Caesar Chorus - 33R swap?

Hello, I am building the Cesar Chorus and just realized for R102 I do not have a 33R. I have a 10R and 68R, could either of those work? Many thanks!
 
Did you actually calculate the resistance power wattage needed at this point in the circuit? I don’t know what the voltage or current is at this point, but for a 33ohm resistance, it doesn’t take much voltage to burn that resistor up.
For pedals 1/8w is usually more than adequate

That’s exactly what’s happening to me. It keeps burning up
 
Are you using a 1/4 watt 33ohm resistor?
Yep. Had 9 volts on the supply side but less than 1 volt after the 33R. Really weird but after getting some replacement ICs things are working great now. Haven’t had the time to go back and check which one was causing the problem yet.
