My "Stock Up" list + some questions
Post Body

This is my first time making a "big" order from Tayda so I'll need someone to help me figure out if I missed anything or if I should remove some things. Keep in mind I'll mostly be building just drive/fuzz pedals.

Here's my questions:

  1. Does it REALLY matter if a pot is logarithmic or linear as long as it gets from point A to point B?
  2. I've heard that I should stay away from "green caps" (polyester mylar film), should I change those to the polyester film box type? Keep in mind I will mostly be using stripboard so idk if that would make a difference.
  3. Are there any good alternatives to J201s?
  4. The only OpAmp on my list is a Tl072, what else should I get if anything?
  5. I'll be making mostly drive/fuzz pedals and I already have around 20 bc108s, should I add or remove any transistors to my list?
  6. Is AWG 24 stranded the best wire for this type of stuff or is solid core better?
  7. Final question - is there anything in general that I've missed besides enclosures or does my list look pretty good? Thanks.
