I made a handful of these awhile back for some peeps. Have no idea how it compares to an original, I kinda tuned it by ear.

And here's two cascaded which I later tried to incorporate into one pedal but it didn't sound as good.

This is a pretty simple effect to build. Pigeon effects offers a mojo PCB kit. General guitar gadgets has one, as well. If you went that route, I would suggest socketing transistors. It's easy to get that buzzsaw sound but I found in my experiments you can get different colors/shades. Adjusting the feeback resistor on the second transistor is sometimes necessary and variable mid scoop mod is fantastic. I want to return to that circuit someday and pump 12-18 volts into it.

I built the ggg one and it sounds like sex. I think I spent 60 bucks on parts.

Get Rygot to build you one; he did a bang up job on mine; He even let me put a light-brite unicorn on it.
