Connect the 3M resistor to terminals #4 and #5. This resistor should be pushed down to allow room for
other components to be mounted later in the instructions.
Do not solder at #5, yet.
Connect a 10K resistor to terminals #5 and #6.
Do not solder at #5, yet.
Connect the MPSA13 transistor to terminals #3, #4 and #5 as listed below.
Solder all of the connections
at these terminals now

F cap to terminals #7 and #11. This should be mounted upside down to allow room for
other components to be mounted later in the instructions.
Do not solder at #11, yet.
Connect a 10K resistor to terminals #9 and #10.
Do not solder at #10, yet.

Connect the remaining 10K resistor to terminals #14 and #15.
Connect the 330pF cap to terminals #11 and #12.
Connect the 820K resistor to terminals #12 and #13.
Connect the 0.22
µ
F cap to terminals #12 and #17. Mount this cap upside down.
Connect the positive (+) lead of the 22
µ
F cap to 1K pot lug 2 and
connect the negative (-) side to 1K pot lug 3. Mount it so that its leads
are not at risk of shorting out against the pot's body.

Connect one end of the 1.5K resistor to both lugs 2 and 3 of the 100K “tone” pot. Connect the other end
to terminal #19.
Connect the .0039
µ
F cap to terminals #18 and #19.

Connect the 180Ω resistor from terminal #6 to footswitch lug 4.
Connect the 0.1
µ
F cap to terminals #2 and #4. This should be mounted upside down to allow room for
other components to be mounted later in the instructions. There will be two more components
connected to terminal #4 so
do not solder at #4, yet.
