mangler not not mangling

[add4]

Hello all,

So i'm building my first fuzz face with the mangler PCB.
finished the build a few days ago, tried to rock it.. no sound. as it was late i decided to check for errors another day, looked at it yesterday: no obvious errors, double checked all resistor and cap values and orientation. Looks good to me.

Not so sure about the trannies orientation so i tried to plug silicon trannies instead and see what happened.. still nothing.

with a transistor in the socket, i put the trimmer to have 4.5v at the collector. can't remember if it was 4.5 or - 4.5, should be -, right?

What shoud i check to help you guys helping me finding the proble?

Well the silicone transistor won't work without swapping all the electros. Have you tried reflowing?

does bypass work?
have you double-checked your wiring?
what trannies do you use?
