SOLVED Paragon Whistle/Scream

[piapium]

Unfortunately another pedal hasn’t worked at first try again.

1st channel engaged:
tone pot is full -> whistle

2nd channel engaged:
tone pot is full -> whistle

Both channels engaged -> whistle on any position of the pots.

Will upload pictures and a video tomorrow.

Appreciate any help. Thanks!

Your jacks are wired backwards. So when you touch the strings you are a big ground on your power supply.

Swap the wires on your jacks and try it. Put IC3 back in
