Next Attempt at the Fuzz Face: Does it look right so far?

This is my third attempt to get  fuzz face beyond the breadboard stage. The pics below are of the front and back. I am using a 10K trim pot with a 1k resistor. I also have a 470 ohm resistor but if I am going to use Si transistors I understand that I have to change the 470 to a 330.  I  have all the components connected to each other. Next are the wires to switches, pots, etc. The resolution of the pics isn't very good but I hope you all can can tell if it looks right so far. Thanks for any feedback.

  Choose a node and count the number of connections.
  Note polarity of all/any polarized components, correctly polarize them.
  ...according to the schematic...
  Input is a good place to start, call that node #1, verify or test and re-check it, then start on node #2.
  Repeating seems like a waste of time, but after a number of times the FF schematic can be drawn from memory, and really that's part of the whole deal is getting a schematic in your head...then reread GEO tech of FF and try again to understand it [I sorta do].

I used Beavis Audio's picture to illustrate how to do the wiring:
