Create Your Own Guitar Effects Pedal

Step 8 TroubleShooting:

If there's something wrong, there's a couple of things you can try:

Check your offboard wiring, sometimes it's easy to mix input and ground. If that happens, you will hear some noise out of your amp when the pedal is engaged, but no guitar signal coming through.

If all the wiring is correct, check for bad solder joints, both in the offboard wiring and on the board. The solder joints should be clean and silvery.

Next thing is checking if there's any current coming through. Get a multimeter, and check if the circuit is complete, and if heat sensitive parts like transistors and op-amps aren't fried.

Where is the parts list and plans for this?

"I got both the schematics, layouts and directly printable PCB etching drawing from www.tonepad.com", this was where i believe he got his schematic, should probably be a parts list there too. I personally like General Guitar Gadgets. they have kits you can buy or you can do like i did with some of mine and use Digikey Mouser or Small Bear Electronics to buy the parts and put it on perf board.
