Highway 89 build problem

[Alpha579]

Hi all,
Ok, ive wired everything up, voltages are looking correct on the perfboard, and i cant see any bugs with wiring, but i only get sound out of the pedal when i touch the volume pot with my hand.  :?
anyone know why this is?
Thanx for any help,
Alex

Are you sure that everything is connected to ground properly at the volume pot? Maybe you have a cold solder joint or something?  :?

Maybe one of the jacks is wired wrong or backward?

Ok, i found i had a faulty volume pot, got it from dick smiths, all my pots from there fail :x . Ive replaced it with an alpha pot 1M, and now i get signal though, but it sounds horrible misbiased. Does anyone have any highway 89 voltage readings i could compare with?
