These are suspected shortcircuits. Check the PCB against the PDF to be sure. If they are shortcircuits, cut in the direction of the line inside the circle i drew. Sometimes som kind of magnification is required to be able to see really small shorts. You can also use a digital multimeter to test...

Julio, what went wrong with the first board?

I've tested the preamp. I hooked it up to my original music man stingray as a pedal of sorts. I pulled the battery from my stingray and connected it to the preamp instead. All controls work. Maybe slightly lower output, but I think that's because I didn't switch the preamps and just connected...

Julio, show me a picture of your board, both componentside and solderside.

Julio, I have not tested it yet. I found a misstake I made on the PCB. Did you apply this fix? Look at the first picture showing the solderside of the PCB where I bent over the pin from R11 to R8.

I'm waiting for the chromeplate to arrive. I had some bad luck with the first I ordered that didn't arrive. So I bought another one from another seller. Everything is mounted on the pcb. I just need that chromeplate to mount all pots. I haven't tested anything yet, but it all should work.

I found an error on the pcb I copied. I accidentally forgot to connect one side of R11. It's a very simple fix. Just bend that lead from R11 to R8 BEFORE soldering it.

That was fast!

You're right, they're too close to really make a noticeable difference. I ordered your mouser project (Thank you!), maybe you can update that too with the correct values.

Who? me?

It's really not that hard to make PCB yourself.

I've made a copy of the original 3Eq PCB. PM me if you're interested in the PDF. While I did this I found that some resistors in domdec's design differ in value from an original 3EQ board. The resistorvalues in red are what they should be. Resistorvalues in blue are from domdec's design. R1...
