The Woolly Mammoth, which this is with fixed resistors instead of pots, has a 2k lin pot between the cathode of the 100u cap and ground labelled Wool.  You could add that back into the layout.

Add a cut beside the B of the second 2n3904
flip the 100u so its cathode goes 1 row above its anode
put a wire on that row to your new fuzz pot lug 1
Fuzz lugs 2 and 3 to ground

Heres the WM schematic for reference

Let us know how you get on.  Cheers

Ciaran, Thanks so much. Worked well. After a bit of messing around ended up putting a 470 ohm resistor between the 100u cap and ground (that'd be like having The gain at around 2:30 On the wooly mammoth.

Wonderful job Ciaran!

Watching youtube's videos, I've noticed that the PW control is reversed in the original...the gated fuzz sound is "on the right". Is it true?

Hi Giudis

You may be correct.  Although I did breadboard it, I never built it.  And I was learning how to use Eagle to draw schematics at the time too.  So I may have labelled the pout lugs wrong on the PW control.  Some of the folks here who built it could better answer your question.

Cheers
