The thing is now dialed in and sounds beautiful! The final trim pot configuration ended up like most pictures I see of the unit. The left one at bit past ten oclock and the right one a bit past 1 oclock.

It is also dead quiet while on with humbucker pickups. With single coils I can hear a faint swirling in the background when nothing is being played but there is always slightly more noise with the single coils. I am playing at a fairly low volume but some pedals are noisy even at low volumes. This one seems quiet.

I’ve decided to just run batteries in order to preserve this in its vintage condition because it seems to be one of the earliest models made apart from the blue box one. I’m going to pick up a Boss LS-2 line selector so I can balance out the volume.

I really appreciate the help getting this working and I hopefully these posts will help anyone else that comes across the same kind of problems.

UPDATE! SUCCESS! I hear flanging!

The only thing is I still have a fair bit of distortion now along with the flanging that I need to deal with. Could this be caused by a weak battery? One of my 9volts is at 9 and the other is at 7volts.

I have a few spare 9v power supplies and 9v power plugs along with some barrel power jacks so I was going to set them up so I can just plug in a 9v power supply to each 9v plug on the unit. These power supplies are 650ma each so will that be safe to use?

Thanks!

Ok here are the pictures, whew!
