I have substituted the BC109s with 2N222As.
Where are my mistakes. It is just making a deep hum.
Thanks for your time you guys!
are the left and right hand side + and - busses connected internally?
hi
are the rails at the right side connected also to + and - ? It looks like at least the negative rail nees to be connected
Armando
They are now connected, thanks.
The hum is gone, but there does not seem to be any effect.
Any other suggestions?
Hi
being an "easy to build (but sometime hard to work properly!)" efferct I suggest you take off everything and start again, and while building it check all connection with a multimeter (even if the breadboard looks brand new), then you can build an "audio-probe" to check your signal, from In to Out, connection by connection; here's a link to "how to..." http://www.diystompboxes.com/pedals/debug.html

Get out your multimeter, if you breadboard is anything like mine those chunks of connects for power rails are not connected to each other, I bridged mine with a bunch of jumpers.
So for example I reckon if you test for continuity between the Fuzz pot lug and the cap leg, I bet there is none.
Is this pos ground or neg ground? Take care, in pos ground all jacks/pots etc are grounded to +VE
Hello,
From the pics it looks like you are omitting the ground side of the input and output cables, you need to ground them.
