  • Photocells

    CDS photocells, as used in Fender trem bugs and others.

    I have an Ampeg B18X, and it needs an opto for its trem. Flip Tops no longer has any, and unlikely to see more soon. So we plan to make one. It appears to have a neon lamp inside and two CDS cells. I have bought them in the past from Jameco, and they didn't disappoint this time, here is their list of selection for anyone else looking for photocells.

    Impressed with Jameco's selection! I get mine from CE/Antique, intended as Morley pedal replacements. No selection there, there's only one kind & price is a little higher but WTH, when the parts drawer is looking near empty I just add ten or a dozen to the next order so I can build-a-bug when it's needed. Thanx Enzo for reminding us Jameco is another parts resource.
    This isn't the future I signed up for.

      While I was buying a few photocells, I also had need of a dual pot. They have a selection of 24mm dual pots as well.

      Actually they have a bunch of other dual pots in other shapes.
