From the post

This one will let you continue to use the more consistent PNP germanium transistors, but the charge pump will provide a -9V supply, so the ground at 0V can be daisy chained with all your negative ground effects. The same structure could be used with any circuit that is usually PNP like the Rangemaster or Tonebender.
