Haha yeah I'm hopeless with braid it usually ends up sticking to everything but where you want it

A bit long winded but this guy shows you a good method using wire and braid to desolder multi pin components He also shows you how to make DIY solder braid And a couple of calculations to change pot values https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wzreks29JTbZJFxwrDYzgosr-dUmUqDd/view?usp=drivesdk

From your symptoms it does sound like you've mixed the pot values up When you checked their values was it across the 2 outer lugs I can't see where you've soldered your green SW wire to but it looks to me like you'd want to solder to the top pad of the 3PDT clr Check to see if the red circles...

It's suggested in the Wampler mods book that you change the value to 100 or 200pf on the CH1 I downloaded the book years ago from his site when he made it available and have just uploaded them to my drive again the CH1, CE2 and CE3 mods are in part 2 in case you don't have them...

Do you get - 9v on pin 5 of the charge pump What transistors are you using we can't see the type, some AC transistors are npn As already mentioned there are some solder joints that look like they lack solder the switch outer connections, level pot lugs 2 and 3, fuzz pot 2, out jack tip wire...

Anything dual or quad, in this case op amps will be separated in Kicad as you say into sections A, B, C, D each representing a single op amp circuit within a dual or quad package Mainly I think to avoid clutter in your schematic, it's a lot tidier and much less congested using a 3 pin op amp...

Meant to say I checked all values and orientation they looked good to me The OC140 is NPN I'm on a mad quest for NPN germaniums so I've bought a few recently Saying that there is some dude selling them as PNP on ebay I didn't tell them coz I thought they're cheap I'll get me a few

Is D1 the correct way around or is it one of those Russian ones with the band on the anode if it's the wrong way around that'll mess up Q3s biasing What's your Polish transistor I've never seen NPN Polish germaniums is it a TG series

Looks like your DC jack connections unless I'm looking at it wrong red ground? goes to + and green to -

I'd sincerely doubt Bill at Griffin would release an unverified board I know nobody's dissing him but he's a very helpful guy in my experience I'm sure if the schematic was completely wrong folks in forum land would let us know and Bill would be on it I don't know how many successful builds...

Splendid I've a feeling they're gonna be just the job Did you pop the black line in and then sand it It's a nice idea you could use any colour for the line or several for easy custom knobs

That looks great a really professional looking build I've got the NostalgiTone Voodoo Redux board waiting in the queue it might just jump the queue looking at yours, very nice indeed

Try clicking the 3PDT on and off a few times, then try the rotary to see if it still does it It could be a few things internal or external something as simple as a dry solder joint, leaky cap or your power supply etc Measure for DC on the in and out jacks: From Geofex...

Where in Europe are you? I buy a lot of germaniums from this vendor they're always good the CV7351 is just the military version of it If you ask I'm sure he'll give you hfe and leakage specs...

Post voltages for all ICs this may indicate your problem area As @music6000 says nothing appears to be incorrect regarding component values and orientation that we can see The only things we can't see are the electro values which you've confirmed are correct and C9 which should have code 222...

Yes you'd need a meter to check it Auto ranging is probably better something like this...

The regulator pins left to right are output (5v) middle ground and power (9v) Or you could check what voltage you get on the brick pin 1 and IC5 pin 1 which should be 5v ish https://www.componentsinfo.com/lm78l05-pinout-equivalent/ Checking those voltages mentioned will just let you know the...

Your images are out of focus it's very difficult to see anything clearly If you haven't already check all component values and orientation are correct as I say I can't see your resistor colour bands etc to check The transistors are 5v voltage regulators check to see you get 5v ish on the...

Awful news Cees was such a friendly helpful guy Heres the Sonomatic build doc https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aw-miJfmoRjQmnqrzMzATnEiyUi4dfBd/view?usp=drivesdk

Now that's some nice work far superior to my first efforts It's nice to see someone with the same sickness as me boxfilmitus - 'they must be straight' I'm obsessive with getting my box film caps perfectly matched to the silkscreen For someone who's just started that's a magnificent example...
