Swart STR?

Post by Dingleberry »

Hi. Has anyone of you have had a chance to peek inside one? Some gut pics float around the net and what I've read it's mostly a 5f2a with 12dw7 driven reverb. I've been fiddlin' around with 5f2a circuit lately and would be nice to incorporate reverb into it. I don't have access to swart STR so I can't reverse engineer it... Those gut pics are not very HD, but something can be seen. Any swart STR owners?

The dw7 sounds like a great pick for the driver I have heard that they are close to the original circuit and a good gut shot would help some to nail that down, but the schematic would serve better.

Yeah, the "AU" side of the 12DW7 will be good for driving tank. Supposed to be capacitor coupled. There is also extra gain stage compared to standard 5f2a circuit.
