MKB	Re: ? for RG/anyone-buffer stage for fuzz face I have installed a switchable FET source follower buffer in all my Fuzz Face clones, I think it really helps the tone especially with a humbucker equipped guitar. The buffer that has been suggested (by RG Keen I think) for a Cry Baby will work fine. You will also probably need the 50K pot between the output of the buffer and the FF input, as the buffer may make the FF distort poorly; the 50K pot will help that. Good luck!
