I say if you buy their wares, it's your own fault.

Very nice!

Not, it's less frustrating when there's no sons than when there is. Have you checked for solder bridges and cold joints?

Cool Jimi, glad you got it working!
Thanks. It was a stupid rookie mistake. Those eyelets are so tiny on that board, and I've been doing this for a while, and well...

Looks fantastic. Also I may note that is "still" looks fantastic for being a year old.

Awesome job

Can you touch the legs of another led to the dim one to see if it's dim also? I'm from the, " I wonder what would happen if" generation. :-D

That's looks awesome. The pedal vector pak is what I use.

Just increasing caps will allow more low end frequency, sometimes you need to change a resistor or two, usually the in and out cap works for http://www.muzique.com/pcb.htm the multi purpose opamp pcb will work for a transformer less direct box, otherwise it's really cheaper to just buy one. Transformers alone ate bout 80,00 when I was looking. Otherwise, I use a tonebone bassbone.

So for those of you keeping score, reflowing everything fixed it!

Error on the board, the notes on v3 point it out, it it's in the empty hole between tr1 and tr2 it grounds it.

Okay, thanks.  Just found that on the GPCB Forum.  It wasn't in the PDF I downloaded (or the schematic).

It's weird that you're getting 7.1V on your regulator and ICs.  Test your voltage either side of D4 and either side of R28.

Are you playing it boxed or attached to a test rig?  I built my original test rig with the Beavis Board-style voltage sag, and that control has bitten me on the butt more than once.
I have it on my testing rig with a regulated power supply. Forgive meif I get this wrong,
(+) Anode-9.5 (-) cathode 8.4 R28 since it's parallel to the diode we'll do it the same way. (+) 7.5 (-) 8.8
