    I did, but there's a short or a bad solder joint somewhere. Probably my ham-fistedness at play when I put it in.
    I'll get the multimeter out in the next few days and have a poke around.

    Tim I had trouble with my pre-amp earthing on the copper shielding on one of the circuit boards above the pots. I ended up having to scrape some of the shielding away so it didn't make contact

    Wokka, one trick I have been using is to cut a bit of milk bottle plastic to use as a bib to fit around the top of the pot to keep the terminals away from the shielding. Might have worked well for your pre-amp circuit board too. Just a thought..

    Cheers,
    Gav.
