Thanks all for the help...  Grounded it as recommended and this thing sounds great...  Love it!!!!
Will post a pic when I get it boxed up and finished....

Thanks Jacob, at least that's the avenue I was thinking.....  Will give it a try and let you know...

Forgive my ignorance.  To what would I ground it?
Thanks

Flow and connections look correct.  Any ideas?

Pic attached.

Will post some pics after work...

It is outside of the box....  Ground from sleeve to
Might this cause the inability to get bypass with switch off?
I truly appreciate everyone's help...  It's been many years since I breathed in large doses of flux....
Once I get this rig up running, functional, and quiet when it's supposed to be, I will do some experimenting with cap values to favor lower end response....
Thanks....

Excellent, thanks....  I've now got something coming out, good distorted/fuzz sound...
However, I still have a loud hum and there is no bypass when I throw the switch off.....
I've checked wiring on the switch and wiring to/from the switch...
Hum and no bypass with switch off....  That is now my dilemma...
Secondarily....  which caps might I switch to get lower end response as I am using this for a bass....
Thanks a bunch...

The Bumblebee pdf shows wiring while using the Road Rage for power.  Maybe I'm missing a connection with the switch relative to DC power?  Is there a drawing out there for wiring without the Road Rage with respect to input/output jacks, battery, and the 3PDT switch?
Thanks...

Thanks...  I've checked solder joints, components, etc....
I may be confused relative to positive ground.....  I installed negative side of battery to -9V on PCB...  Would that be correct?

Good Evening,
First post, first madbean build...
Completed the build and tried it out to find a horrible humming noise.  Pots had effect but nothing coming from the instrument.  I tried reversing transistors, no effect so I believe I had them in correctly the first time.....
Recommended troubleshooting procedures?
I appreciate your time.....
