Seasons Greetings!

Thinking about the 410 Fuzz as a future build. For parts ordering purposes, what transistors go in Q1 & Q2?

Thank you as always!

Q1
hFE=543 at Ic=5.03mA
Vbe=0.731V at Ib=1.00mA
Vbe=0.798V at Ib=5.00mA
VceSat=0.029V at Ic=5.0mA and Ib=1.00mA
IcLeak=0.000mA

Q2
hFE=566 at Ic=5.00mA
Vbe=0.704V at Ib=1.00mA
Vbe=0.776V at Ib=5.00mA
VceSat=0.029V at Ic=5.0mA and Ib=1.00mA
IcLeak=0.000mA
 
This fuzz also works great with 2n5089 (hfe = 600) and Soviet/Russian КТ3102ЕМ (hfe =550, 600, 700, 800). I couldn't hear any difference, love the sound
