I finally gave up making a clone of the Roger Mayer Axis Fuzz and got one.  I immediately noticed a difference between the schematics I've seen and the one I have.  The original only has 7 capacitors and not 8.  It's missing the .001uf.  Any ideas?  Is this why the other one wouldn't work?

With the .001u the "other" one should work, but should sound better without that cap.

You know what the solution is right?  Board pics!!!   :)

Just removed the .001uf cap in my cloned version.  Wow!!!!   Thanks for the tip!   Sounds much more alive.......
