In this fuzz face circuit are BC108 types applied, which are selected on HFE of 260.
That value can be found in the BC548B type HFE range.

the reason that i asked is because, since i didn't have any BC558's (which is the first transistor and is a PNP) i tried a 2N2907A but i it just didn't sound right (too peaky and sharp). i then tried an MPS8598 with an hfe of 210 and it sounded really good. i also tried a BC559B with an hfe of 259 and that also sounds great.
