D*A*M: Maggot Brain MB-71

Just a little fuzz face variant from D*AM - the Maggot Brain from 2019.  There are some more recent variations on this as well.   Could not see the cap and pot values, so just a partial trace.  Being a fuzz face, you kind of know what they might be.  I mostly breadboard before building a fuzz face cause they are so small, so I'm really just taking advantage of the form factor of the layouts at times.    

There's also a version using BC109 transistors, with a different bias set-up.  33k on Q1-C and 5k9 on Q2-C.  Some Maggot brains have a 15n output cap.
