SOLVED Corduroy Fuzz wont work!!!

[SPugin]

Hey guys
This is my first post here and im kind of out of ideas… tried everything i know but i just cant seem to get my board working… gives a weird gainy sound that cuts when i strum too hard… reflowed every joint… checked every single part on board one by one (even desoldered caps and put new ones in)… changed transistors and restested a few times… rebiased jfets at around 4.5vdc each time…
I know this is a long shot but was wondering if any of you guys had ideas?

thanks

Please post some pictures. Both sides of the board. Perhaps we'll see something you're not.

That size might be better

I was gonna say I can barely see it, but thanks for reposting.

Curious, is it supposed to sound like that? I haven't gone on YooooToooobe to look it up yet. You may be talking about gating where it almost sounds quiet when you strum hard then gets louder?

I know what you mean but its not a normal fuzz gating sound… i will see if i can send a short clip to let you know what i mean
Thanks

Just figured it out!
One of the PCB ring had poped off when removing the fuzz pot to reposition in enclosure… made a jumper between cap and lug and pedal works perfectly
Thanks
