"The transistors used in the old ones are unmarked so we pulled them out and tested them to find the specifications. Then we checked our stash and found some NOS Mullard germanium transistors which we had been saving for many years that were similar. We made about 100 of these pedals with these NOS transistors before we started to get low on the transistors. After that, we made a version with two NOS Russian transistors, which I found closest to the originals in sound and even looks, and one of the old Mullards. The Russians sound about the same in the MKIV, as they are not critical in that part of the circuit. These first two transistors are in a "Darlington Pair" configuration which gives them very high gain. We can sometimes optionally use all three Mullard transistors for a higher cost if we have them in stock. These are often military grade Mullards, the CV version of OC72, made in mid 1969 at the Mullard Ltd., Mitcham factory. The sound with the three Mullards might be a little more nasally/vocal sounding, the Russians a slight bit clearer."
