Hello all,

So i'm building my first fuzz face with the mangler PCB.
finished the build a few days ago, tried to rock it.. no sound. as it was late i decided to check for errors another day, looked at it yesterday: no obvious errors, double checked all resistor and cap values and orientation. Looks good to me.

Not so sure about the trannies orientation so i tried to plug silicon trannies instead and see what happened.. still nothing.

with a transistor in the socket, i put the trimmer to have 4.5v at the collector. can't remember if it was 4.5 or - 4.5, should be -, right?

What shoud i check to help you guys helping me finding the proble?

Well the silicone transistor won't work without swapping all the electros. Have you tried reflowing?
