Thanks for the guts !
What a boring "innovative high-tech design" (yet another Big Muff Clone....):
Take a Colorsound Jumbo Tonebender (Fuzz A) schematic, double the values of the coupling/feedback capacitors and that´s basically what it´s all about. Tone-control section appears to be the same, but must be verified - missing two resistor values, probably 33k.

There´s a sucker born every minute - and too many of them end up in the bootweak pedal biz.

Totally disappointing. I thought it was a germanium fuzz all this time.

100% correct - there are two 33k resistors that I missed. They are above the 220n/250 cap in the middle of the PCB (between the three pots).
There is another resistor that is missing: 8.2k on the left of the Fuzz pot.

Has anyone tried out that schematic? I've been in love with this clip for a long time now and I'll be trying out that circuit for sure.

EDIT: Also, that's the output cap going from the collector of Q3, right?

Its a muff. You can use any Muff vero. Just leave out the stuff omitted from the regular circuit.
