HI guys, I just finished building a Super 64. Everything looks fine, but I don't get any Overdrive, just really low sound also at max of the volume. I managed to set the bias for q1 and q2 at approximately 9v at the drain of the jfets, but I can set q3 only between 16v and 18v.
Thank you to the help

Somehow I found that r7 was not properly soldered.
Now I have a too strong sound almost fuzz, the switch makes no difference and all the 3 pot are just like volume with no difference on the sound.
Regarding bias, you can see on the pictures what I can manage to set: for q2 and q3 21v is the smallest value I can set
