I built a DEFX Zuperbee(SSBS Buzzz) which is a Superfuzz with a bunch of toggles. I didn't pay attention to notice that the orientation of q4 and q5 were reversed and ended up putting q5 in backwards and then scorching/lifting the collector pad when I wicked off the solder and pulled it out. I used the continuity tester on my DMM to find the correct lug on the gain switch where the collectors of both transistors connect and jumpered the q5 collector there, but I still don't get an octave and there's oscillation in the high gain mode, that's when it went on the pile of shame.
Can I run a jumper from the collector of q5 directly to the collector of q4 and make the necessary connections? Here is the relevant portion of the schematic:
Thanks!
