Can I power this 6V preamp from 12V?

What could be the problem? (Attachment Link)
NOTE: I know it's an overdrive circuit but it doubles as a preamp when I turn it down.

when I put like a 47nF cap for DC coupling at the circuit it doesn't pass DC trough!

That's because it's an AC coupling, not DC coupling capacitor..
If your 1μF was conducting, it was either because it was damaged or connected backwards.
