SOLVED Parasite trouble

Just popped together a parasite for a friend.
No signal when engaged!
Had to use some biiig 68n caps because it’s all I had.
Areas of interest- the pot may be wired wrong! It’s a 10k dual.
I’ve reflowed. Board is clean. Any ideas gang?
Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated.
If you can’t spot anything obvious I’ll start audio probing tomorrow.

Ok did another reflow, connected the power correctly and voila!
Marking this one as solved.
Just have to get the pot seated and buy some grease!
Thanks @swyse and thank you @Chuck D. Bones as always for answering my dumb questions.
I'm just getting ready to start on mine, was making a list of stuff I needed when the doorbell rang, I answered it and found the bag of components I needed for it, that I ordered "slow ship" and totally forgot about. Took one look at the jacks and realized I ordered TS instead of TRS. sigh. And I did not even order the pot, so I guess I can get that when I order the TRS.

What type of pot do you have there? My wah enclosure specifies a splined shaft (but doesn't specify size in mm).
