Built a Little Gem and a Fuzz Face last night.  LG is very nice sounding, bluesy rock sounds like ZZ Top or the Georgia Satellites with a Strat.  Cleans up well too.  Built an NPN Fuzz Face from Dragonfly's layout for the silicon Fuzz Face.  Used CV7112 transistors, Q1 hfe 70 and Q2 130.  Sounds decent enough I suppose.  I'm not very big on fuzz and maybe I expected too much from my first one.  Sounded better to me for high gain sounds though I imagine using it for solos through an already dirty amp would work quite well too.  All in all worth building even if I probably won't box it up.

I also uploaded a couple of 386 amps.  Tim Escobedo's Smokey Clone and the EZ Build Headphone Amp.  Both very simple, perfect as a little late night practice amp or as a test amp on your bench.  Enjoy.  :)
