The Mutant Tonebender that is!
 I can't seem to get Qs 2&3 collectors voltages down.
 Q3...It just seems too high at ~9.44+v with a battery at 10.55v+...
 Yes it's a 50k on Q3 collector and 100k on Q 2's
 Q2's lowest collector voltage to date is 8.66+v...
 All the collector pots change the voltage at The respective Q collectors.
 Actually BION it works and sounds interesting depsite the gating and osci.
 Mosfet's Jfets Bipolars etc ...none influence the bias voltages much, very few [from what I have] pass signalseems like the trimpots [collectors pots] should drop the voltage to around half supply???  If there's a miswire in it it's good at hiding...lol...just that neither Q2 or3 seem to be getting biased...
  I don't know if there were any rel good questions in there^, however any answers will be entertained!!!
