I recently built a silicon fuzz face (using an mps2222a and 2n3904) and i think it sounds great... great enough that Im going to build another with BC108/ BC109's.  My question is regarding the direction of turn on the Fuzz pot.  Currently, it is at max fuzz when I turn it CCW, while the volume is maxed at CW.  Can I rewire the Fuzz Pot to work so that it maxes out at CW instead of CCW?  Or, would this require a different pot?  Thanks!

Propably you've wired the fuzz pot in wrong direction...
(if it's on the emmiter resistance and acts like you describe...)

Just interchange the wiring between lugs 1 and 3...

Cool, I was hoping it was that simple. Thanks!
