Anyways, I tested the new pot hanging outside of the chassis. It is scratchy, which means I have a bad connection. So I'll re-solder that soon, as well as drill a hole for it to fit inside the amp.

Verified New Potentiometer
I did what everyone in electronics is warned against, and testing my guitar amp with exposed components. I lived, so it's all good. I verified that the new potentiometer, which is a variable resistor, works. Not well. As I said last week, my soldering iron sucks, so I have to take this back to the lab. I was going to wait until I got my 2 way switches in, but I just noticed I ordered them from Honk Kong. Which means 6-8 week shipping.
