STEP 4: Insert the capacitors into the board, bending leads outwards. Solder them and clip them. Save one of the leads for when we build the enclosure. STEP 5: Clip the legs from the transistors, leaving about a quarter-inch of leg. Place them into the sockets. If not using the sockets, place them directly into the board but be careful about heating them. STEP 6: Cut and strip the wire and connect it to the pots and switch, soldering in as you go. I used about 2.5 inches of wire per lead. It’s better to have too much than not enough, but make sure you have enough wire—I had some left over. ToneReport.com ToneReport.com 27 27
