Hello everybody

First post here,

I've built this valvecaster based on Renegradian's vero layout

http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=keyalbum.KeywordAlbum&g2_keyword=Vibracaster&g2_itemId=38094

But all i have is an oscillated hum.... All the pots seem to act correctly, but there's a terrible oscillating noise and the guitar sounds very weak.

My transistor are B547TF, and while i was triple cheking the circuit, i founded that my r5 resistor is 3M9.

Any idea???

Thank you very much for your brilliant job, and sorry for my poor English!!

What valve are you using?
Does it work at 12V?
I'm a refugee of the great dropbox purge of '17.
