-ve ground with PNP transistors

[dubs]

Hi there,
I wish to build a coloursound tonebender using PNP ermanium transistors.
Is it possible to build one with negative ground? How do I go about this?

And considerable research...it seems Dunlop is using this scheme on the New FF's? That's what I gathered from the Recent thread started by Zachary Vex.
 Uh as for how to make that work I don't know that it's understood, or haven't seen any explanations...all the posts of these type builds I saw got working by being converted to PNP pos ground.
 One recommendation for experimentataion: use easily substitutable transistors till you figure out how to get it going before putting in your 'dinosaur egg' germanuim finds to avoid damaging them.

I haven't seen that one 'till now...interesting!
 Looks like the transistors are 'upside down' as the supply polarity...These are PNP emitters where the Collectors [and vice versa] 'would' be in a
  PNP pos ground Tonebender?
