Is the art water decal?

Bummer they are going in heavy on using someone’s font and names to sell copies. A little too on the nose.

Step one would be confirming the power supply is putting out power. Then if so, hooking the power it into the wires, test if power is still there if is not look for the likely ground fault. This is why people are telling you to pull out the socketed ICS. The IC pump is a general problem that...

Did you take out the magical diodes? Hard to see from the image but they look missing. Not that that is your issue. Did you test to see if the power wire is getting signal through it. I one time found a piece of wire that had a dead spot in the middle of the run.

I do tend to use sockets on ICs for the same reason as above. You can use them for another project if you don't like the pedal.

Good fix, but there is really no need for transistor sockets. They will give you trouble. A modern transistor is very unlikely to be damaged by soldering.

The mpf102 are fun for these https://www.runoffgroove.com/ruby.html. Small speakers for a battery powered test amp. And also can plug into a cab for a full size amp sound and volume.

Maybe a PedalPCB board should be offered?

You are very unlikely to ever need to replace an electrolytic from years of use within a low powered pedal. Replacement issues usually stem from wrong power supplied or other catastrophic failures. Using under powered caps, or sticking a cap right next to a tube, ect. Normal usage of a pedal...

Used this cheap one for many years and for more than pedals. https://www.harborfreight.com/spring-loaded-center-punch-621.html

R34. Good catch. Looks like you might be correct.

Have you double checked your tants for polarity? Sometimes the + side marking can lead to installing backwards.

Trim pot. Then adjust to your preference. Or then measure the setting on the trimmer and install that resistor.

You can test the ic socket for a bridge or if it is making contact with the PCB by taking out the ic and using your meter to see if the socket is going to the pad underneath and/or the trace next pad on top of the PCB. That would rule that out for you if you are concerned with a short.

Have you tried swapping around the Bbd yet? Or measured the empty sockets before installing them?

Did you get the echo ic from him?

I was saying a good first step would be swapping the ICs between the two pedals to confirm they both work. There are plenty of fakes for the BBD ics and some could just be dead on arrival. Are you saying it is the same physical Ic or you got them from the same place?

If you have a working one you can compare the volts. Have you swapped the BBD ic? The text font looks a little different.

Glass bead kit, or some glass rods might be fun for you.
