I'm sorry, not sure if this is a general question, a troubleshooting question, or what? Maybe there is no problem? Is this build such a high gain beast that I should have a squeal when the gain is past 2:00 / 2:30. I only noticed this last night as I finally got to run my guitar through it. When building, I always use a loop station pedal with riffs and test tones loaded in. No problem there. But with actual guitar it's noisy. I used my Les Paul and Fender strat. Double coils on both, wish I thought to use the single coil pickup just for more comparison. I'm curious to again double check my component values, I will trace out anything around the gain circuit of course, but... What do ya think? Does this sound right? Assume I should be using a suppressor or gate anyway? Or should this not be happening?
Also came back to add that I did swap out the power adapter as I have come across some where a faulty power source was actually the culprit. I didn't swap out instrument cables though. That too. But I see some very helpful replies already here. Thanks in advance.
