BC 256B Transistors - good for anything?

I stumbled across a bag of BC 256B Transistors in a surplus shop recently. Is there anything that could be built with these? I've looked up the datasheets and tried the Google, but I'm not finding anything fx-related.

Thanks.

Has pretty much the same Hfe value as 2N2222 and 2N3904 as far as I can tell.
Focusing on specific part numbers are not that important! Hfe values are much more important!
It will probably work in most circuits on this site that uses standard NPN silicon transistors...

It's a PNP transistor, so uses will be less common for pedal stuff.
