Ok so I'm an idiot, I have worked with vero and built my first two pedals and then went to mod my tube screamer 💡 Great idea in concept except I held my iron to the pad for to long and lifted part of the trace. It's the 4.7k  resistor and 20nf input cap. Looks to my newbie eyes that it's the VR section of each component that got lifted. There connected on the underside so that's how I managed to kill two birds with one stone.  If anyone knows what else I can point to point wire them to I'd be really grateful.  Or the easiest way to fix my mistake.  I'm trying to go through the schematic and fine components I could but it's hard for me I think the 4.7 k can be connected to the 510k resistor(if it's close enough) because it also goes to VR. or I'm I sadly mistaken about how to fix it. I'll attach a picture and I appreciate anyone who takes the time out of there day to post suggestions

Thanks you for trying to narrow it down for me. I'm going to read that. If I post pictures could you possibly look over what I've done.  I know it's hard to help through pictures but I'm more then willing to do the research. This is literally the first circuit I've ever wired so I anticipated problems

It sounds like you might have a grounding issue. Have you seen the debugging tips thread? It's a sticky at the top of the Tech Help forum. Read through that and you should be able to start to find the issue.

I'm getting noise when I plug it in and have it in bypass and I also get that same noise out of the output jack you get when you touch a patch cord when plugged in.   Assuming that means that a signal is making it there. The input however there's nothing when I touch it when it's plugged in.   I check the entire circuit last night against the schematic and went from component to component check continuity. This is my 5th build but first project I've ever wired up because the wire took forever to arrive in the mail.   Any advice, tips and help is greatly appreciated
