Step 3

: Flip the PCB over so that the bottom or solder side is up. Insert the 

A100k (Volume), B50k (Resonance), B500k (Filter) & B50k(Gain) 
potentiometers, and the LED into the bottom side of the PCB. 

IF YOUR POTS 

HAVE COVERS, REMOVE THEM BEFORE CONTINUING. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO 
CUT A SLIT IN THE COVER WITH A BLADE AND USE A SMALL SCREWDRIVER 
TO GET LEVERAGE.

  

DO NOT SOLDER ANYTHING YET!!!

  The LED will 

have one lead that is longer than the other.  

THIS WILL GO INTO THE 

SQUARE SOLDER HOLE.
