SOLVED Eschaton Preamp No Signal

Hello! I've just completed the new Eschaton Preamp, but I get no signal when the effect is on. The LED is lit, and when bypassed the signal sounds perfect. I've re-flowed all my solder points, double-checked my component values, checked component orientations, and checked for any shorts that I could think of, all with no luck. Any ideas? I feel like I'm missing something simple or obvious...

And yes, I know there's a few spots of burnt insulation, a mar on one of the film caps, I cut out a lot of the plastic on the jacks, and the 220 uF AE cap is jury-rigged in there, but I've checked continuity and values at all those spots and they seem to be okay for now. I will replace them once I figure out the wider issue!

Thanks for the help! IMG_6432.jpeg IMG_6433.jpeg IMG_6434.jpeg IMG_6435.jpeg IMG_6436.jpeg IMG_6437.jpeg IMG_6438.jpeg IMG_6439.jpeg IMG_6440.jpeg IMG_6441.jpeg
