I've gone over and over the drawing, been taking resistance readings through sections of circuits, looking for missed or incorrect connections and keep hitting a dead end. are there any mistakes in this schematic in the tremolo section?
One thing that does look odd in the drawing is that next to the bass pot there are 2 ".01" labels but only one symbol for a cap. Is there supposed t be another symbol for a cap or is it supposed to only be 1 ".01" label?
Amp sounds fine and reverb works. The amp is very quiet (no/little hum) but will begin making a bit of hum if 1) the treble pot is at anything but zero 2) the volume pot or master volume (lar/mar) are maxed or close to maxed and the hum will pulse at the rate of speed set by the speed pot but the intensity pot seems to have no effect at all on the hum or guitar sound. The master volume is the only deviation from this drawing.
I'm starting to grow tired of debugging circuits that I'm not familiar with. I think from this point out I'm going to start doing a select few circuits and improve upon those and then add a new circuit to the arsenal every once in a while. Until this point I've been building just about anything people ask me to build and it's been great and I've learned alot but it's time to hone it down into about 5 amps or so that I can call mine and get to know those circuits completely inside and out and improve on them as time goes on.
