Hopefully I'll be getting back to my Matamp GT120 clone build soon. When I was first ordering parts I couldn't find a good source for the polystyrene caps on the Bass-Boost knob. I was going to sub polypropylene, but stumbled across some polystyrene yesterday. The place has all the exact values I need but one. I can go with a slightly higher or lower value, but not sure which to go for.
The values on the Bass Boost are:
390pf-820pf-1500pf-2700pf-4700pf-0.01uf
The 2700pf is the one they don't have. My choices are either 2200pf or 3300pf.
That should amount to slightly less or slightly more bass respectively. Given the other values, which of the 2 choices do you think would sit in the better spot for amount of bass in that position?
