NPN Boost sounds a bit like a wah?

[Voxin]

I just finished the NPN Boost build and everything works, but I have noticed that the tone is not as clear as I would like it to be (a bit muffled actually).  I have noticed that when the pot is maxxed out, the sound is kind of like when you engage a wah about half way.  It's very subtle but definitely noticeable.  The boost portion of the circuit works just fine but should I substitute a resistor somewhere to get rid of this sound?  Is it the pot?  Any help here would be great!

Many many thanks!

Print out a copy of the schematic or layout diagram (did you build it on perf, vero or PCB?) and trace the diagram against the board with a colored pen. Make sure you have the Electrolytic capacitors in with the polarity correct. Check the values of the caps to make sure you used the correct value. Measure the resistors with the power off to see if they are the correct value.
Get a magnifier (glasses or a jewelers loupe) and make sure you have no solder bridges or wire hairs across solder pads or components where they should not be.
When you find the mistake you'll have a good laugh, slap your forhead and then enjoy your new pedal.

I cleaned up the solderjoints and subbed the .1uf input capfor a .01uf andit nowsounds great.  However, is there a way I can adda slight bit more volume to the pedal?

Thanks for all of your help!

Yeah, didn't Dire Straits do a song about DIY electronics?:

There must be sunshine after rain
There must be laughter after pain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?

  IIRC that's an NPN Si Bootstrapped for gain, should make big boost over unity.
