I built it and love it!! I cheated and used resistors and transistors from the ol' parts bin, though. The two transistors in the bulb may be worthless, but I found a few 3904's that worked out fine.
  I also stuck a .022 or .047uf from input to ground to smooth out the buzzy highs.
      I would compare the sound more to a Tone Bender than a Fuzz Face: huge with massive sustain. The Meathead boutique Fuzz Face pedal is basically the same circuit, believe.
