I would like to thank Jarrell and Ben for sending URLs for diagnosing
transistors, it was very helpful.
It turns out that the package showed the incorrect pin configuration for
the transistor. Also, the remark about the sloppy tolerance of ECG parts
seems to be correct. After a bit of searching I have found out that the
ECG123a transistor is allegedly equivalant to at least 11 other
transistors. ECG claims that it is the same as both the 2N3904 and
2n2222! In any case, I rewired the SE and it looks like it works just fine
but I will be sure to keep a close eye on it.

Thanks again,
RZ
