Hey y’all, still kinda new here - I’ve got a Parentheses mini that functions on the boost side but doesn’t pass sound when the fuzz side is engaged. I have pot condoms on and i know I wired my switches correctly - the only visible issue I’be come across is this scratch on the PCB between the LM308N and a 1k resistor (photo attached). Could this be causing my problem/if so, how could I remedy it? 27CD6A73-6912-4CA4-B651-66E51A9101C4.jpeg

You ever figure this out? I got the same issue currently and just made a thread. Boost passes signal, Fuzz does not.
