 Hi All,

Thinking tubes...

What about the tremolo circuits used in mid-60's Gretch and CBS guitar
amps? I don't remember exactly how it wokred, but it used only 1 tube
section (read: NPN transistor) and just a few other parts.

The tremolo was controlled by a switch-pot. Off position = no tremolo, with
increasing speed (and depth?) as the pot is wound on. This ciruit was not a
source of noise, as I recall. Does anyone know the circuit I'm talking about?

That's it.
