Thanks guy - I'll add that last wire this arvo and see if it works. First time soldering so I'm not holding out much hope lol
Also just realised (looking at Simons better res image) I've wired the pot lugs back to front. Better fix that too!

Ha ha, Andy, I wouldn't get too excited just yet - still gotta get it to work lol
My little man came home sick today so I didn't get a chance to do anything else with the delay, but here's a pic of the kit as it came, and a progress shot I took yesterday of the board
I did manage to find the time today to breadboard a distortion circuit that I found here:
http://tonefiend.com/tonefiend-diy-c...cts-resources/
I know it's a super simple circuit, and it's not soldered or anything yet, but it was a pretty nice feeling hearing it work.
I play in a classical Chinese ensemble, and so I'm electrifying one of my instruments in an attempt at a kind of Classical Chinese/Doom fusion. Today was the first day I actually had the distortion I wanted to try out the sound, so I was pretty excited.

The only thing that could make it make more bizarre would be to have the work 'surf' in there somewhere... chinese classical/surf/doom fusion
Scott.
Ha ha, yeah, it's not the most obvious combination of musical influences. They're not as dissimilar as you'd first think though - a lot of the ensemble pieces we play are super slow tempo, and are made up of effectively endlessly looping melodies. I reckon with a bit of fuzz (and some very low tuning) it could be a winner lol
Will have to work on getting the surf in there though...
