    OK I got it working! Reflowed all the joints and found I had the Fuzz and volume pots backwards.. but the wiring about is nit correct. You have to swap the to outer leads of both the Fuzz and volume. I got it biased to -5.74vdc that’s the lowest it will go, any suggestions on how to get it in the -4.5 range?? External trim pot?? It sounds pretty cool as is just wondering if at 4.5v it will have more Fuzz?

    Glad you got it solved. 5.47 v is absolutely fine.

    To be clear the backwards wired pots will not affect your bias voltages. They will simply work in reverse rotation.

    The wiring diagram was indeed an outdated version of an older board or a “Picture Typo” if that is a thing and will be corrected.

    This is what the forum is for. Helping out all together.

    I usually always bias by ear to what sounds good to me so if it’s sounding good to you job done Chad

    Yep it sounds pretty awesome! Thanks everyone for the help! Looking forward to the next build. I’ll be more careful with parts and soldering.  Guess I was a lil rusty lol. Cheers!
