I am assembling an Octave Fuzz. Everything was going well until I tried to mount the PCB in the enclosure...then when I tried to, the Transformer keeps bumping into the top of the enclosure and the PCB can't reach the pot solder points. Can you think of anything I'm doing wrong? I've tried everything....Did I get the wrong pots or the wrong transformer or ?

As you can probably guess, I was installing the PCB upside down. :oops: I realized it by the time I got to the footswitch. DOH.
Unsoldered the pots and octave switch and soldering it all back up and the pedal works great.

Thanks a bunch!
