I think they have.  Check out this thread.

Please post you tranny voltages when you are done.  I'd like to compare them against mine.

Built and working. Very strong octave down and very ugly sounding. Good though. With overdrive or fuzz after it.

Only tried 2N5089. Voltages below. Now I really don't know what's going on with the circuit (or most any) but Q4 and 5 are all 0. But it works, so I guess those 2 transistors are doing something i'm not used to seeing with other pedals.

Q1
c - 9.5 (power source)
b - 0.89
e - 1.10

Q2
c - 4.62
b - 1.08
e - 0.51

Q3
c - 9.15
b - 0
e - 0

Q4
c - 0
b - 0
e - 0

Q5
c - 0
b - 0
e - 0

Like I said it's ugly. So it's in a very ugly box.
