Hi Joe, awesome write up on these projects. I'm glad you took the time to put these together.

I'm doing my first build and I choose project 2. I built the circuit on perfboard and checked it using a breadboard, as you described n the first project. Everything worked fine using the breadboard but I'm having a very difficult time getting it working in the box. Testing with a multimeter it looks like the voltage only drops in the area where the signal goes into the board and around the tone control. Am I correct to assume that because it worked on the breadboard that the problem can't be on the perfboard itself? any suggestions where I should look. As far as I can tell if the problem is not on the perfboard then it must be coming from the signal input?
