Ross Compressor Transistor Question

[Kevin]

I am trying to build a Ross Comp clone and can't locate the original 2SC1849 NPN transistors.  Are these transistors still around?  If not, would anybody be able to suggest a replacement?

You can use 2N3904's. Most of the sites that have Ross Comp builds use or suggest the use of the 3904. Always nice when you can use a common  component.
