Thanks going to order the right capacitor and a new ton pot because I accidentally cracked the one i have now. One last question tho. When I use the clip switch the center position is loudest with a volume drop on the other two. is that normal? or is there something else I should look for.

Thanks for that info!!!! @Ralfg . I pulled C3 out and its working any idea why?

pulled out c9 and R5 and they are fine threw them back in. I pulled out the drive potentiometer to test it and according to what ive read online its ok. but while it was out I tried it out just for fun and found that the three way drive switch works on the top and bottom position with the mod clipping the center position cuts out. I dont know too much about circuits but isn't that a good indicator that maybe something is shorting out? Also while writing this I noticed c3 is actually 56 nfFinstead of 51 pF could that be it? going to try to find a cap rn.

Im trying to do the bright mod, which seems to work, and the stock ts9 and mosfet clipping. For c9 which terminals would i use there are three I am using the +,- and don't think polarity matters here. would you know which components specifically are for the overdrive that i can make sure to check. Thanks alot for your input @jackskellinton

So Ive built the Aion Stratus and I'm not getting any drive. The Volume and tone pots work fine and so does the bright switch. I checked the voltages on the Ic and they are within range of what I was told they should be. I tried to disconnect the drive pot and used a resistor to jump and nothing. Im pretty new at this so any help would be much appreciated!
