Whats up compadres. I pulled out a mud bunny I built about year ago and it looks like it decided to stop working. When the effect is engaged and I crank the amp I can hear the faintest sound of my guitar signal, but thats about it. It was working before, as I tracked with it at work a while back and it sounded great. It was late so I did a quick once over, took some voltages and checked for ground and loose solder joint. Q4 looked a little suspect. Need to check the shem, maybe something is up with the bias resistors on Q4? Below are my voltages. Im going to see Brendan Kelly from the Lawrence Arms tonight but after that Im gonna tray some more trouble shooting with my testing rig. If anyone has any sage advice let me know. Thanks homies!

Q1            Q2
C= 4.6v         C= 4.48v
B= .72mv         B= .725v
E=152mv         E= 155mv


Q3            Q4
C= 4.3v         C= 9.3v
B= .71mv         B= 0mv-100mv all over the place no solid reading
E= 148mv         E= 0mv
Wake up and smell the noise!!
