Maybe this should be in the "Us & Them" forum
but I wanted to compare the D*A*M 1965 (MKI) to the Jerms MKI.
IMO, the 1965 has set the std. for how to build the very best MKI circuit in existence.
Well, I think Jerms has manged to reach that lofty height of bliss with his MKI.
They sound so alike.
Jim, you's screwed now buddy ... better get hunting for parts!
What gets me is all the tweaking,
just crank that bitch and be done with it! -- duende

So what are the major differences to your ears?
That's the point, I couldn't hear any difference at all.
Granted, I didn't try the knobs at every setting.
But if I was blindfolded, I could not tell one from the other.
Dave's 1965 is so very good,
so Jerms really hit a home run with this thing!

That's about as good of an endorsement as I need.
Here's to hoping those new transistors work out Jim.
I haven't tried a 65 (yet!), but Jim's MkI is absolutely without a doubt my favourite fuzz so far (and I didn't think that it was possible to have "a" favourite).
MkI is one of the most awesome fuzz boxes ever. I always wanted to hear some comparison clips between MkIs from different builders, as I have a feeling that they sound very different.
