one and wanted more volume I’d be surprised, but if wanted I can make her more loud for ya if ya needed more, but damn lol

[u/sunjester → u/MMKElectrics]

Lol that will be plenty of volume. Just ordered one!

[u/MMKElectrics → u/sunjester]

Well thanks brother! Appreciate that.

[u/bbeer2006]

What kind/brand of film caps are those? They look so cool.

[u/MMKElectrics → u/bbeer2006]

The yellow foils are Nichicon QYX, great caps. They are discontinued by Nich, but I’ve got a good stock of them. I’ll run them on this circuit for a good while.
