Would these work as well for all 3 jacks?These are the type I used for the prototypes:
I'm planning to work up an alternate Tayda drill template with slotted holes for the jacks so these can also be used, but you'd need the holes slotted to the edge of the enclosure in order to use them.

Thanks. While I have you, what are the FCR14422 used for? Is it for the jacks?That looks similar, both are clones of the Neutrik NMJ6HCD2.
Also, you might want to drill a slightly oversized hole for the expression jack. It needs to be insulated from the enclosure.
Ooh so that's what those holes are on the PCB on the ends of jacks??Yep, they're for grounding the enclosure.
You really only need one, either on the input or output jack, or you can ground it by some other method.

Sorry, one last thing (maybe), for the rotary pot daughterboard, is it meant to mount to the PCB with pin headers? I haven't used those yet...Yep.

I recently got mine populated and functioning though my expression pedal isn't doing a whole lot. @Robert do I need a special expression pedal or does this mean there's something wrong with mine?

I think I know what’s going on now, which explains why the expression pedal configuration makes no sense with an assumption of a standard expression pedal configuration. The stone deaf “proprietary” expression pedal must consist of a dual gang pot with a common sleeve connection to either lug 1 or 3 of the two pots, and the wiper of the two pots being the tip and ring connections. Easy to put together for sure, but not at all like a normal expression pedal. I can draw it up tomorrow if anyone doesn’t get what I’m saying.Stone deaf mentions that it's designed for use with their proprietary expression pedal. How that differs from my rickety Amazon jobbie, I couldn't tell you.
