Help with DIY guitar pedal

Scornn

New Member
Not having too much luck with this pedal I bought as a project. I am able to get power and bypass but no actual signal when its switched ON. I did take it to a shop to have it looked at and had a resistor replaced and things cleaned up a bit (thats what got the bypass working) but still not working as intended.

This is the data sheet I followed: https://www.diyguitarpedals.com.au/shop/boms/Lich King Chorus.pdf

Next to PLL leads, CD4046, looks like a soldering mess shorting pins ?

Overall soldering looks poor, do you have a schematic ? A oscilloscope ?
A ohmmeter ?

Looks like VR3 pot got damaged by soldering iron....

The IC itself on the bottom or top?

Yeah unfortunately it will, I havent been doing this for too long. I do have a schematic to follow in the link provided and I do have a multimetre.

It still works as I can hear the clock speed changed when I change the value
