Solder joints cooled down and one of them needs to be reflowed. That’s my initial guess.

Sounds like a ground, could be anything, though. Did you just finish building it or has it been built for a while?

I did not. I made an eagle file from the schematic for a friend who sent me a pcb.

Strip board is a lot easier to troubleshoot IMHO. No hidden traces. What I like to do is take a pic of the back side and zoom in on it. You can see bridges and bad solder joints easier.

I need to go back and look at mine. I built one last year, I don’t remember having a volume issue.

Bypass 5 on the main board is board in and bypass 7 on the main board is board out.

The lugs are numbered like this 1 4 7 2 5 8 3 6 9 Look on the stomp board to see where the solder pad traces are connected to those lugs.

But you’re depriving yourself of the excitement of exploding capacitors.

If it will take card stock, you’ll have no issues. I used to use my exwife’s printer when she wasn’t home. She was always confused when it ran out of toner so quickly even though she hadn’t printed that much. 🤣

Yep. Laser printers are becoming more affordable.

Yessir, but white instead of clear. The colors stand out better.

I love it. I wish I still had the old Peavey Bass head I used to have. It was one of the MKI heads. The uncle that gave it to me borrowed it and gave it back when it stopped working. I held onto it for about 20 years before I got rid of it. Wish I had it back.

If nothing else, you can look at trace and see which side goes to the clear. Or, you can use your DMM to see which pad has voltage.

Set them from 4.5 to 5v.

If I’m not mistaken, the letters face the flat side of the transistor on the silkscreen. The other way would be the schematic.

Google 2n5457 pinout.

I have about 9 amplifiers and I still insist on using my Scarlett’s 2i2 for testing out my builds. I’m so lazy.

WiFi server is very helpful.
